Swimming to Chicago by David-Matthew Barnes

A few rare episodes during the series run have centered on male perpetrators, while a larger number of episodes have featured men who conspired with the central female perpetrator in the crime. The program is edited in a documentary style, using a central voice-over narration by actress Jody Flader, as well as interviews with people in possession of first-hand knowledge of the case, including law enforcement officials, lawyers, journalists, friends and family members of both the victims and the accused, and at times the criminals or victims themselves.

Often the target is the individual's spouse. The series features non-fiction narratives of people who have committed murder or attempted murder or have been accused of committing or attempting to commit murder. As of November 22, 2020, 500 original episodes of Snapped have aired. The show also played a large role in the decision by parent company NBCUniversal to relaunch Oxygen as a crime network in 2017. It has since become the network's longest-running original series, with its 28 defined seasons and sixteen years in production (and two spin-offs) outlasting the seventeen seasons and thirteen years of the Bad Girls Club. Each episode outlines the motivation for murder, whether it be revenge against a cheating husband or lover, a large insurance payoff, or the ending to years of abuse, with each murder's circumstances as unique as the women profiled. The series depicts high profile or bizarre cases of women accused of murder.

Snapped is an American true crime television series produced by Jupiter Entertainment.
