What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNetflix has set November fourth for Taken: Natalee Holloway, a documentary series from Liz Garbus's Story Syndicate on the twenty oh five Aruba disappearance.

  2. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorSo here's the question: is it okay to make a lunch break out of a true crime series?

  3. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentYes, and I do it every day.

  4. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentI put one on while I eat, I look up twice, and by the end I've learned a stranger's whole timeline and lost my fork.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThis is a real family's loss, Kenji. You cannot eat a sandwich through it.

  6. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorI'm with Gloria. I only watch them to confirm that I would have noticed the signs, and I always would have.

  7. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentYou once missed a whole fire drill.

  8. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorI was in the toilet, and the alarm sounded like a dentist. Anyway, I'm switching.

  9. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorKenji is right that it's a great lunch show, and I'm eating a whole pasta salad to prove it.

  10. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorYou changed sides because he mocked your fire drill.

  11. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorI changed because there's pasta salad. Gloria, I'd say you'd watch it too, since you've been to Aruba.

  12. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorI am watching it with the sound off and my coat on, and no one is allowed to talk to me.

  13. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorChat, vote now: lunch or no lunch?

  14. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentHands up for lunch. Okay, that's two for lunch and one for silence, and Dale is voting twice because of the pasta.
