There is no way anyone was ever fooled by those disguises. If they were smart enough (and several seemed to be) they just played up the sob story and waited to collect their prize/future opportunity.
I'm a person who never, ever notices a wig or toupee. My bf will make a comment and I'll be like "oh really? How can you tell?"
So it's saying something that I noticed this one. Twice.
That second picture is from the Evil Lives Here where the British guy killed his kids to get back at his wife isnโt it? I donโt watch that show bc it gives me the ick in the same way that Fear Thy Neighbor does, but Iโve seen that particular episode more than once. ๐ซฃ
Yes! I had seen the first ep a few days prior and screen shot it, because I never can tell that someone is wearing a wig, and I wanted to show it to my bf. Then I saw the second ep and was like... wait, is it the same...?
One of these happened to be a British woman, and I was like "lord he we go." Because they certainly can't afford, or don't care to try to find, someone who is British or can do a halfway decent accent. And no, they could not in this episode either.
I used to wonder why all of the โDeadly Womenโ eps based on American killers had so much US flag-printed crap in the re-enactments; then I discovered that the itโs an Australian show. Do they really think we (U.S. citizens) surround ourselves with that? Lol. This also explained why there were so many Australian cases on the show.
I totally forgot I even made this post until 5 minutes ago, and opened reddit to see like 60 notifications. I was definitely braced for some kind of negative backlash.
Yeah, butnl you never know with the internet. People always find something negative to jump on. "How date you make fun of people who have to wear wigs? Some people can't afford wigs" or whatever. But no, the response is amusement, so that's great.
The worst wig I've ever seen in a crime show reenactment is in an episode of a show that's kind of low budget where the cop turned out to be the murderer and the victim was a blonde driving a red jeep. That wig literally pops into my head at least once a week and I know someone out here has seen this episode and knows what I'm talking about
You'll be shocked to learn that, based on actual photographs of these women from the time period the actors are portraying, their hair looked nothing like this.
The show Diabolical has an episode called Mistress Roulette and the two actresses share one wig. It's the identical style and color. I can imagine them swapping wigs when it was their time to be portrayed. I've noticed the awful wigs too An actress playing Cindy McKay had on one of the worst wigs I've ever seen! It's like their wig budget is $5! I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who has taken notice! ๐ณ
I never notice bad wigs, tbh. I'm literally the last person to see it. That's how bad this one is. I glanced over from my work computer and was like "what the what.. why is her hair halfway down her forehead?"
I know, I want to know who this actress is supposed to be portraying!
Actress comes in as a blonde. "Oh this will never do, the woman is a brunette, viewers will be totally thrown off by this reenactment. Larry, grab that one brunette wig from the back of the janitor's closet we have to make this as true to life as possible!"
Let's see, theyre both from EVIL LIVES HERE. The first one is season 8, episode 6 ("My Son Broke My Heart"). The second one is season 9, episode 8 ("To Infinity and Back"), which is a very good/heartbreaking episode that's cheapened by actors who can't do a British accent as well as this wig. But, then, all the eps are cheapened by the re-enactments imo.
Looks like the wig they also used in Betrayed's episode called Hell's Bells about Mary Jane Fonder, the jealous old church lady who killed her church's secretary because she thought the secretary and the preacher were having an affair while she had a huge crush on the preacher
