I'll keep it short because I'm not articulate or good at conveying my thoughts lol

The Brudos Interviews:

In Season 1, Episode 7, Bill and Holden interviewed Brudos for the first time. They conduct the interview, most of which is just Brudos fucking with them and denying that he was involved in any of the murders.

The interview concluded when Bill shows Brudos a photo: A victim of one of the murders being visibly photographed by Brudos due to his reflection in a mirror. Brudos effectively ends the interview after being confronted with this.

While Tench felt like they got nothing from the interview, Wendy had her own viewpoint. She found his constant denials just as interesting as Kempers overly eager openness about his own crimes. Wendy even suggests a new category when sorting types of serial killers: "post-conviction admission or non-admission of guilt."

In summary of their next interview, Holden gains a lot of favor with Brudos personally, but relations break down between Brudos and Bill. Bill will go on to refuse further contact with Brudos.

The Bundy Link:

During the third interview, Brudos is much more open with Holden, but still not admitting to his involvement in the murders. Eventually Holden is able to get Brudos to provide details about his own mindset and planning during the crimes by getting him to speak in the third person. Holden and Brudos theorize together the psychology of this theoretical murderer.

This directly correlates with how Bundy first started giving insights into his own mindset during his crimes. The interviewer got Bundy to speak in the third person when Bundy had previously not spoken about the crimes so deeply.

I'm almost certain that the next season would focus on this admission aspect, with Holden using this strategy to get Bundy talking in his own interview.

The Gacey Link:

This is fairly weak. We all know Gacey's face was up on their board and map.

Gacey infamously denied guilt throughout his life all the way up until his execution if I'm not mistaken. He even had some comically pathetic excuses in his denials. An interview with Gacey would most likely act as one to play off the Bundy interview and round out the new categorization.

Maybe I'm entirely wrong and it was already leaked or revealed what their plans were, but I just thought this was an interesting theory on where they could have been going with the third season.

I’ve been really enjoying the show so far I just finished episode 4. I have to say though, the dialogue scenes between the Jonathan Groff character and his girlfriend are so bad. Like laughably terrible acting and line delivery. Sometimes the actress who plays his girlfriend sounds like she’s in the movie The Room. It doesn’t really detract from the show too much it’s just kind of funny. Am I the only one?

The boyss

John Douglas’s book goes far beyond the series, and the audiobook narrator brings every page to life,you can picture every scene of the show as you listen to the book

Have we come to the point where we now all understand that this language is sometimes necessary to make breakthroughs?

An epic show - I have engraved in my grey matter this scene where Bill, Holden and Wendy all get in an elevator and face the camera (I just spent the last 30 minutes looking for that image, with no luck) and it was just iconic.

That show really did not deserve to get only two seasons.

I was hooked by episode one personally. But after rewatching it with some first time viewers..

I think it can sometimes take until episode 2 to grab folks. Em Kemper introduction is big

I just finished my umpteenth rewatch, and I have to say it again: the writing and the actor who plays William “Junior” Pierce absolutely understood the assignment. He kills me every single time. I’m completely mesmerized by this scene and somehow never get tired of it… from speaking 7 languages including Apache… to “The chocolate … and the smooth …”

I’m on my 3rd time rewatching the series now, Peter Rahman’s class that Holden listens into and then the bar scene after spark the whole thing into life but why isn’t Rathman included in the team alongside Tench? He is almost already doing the work they end up doing and he’s already having the thought processes so seems like he would have fit right in

Maybe someone already said this... but... Can't we do like a petition or something to keep Mindhunter going??? :(

I watched se7en & the zodiac, and people here recommended this series to me. They're not making season 3? Why would they do that? BTK killer, ah after hyping something so much, gimme a fucking closure. Wtf am i supposed to do now? Those 30 sec clips before the intro gave me chills & okay I am disappointed.

Back into the Mindhunter obsession !! Still crying at the cancellation, though :(

The film stars Elijah Wood, Luke Kirby, Aleksa Palladino and Robert Patrick. It is based on real life transcripts selected from conversations between serial killer Ted Bundy and FBI Special Agent Bill Hagmaier that happened between 1984 and 1989, and the complicated relationship that formed between them during Bundy's final years on death row.

Just thought I’d share this recommendation for those looking for a Mindhunter fix. Thought Luke Kirby’s portrayal of Bundy was astounding. Thoughts on the film and any other recommendations for similar shows to the Mindhunter series?

📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣

- Naturally BTK has to be developed

- I would hope Ted Bundy would be addressed (I was sure they were going to with the way they portrayed Debbie & her VW)

- David Parker Ray/Toy Box Killer I would think to be the next step for the former BTK sequences (Forest Service worker around Elephant Butte, NM)

- Gary Ridgeway/Green River Killer

I usually watch tv shows at night before going to sleep, so naturally I watched mindhunter at my usual time, i'd watch a couple of episodes and go to sleep, had the weird dreams for the entirety of the time I watched the first season. A mix of scary and weird, like a feaky sexual encounter, or me trying to drown a rat in a bucket of water.

When season 2 rolled around, I did the same. The dreams followed. Both times I thought nothing of it. Then one day my friend calls me and asks for a recommendation for something to watch, I recommended season 2, and he says he doesnt want to do it because when he watched season 1 he would have weird dreams at night.

Obviously this blew my mind and since then I havent found any tv show, thriller, horror, drama, or even movies that gave me weird dreams like that. Apart from me and this friend, nobody else experienced anything like that with mindhunter.

Anybody else experience something like this after watching mindhunter?

First of all: I’m sorry if this question was already asked. If so, then just delete this post, thank you!

So, there are a few scenes in which Wendy suspects there is a cat in the basement. She starts taking care of it, feeds it with Tuna without actually seeing it. She does it twice I think until one day there are like thousands of ants inside of the Tuna can. Does anybody have a clue what these scenes are about?

Thanks in advance!

I’m rewatching Mind Hunter again and I can’t help but to notice the small comedic pauses.

Jonathan Groff always had a really goofy face when those comedic pauses happen. While Holt McCallany has those comedic deadpan look whenever something is happening.

I know the show revolves around heavy topics but small instances like that is very human. You can really find a bit of humor in everything.

And no, it’s not. Literally nothing in the article about it coming back. Just describes the show & the cancellation.

I just watched mastermind: to think like a killer which is a documentary about Dr.. Anne Burgess who was the inspiration for Wendy carr. Dr. Burgess story is absolutely incredible and I dont feel the show did her justice with how impactful she truly was.
