Fatal Attraction is a true crime television series that premiered on TV One in 2013. The show is hosted and narrated by Lynn Whitfield, who guides viewers through each episode's horrific story of love gone terribly wrong. Each episode of Fatal Attraction is based on real-life events and showcases the deadly consequences of obsession, passion, and jealousy. The series explores some of the most notorious cases where love and relationships resulted in destruction, often leading to tragic endings.

The show's episodes are structured around reenactments of the events that led up to the crimes, as well as interviews with friends, family members, law enforcement officials, and sometimes even the perpetrators themselves. Various professionals in the field of psychology also weigh in on the possible motives behind the often shocking crimes.

The show's title refers to the idea that the perpetrator in each episode becomes "fatal attraction" – someone who's obsessive love and jealousy leads to dangerous behavior, and ultimately, serious crimes. The show seeks to explore the psychology behind these deadly attractions and provide insight into human behavior that can often be both fascinating and chilling.

One of the show's most well-known episodes features the story of former NFL player, Rae Carruth, who hired hitmen to murder his ex-girlfriend, Cherica Adams, while she was pregnant. Other episodes involve stories of jealousy leading to murder, such as the case of a woman who killed her husband's mistress or the woman who killed her own children to prevent her ex-husband from gaining custody.

Another episode features the story of the Jekyll and Hyde killer, a man who murdered multiple women over the course of several years. The show explores how the killer was able to hide in plain sight and manipulate those around him while committing heinous crimes.

Throughout the series, Lynn Whitfield's narration adds a layer of solemnity that drives home the gravity of the crimes being depicted. Her voiceover provides context for each episode and helps viewers understand the intricate psychology of the people involved.

Overall, Fatal Attraction is a gripping true crime series that delves into the dark side of love and the devastation that can result from unhealthy obsessions. It's a cautionary tale of the often fatal consequences of uncontrolled emotions and the terrible toll it can take on lives – both the perpetrators and victims.
