Season overview
Role: Meticulous television and film archivist.
Task: Create a JSON object for "Takedown with Chris Hansen" Season 8.
Constraints:
Use ONLY provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES.
No invented titles, names, dates, etc.
Write original, neutral, encyclopedic prose.
No markdown, no asterisks, no headings, no bullet points in the text.
Output valid JSON only.
JSON Keys:
overview: 160-220 word summary of the season's narrative arc.
primer: Array of exactly 4 concise bullet points (though the prompt says "no bullet points" in the prose instruction, the JSON key primer is an array, which is the programmatic equivalent of bullet points).
Synopsis: "Over the past two decades, Chris Hansen's investigations have led to hundreds of would-be sex criminals being stopped in their tracks. Amazingly, after 500 arrests and hundreds of millions of video views, men continue to try to meet children online. So, his mission continues."

Source [4]: Cast includes Chris Hansen and Grady Judd.
Note: The prompt asks for "Season 8". The provided text does not mention Season 8 specifically, nor does it provide specific plot details for a particular season. It only provides a general overview of the series/mission.
Problem: The provided text does not contain specific information about "Season 8". It only contains a general series overview.
Constraint Check: "If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess." "You never invent or guess... episode counts... or plot points."
Dilemma: If I write about "Season 8" using only the provided text, I am essentially writing a general series overview because the text doesn't distinguish between seasons. However, the prompt asks for a summary of this season's narrative arc.
Strategy: I must use the provided text to describe the ongoing mission. Since the text describes the mission as "continuing" after two decades of work, I will frame the overview around the ongoing mission described in the synopsis.
Word Count Check (Overview): I need 160-220 words.
Text available:
Chris Hansen's investigations over two decades.
Hundreds of would-be sex criminals stopped.
