No, I haven't.

And rather than try to infer your implication(s) about Investigation Discovery I will ask directly:

- Do they treat murder as a venue for entertainment? - Are they seemingly indifferent to the impact on victims?

Because, if it was not clear, those were the points I was trying to convey about the unhealthy aspects of Quibi's show.

Well, they're definitely not indifferent to the victims. ID has a bunch of different shows, but a lot of them involve interviews with victims interspersed with the story but they certainly seem sympathetic to their situation.

As far as it being a "venue for entertainment," well, the basis of the channel is crime stories, primarily murders and it would be a stretch to say that it's for educational purposes, so...
