American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace


The second season of the terrific American Crime Story runs as The Assassination of Gianni Versace.

Lead Darren Criss is fantastic as Andrew Cunanan and real life killer of Versace, played by Edgar Ramirez. Ricky Martin and Penelope Cruz round of the four main stars of this season. No Sarah Paulson this Ryan Murphy series and by the looks of the ratings the gay storyline might be a bit much for US viewers.

The ratings are a fair bit lower than last seasons OJ Simpson court case however the production, the mystery and Miami as a backdrop are all making this season and easy new viewing pleasure.

This week will see episode three of nine air and I for one can hardly wait.



Eight, nine or ten episode mini-series/seasons are the new black for me. America and it's long ass 22-23 episode seasons over a seven month season are way too much for me these days.

Darren Criss really is outstanding as the misguided killer and it begs the question, what were the FBI and police doing to try and track this handsome young killer who was on the loose.

Always adding in extra drama to real life events however this is an interesting series non the less.

The Assassination of Gianni Versace is the next chapter in the golden age of TV. Watch it NOW!
