Top 10 American Crime Shows
VOICE OVER: Dan Paradis
Script written by Matt Wende.
It may or may not pay, but crime is an excellent source for great television. In this video, http://www.WatchMojo.com counts down our picks for the top 10 list of American crime shows. For this list, we're looking at shows with main characters that focus on the investigation and solving of crimes and the pursuit of criminals, so Heisenberg is going to have to be king of some other list. Also, as the title suggests, due to the great quality of crime shows coming from the United Kingdom, we've limited this list to crime shows from the United States. Apologies to all you cumber-bitches, as well as fans of “Luther,” but you get your own list.