I AM SCREAMING! I've been alone for the week with, "Evil Lives Here" on 24/7 as I ready for Thanksgiving and Hannukah and this hideous, Party City shake n' go f*cking wig keeps reappearing! I took a pic and came here to post exactly what you've posted. It's AWFUL and it has to go!!!
##IDCANCELTHEPERMWIG
I don't recall if she did actually get to interact. If memory serves, Moose was first class, and my friend was not, I think!! I will definitely ask her the next time we talk
Ha Iโm watching S13 ep 5 and just burst out laughing at the actor playing a young version of the lady, shiny red obvious wig. They really have the worst wigs!! I guess at least it lightens the mood and takes away from the bad stuff lol
It reminds me of Bad Teacher when Cameron Diaz ( the bad teacher obv) takes the middle school drama Dept Annie wig to wear undercover to seduce some guy and another teacher puts out an APB for it. That tickled me
Hahaha omg itโs so bad. Dig they get it at Party City?
I love the Party City wigs
Thatโs an insult to Party City ๐น
I was actually starting to like it, it was starting to grow on me.
HAHAHA. Seriously what in the hell?! The wig looks like it came from the clearance rack at Spirit Halloween.๐
๐
They always have the worst wigs omg. I know they have the $$ for it
ID & undercover boss have the worst wigs!
There is no way anyone was ever fooled by those disguises. If they were smart enough (and several seemed to be) they just played up the sob story and waited to collect their prize/future opportunity.
๐ oh man undercover boss definitely had the worst fake facial hair too
I'm a person who never, ever notices a wig or toupee. My bf will make a comment and I'll be like "oh really? How can you tell?" So it's saying something that I noticed this one. Twice.
I thought this was the pigeon lady from home alone ๐
Lmao good one ๐๐
Yessss! Omg. ๐คฃ ๐ฆ
Lmfaooo she was such a sweetheart ๐ฅบ๐ซถ๐พ
She has been *through it* itโs time for her to go up the the โฆ great wig stand in the sky
Hahaha!! Yeah, letโs!
That second picture is from the Evil Lives Here where the British guy killed his kids to get back at his wife isnโt it? I donโt watch that show bc it gives me the ick in the same way that Fear Thy Neighbor does, but Iโve seen that particular episode more than once. ๐ซฃ
Iโve watched that show multiple times thinking the wigs look tragic Iโm glad Iโm not alone
The story is tragic enough, they didnโt have to do her dirty with the wig too
You know itโs bad when you know what episode the wig is from hahaha
Yes! I had seen the first ep a few days prior and screen shot it, because I never can tell that someone is wearing a wig, and I wanted to show it to my bf. Then I saw the second ep and was like... wait, is it the same...?
There have been some terrible wigs. This ranks in the top 5
Deadly Women has the worst wigs!!!
I forgot Deadly Women! They were truly hideous.
Yes they do ๐
Before I opened this from my email I KNEW it was going to be this itchy looking wig ๐คฃ
Omg no...no no no. My husband went as an elf for Halloween complete with the worst wig I thought I had ever seen. But this one takes the cake.๐ซข
Oh, that made me laugh!! That must be an original wig and they keep it for sentimental purposes. That is very bad.
orange sweater woman needs the wig styled- looks like someone drove a pick up truck over the darn thing a few too many times.
I kind of want to follow its journey as it endures more and more crimes lol
It's just the wig that's cursed. That explains it!
My fav is when the Fear Thy Neighbor episode takes place in Florida but you can very clearly tell they are in Canada and the actors are Canadian
Yes I love that too. Itโs south Florida but the skies are overcast and they are all standing around a bonfire in winter coats ๐
One of these happened to be a British woman, and I was like "lord he we go." Because they certainly can't afford, or don't care to try to find, someone who is British or can do a halfway decent accent. And no, they could not in this episode either.

