In my third and final post about law enforcement this week, there is some good news reference the 20+ year old show. America's Most Wanted will be back on TV after shortly being cancelled by FOX due to cost. Lifetime announced that America's Most Wanted will premier on their channel on Friday at 9/8 central. Even though Lifetime is aimed toward women, the shows host John Walsh says it will be the same show.
It shocked me as well as many people around the country when Fox unexpectedly cancelled the show. AMW has been part of Saturday night programming for as long as I can remember. Even if I don't watch the show, I do get see how the show has helped many people. AMW has helped capture around 1,100 fugitives in the shows history. I am glad that Lifetime has signed them, however I was surprised that TRU TV did not sign them as that is the type of show that is on their programming list.
I hope that now that it is on cable the show will not suffer as I believe that it is truly a good show.
I agree, I think it is great that the show will be back on the air. It has helped a lot of people, I hope they can pick up where they left off.
