Death Row Stories (2014) A documentary series about the state of the U.S. legal system and the death penalty. Stories told by the people who have lived on death row and some exonerated. Over zealous prosecutors and the lack of their culpability in a tremendously flawed system. In America CNN is by and large still a cable news outlet, but a movement under the leadership of network president Jeff Zucker to provide more alternative, entertainment-based programming is clearly afoot, and `Death Row Stories' is a prime example. The eight-part documentary - the result of a collaboration with Academy Award-winning directors Robert Redford (`Ordinary People') and Alex Gibney (`Taxi to the Dark Side') - revisits compelling capital murder cases in the US, detailing the twists and turns involved in each as a thought-provoking exercise on the death penalty and the American justice system. `Dead Man Walking' Oscar winner Susan Sarandon is the narrator. Redford's Sundance Productions also partnered with CNN for the documentary series `Chicagoland'.