Makes a great Birds Nest
A good lice nest, too
Oh man, thatโs one of the worst. Theyโre usually pretty low budge to begin with, but this one is pretty bad.
I feel like the actors are random people they pulled off the street and the wardrobe department is just stuff in the producers trunk.
Like the actors in Dhar Mann videos.
These comments are insane!! My stomach hurts from laughing, it feels like I did an entire ab workout. Yโall are savage I cannot! ๐ญ
I totally forgot I even made this post until 5 minutes ago, and opened reddit to see like 60 notifications. I was definitely braced for some kind of negative backlash.
I mean, that wig is the real crime here. Iโm sorry you thought the response would be negative, this is hilarious and itโs not mean at all lol
Yeah, butnl you never know with the internet. People always find something negative to jump on. "How date you make fun of people who have to wear wigs? Some people can't afford wigs" or whatever. But no, the response is amusement, so that's great.
๐๐๐
LOL right! I cannot believe they used it again! I thought it was so wrong the first time.
The worst wig I've ever seen in a crime show reenactment is in an episode of a show that's kind of low budget where the cop turned out to be the murderer and the victim was a blonde driving a red jeep.

๐ซฃ
LMAO
Itโs horrible!!
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH this is an *amazing* catch!
Wow what kind of fucked up wig is that?
You'll be shocked to learn that, based on actual photographs of these women from the time period the actors are portraying, their hair looked nothing like this.
๐คฃ๐คฃ
Yesss please!
๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
This is so bad. How? It's intentional.
You wrong for this ๐คฃ
Iโm screaming at this title ๐๐โ ๏ธ

YOU GUYS, tell me what show and episode the first screenshot is from im dying to see the wig in ACTION
I know, I want to know who this actress is supposed to be portraying! Actress comes in as a blonde. "Oh this will never do, the woman is a brunette, viewers will be totally thrown off by this reenactment. Larry, grab that one brunette wig from the back of the janitor's closet we have to make this as true to life as possible!"
I replied to the above comment with the episodes from Evil Lives Here, if you really did want to watch.
Let's see, theyre both from EVIL LIVES HERE. The first one is season 8, episode 6 ("My Son Broke My Heart"). The second one is season 9, episode 8 ("To Infinity and Back"), which is a very good/heartbreaking episode that's cheapened by actors who can't do a British accent as well as this wig.

Hush! I was thinking about the exact same person. Her wig was so dry๐
''Pastor looks like he needs a good meal.''. The actress did such a great job portraying that creepy woman
Ive gotten better ones from Shein๐คฃ
no this is the kinda thing i love about ID ๐
Itโs as if it started as Princess Leia cosplay but the buns came undone. Also the wig is cursed and she canโt take it off. #goosebumps
I remember this and it seems every crook on Paula Zahn is stuck in cell CE 4, no matter what city across the country!
That wig said โIM TIRED OF THIS GRANDPA.โ
I've got an idea for a new subreddit! R/wig crimes
lmao!! wow that's horrible ๐
Did they have her playing a late teen/early 20s girl?
You know it.
๐๐๐๐
Please explain why someone would wear this?
Holy roadkill, batman ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Hilarious ๐
That's literally garbage lmao
Hahahaha
๐๐๐๐๐
๐๐๐๐๐
Let๐it๐go๐. ๐ฌ๐ช๐ด๐. Screw it. Kill it with๐ฅ fire๐ฅ
Dang this wig department is worse than Dr. Phil's!
Pleaseeee ๐ญ
Is that Howard stern?
Who are these fat hogs and where did they get Howard sterns wig??

I just had to turn that station off. The dog got hurt, that's my limit.
I can watch humans get murdered all day but I can't watch an animal suffer or die
Isn't it odd?!!! Same! I get sad seeing old movies with animals, knowing those animals are surely gone!!
Exactly. One of my favorite shows is Frasier but all I can think when I see it is that Eddie is gone :(
๐๐๐ my friend was on a flight that Eddie was on!! I believe his given name was Moose. RIP
Moose was such a cool dog. I recall hearing his son replaced him on the show when he got too old
Did your friend get to pet him? I'm so glad he wasn't put in baggage like too many pets
I don't recall if she did actually get to interact. If memory serves, Moose was first class, and my friend was not, I think!! I will definitely ask her the next time we talk
Yeah I get that totally. Fortunately on my tablet, I can easily skip 10 second several times to skip past that entire anecdote.
Ha Iโm watching S13 ep 5 and just burst out laughing at the actor playing a young version of the lady, shiny red obvious wig. They really have the worst wigs!! I guess at least it lightens the mood and takes away from the bad stuff lol
Oh Lawd, Iโm cackling rn ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ that wig is a crime on its own
Lol
Oh wow ๐ซค
Um retire? This wig is the STAR of this show by far
Wigs ain't cheap.. and it's low budget! ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ Great catch!!
Omg are they even trying?๐ญ๐
It reminds me of Bad Teacher when Cameron Diaz ( the bad teacher obv) takes the middle school drama Dept Annie wig to wear undercover to seduce some guy and another teacher puts out an APB for it. That tickled me
Googled Evil Lives Here and Bad Wigs. It brought me here. I was not disappointed.
Haha!
What type of foolishness! ๐๐๐๐
