Just to add, we're those the only people on that huge boat? Or maybe there was an isolated area used for filming.
I definitely caught a glimpse of what looked like regular cruise guests a few times. And I would love to hear from them about being on vacation on the set of a reality show.

This interview gave me a little hope that the series will be on the darker side. The clips they have shown so far, IMO, seemed more Scooby-doo than drama. I know it's being touted as a "Supernatural Love Story," but I truly hope it's more character driven and darker.
Totally agree. The marketing seems to have taken a darker tone lately, a hopeful sign in my book.

Yeah but can you just order somebody who is only charged with something to home detention? That seems like imprisonment without a conviction.
There is of course detention while awaiting trial but that is to prevent high risk suspects from fleeing. I don't see how home detention would accomplish that.
It's just pre-trial detention, happens all the time. He'll get an ankle monitor.
Also, new Serial coverage coming tomorrow!

But how can he be given home detention if the conviction is overturned? Anybody versed in american law as to how something like this is possible?
The charges have not been dropped, just the conviction. So as of right now, he's still charged with the murder. The state will decide if they want to retry the case or not.

Are there any other details on this? IMDB tells me it's an 8-part miniseries starring Keanu Reeves, but not much else. I enjoyed the book, and I'd like to know more about this. When/where is it airing?
I think all we know beyond that is it will be on Hulu. Haven't seen any other details.

Alex Wagner as the chosen host does make me happy. I think choosing someone who isn't just entertainment focused seems like a good sign.

So I'm glad he seems to be getting a new trial now, even though he didn't get one 4 years ago, because again, the standards for appeals in US a completely unreasonable. Justice reform has to start there.
Assuming there's more evidence than what was included in the new filing, I think there's a strong chance they don't even go for a new trial for Adnan Syed. He's been locked up for 23 years already.
I do wonder if we'll get anything from Sarah Koenig on this, depending on what the judge decides.

Oh there is apparently more than the new DNA. Apparently the prosecutor at the time failed to hand over a WHOLE lot of exculpatory evidence. Like there were 2 suspects that were never cleared -- one of whom had THREATENED TO KILL Ms. Lee. They also failed to mention that where her car was found was RIGHT BEHIND where a family member of one of the suspect's lived. In less surprising news, the cop who worked the case turned out to be "unreliable." Or you know, your average Baltimore City cop. So yeah, this is gonna be a hot mess. And the City of Baltimore is going to be paying the Syed family a WHOLE TON of money.
I do feel for the Lee family. They still don't know who killed her because the cops were too busy framing the nearest Muslim guy.
Yeah I just finished reading the article and there's a lot. The only good news for the Lee family is they would have been informed about this before it went public so they had some time to prepare, however possible that is.

Wait, not yet.
It was announced today that Baltimore Prosecutors will file to VACATE the murder conviction.
https://www.wsj.com/articles/adnan-syed-serial-podcast-vacate-murder-conviction-11663163015
They want a new trial, but they want him released in the meantime. I am presuming if they vacate the conviction, he gets to start back at square one with a presumption of innocence. Apparently the DNA turned up TWO alternative suspects.
This is wild, and huge. I really didn't expect anything substantial to come from the new DNA testing.

S01.E05: Human Lie Detector
in The Mole
Same, and it's making me wonder if she's the mole.
For the first few episodes I was annoyed at how much everyone was trying to mole, but I kind of got used to it now and can just enjoy the show.
I really liked the mail train task. Entertaining to watch and an interesting combination of skills to complete.
