Brian Vadim and Steven Staine Fernandez also portray detectives who work on the cases featured in the series.

From the opening credits, viewers can sense the show’s dark and edgy tone. Each episode begins with a reenacted crime scene that sets the stage for the story to come. The show tells the story of each case through a combination of reenactments, interviews with the loved ones of the victims, detectives who worked on the case, and journalists who covered the stories as they unfolded.

One of the standout features of the show is the attention paid to the victims of the crimes. Every episode showcases the victim’s life and personality, as well as the impact their loss had on their loved ones. The show’s producers have successfully humanized the victims, making viewers see them not just as names on a police report, but as people with lives and families, whose deaths left a permanent void.

Another highlight of the series is the focus on how the crimes were solved. Viewers get an inside look at how the detectives worked tirelessly to piece together the evidence, track down leads, and finally bring the perpetrator to justice. The show’s producers have given viewers a glimpse into the ins and outs of a homicide investigation. From the initial crime scene investigation to the moment the detectives make an arrest, the audience is taken on a journey to solve the case together with the detectives.

The cases featured on Homicide City: Charlotte are all different, spanning a wide range of motives and circumstances. From financially motivated murders to crimes of passion, the show takes the audience on an emotional rollercoaster through the crimes, which are often disturbing and shocking. Each story builds up to the moment when detectives finally solve the case, which often brings a sense of closure for the victim's families.

The show is beautifully shot, with moody and atmospheric lighting that sets the tone for the brooding material. The reenactments are well-acted, and the production values are high. The interviews with the detectives and members of the victim's families are raw and honest, with no attempt to sugarcoat the emotional toll these deaths have had on the people involved.

Kelsey Nichole Black is an excellent host, who guides viewers through the cases with a great deal of compassion and empathy. Her insightful commentary adds a lot of value to the show, and the audience can sense how deeply she cares about the cases.

Overall, Homicide City: Charlotte is a well-produced and engrossing true crime show. It is not for the faint of heart, as the content can be disturbing and emotionally intense. But for those who are fascinated by the inner workings of a homicide investigation, and who crave a deeper understanding of the lives lost in these cases, the show is an excellent choice.
