Do you do that too?

I'm glad Lifetime picked up the show after the FOX Network canceled the show. Fox said the ratings were to low. I no longer watch anything on Fox, as clearly they don't want a show that helps people. Many people have called in when they have seen a criminal and saved many lives. I want to watch a network that is caring and helpful.

My mom used to love this show. Of course I'm talking about the years before the dementia took over. She would watch it every time it was on. I guess Lifetime has it now except for when FOX does it's special. I like how they were going to take it off like a decade ago, but the FBI pleaded with them to keep it because it caught so many criminals. Now that's TV that makes a difference.

I have watched this show for twenty five years but it was never to see if there was anyone on there we needed to turn in. Of course I would have but that was never the reason behind watching it. I would help the police and get the bad guys off the street to be sure.

When it comes to this ignorance is bliss for us..lol but really we are scared we'll see his brother on there.

That is really good thinking. Luckily you happen to be in a country which wants and has good law enforcers. Here at my place, you would be calling trouble if you even thought to call the cops. I have had my bitter experiences and so I stay away from the cops - as distant as I can be (legally)

I haven't seen that show in years now. I used to watch it all the time. About two weeks ago they were filming right around the corner from where I live. I forgot about it until my brother told me. But they were done filming. I have to look and see if I can catch that episode on TV. It would be interesting to watch.

There is a local version of that show in our country. Not exactly the same, but with the same theme but I barely watch it because I am not really into this kind of shows. I once watched America's Most Wanted, and felt so bad at the victim and so disgusted at the criminal. It really got to my emotions, and that is probably why I don't really want to watch such episodes that much.

I don't know what I'd do if I found out someone I knew was in trouble enough that they make it to that show. We do need to get criminals off the street but society also needs to do things so they do not follow such a path in the first place.

we use to watch it all the time. every now and then will i still watch it tho. i will not say that we watch it to help the police out but at the same time if i saw someone that was on the show i would definately turn them in because they wouldnt be on the show if they were not dangerous. it would be really hard turning someone in that i know and trust but if that is the case then i wouldnt have a choice. i guess it is a little hard to decide what i would actually do if that truely happened to me. everyone on that show has lived some crazzy lives with a lot of lieing and a lot of violence. i am glad i have never encountered someone like this.

This reminds me as a kid we use to watch it. Years ago, my sister and I were watching it. This guys picture and name came up it was the same first, middle and last name of my Dad. The picture sort of looked like my Dad except the picture the guy was black and my dad is white. We sat out in our tent all night thinking my dad killed someone.

hi lmb....yes! absolutely, i have done this...also because it is interesting...but it really happens, i saw a true crime show about a year ago which told about a lady who recognized her neighbor on america's most wanted and turned him in...come to find out he was wanted in a very famous murder case, he was the perp john list..and he had killed his entire family and fled and took up a job and remarried with a fake name and ssn...well the lady saw a thing about the case on america's most wanted, and they had done one of those age progression mask things and it looked just like her neighbor, who had a different name by that time, but she turned him in...the mask thing looked way creepy and so did the man, the whole thing was just evil, he slaughtered his family and left a confession note to their pastor and then just went on with his life...but anyway i think america's most wanted has done a lot of good...

I do this every once in a blue moon, then hope i find someone. Unfortunatley I have yet to catch a sigle one of them. It's kind of sad how long they are allowed to carry on creepy messed up lives without being caught.
