Does anyone remember the show Unsolved Mysteries from the 80's? I freakin loved that show! Anyway has anybody heard anything about the Lifetime/Dish Network feud going on? Apparently Lifetime was kicked off Dish due to a dispute over a few pennies. Could it be a conspiracy against women in general? More importantly where will I watch my Usolved Mysteries?!

Some other channel will show it I'm sure. A&E perhaps, I don't know.

Oh yeah, I remember that show . . don't get the chance to watch it much. No, haven't heard anything of the Lifetime/Dish dispute. Lifetime is the only satellite/cable channel I know that airs 'Unsolved Mysteries'.

They used to show a double bill of it at midnight every night over here on Living TV, I remember talking to my ex about it one night, who was from from Tennessee, and she was terrified by Robert Stack as a kid.

I do remember one case really sh**ting me up though, and it was about a girl who worked as a clerk in a 24 hr convenience store. She disappeared without trace one night, but people who stopped there in the early hours of the morning remember a biker being behind the counter, serving them. Years later, somebody reported that a biker had apparently tried to sell an American girl to him at a jewellery store in London.

Seriously weird.

I remember the first time I saw the show. I think they were doing a marathon of it or something. I was supposed to go to a birthday party. I got so engrossed in the show that I completely missed the party.

Best mystery show ever. Some of the stories me and my family still talk about and wonder what happened. The best part about the show I watch now is that enough time has passed, they have updates and some of them you say, I knew it was the brother in law, and others your shocked by what turned out to be the truth.

It still comes on at times on comcast. I saw it last month I think.

Wasn't there a guy before Robert Stack? He had huge nose laugh.gif

Karl Malden, he only did two shows after the first one aired. Raymond Burr hosted the first.

I was too! His voice was sooo creepy, everytime I heard of a missing persons case or what not, I would hear his voice in my head sad.gif And everytime they showed a unsolved murder case, I would think, " Why does he stay in that open field?! The murderer can go after him!" It was/is a good show. Anyone know if the show being sold in sets of each season?
frank123
yes, if you have comcast cable, it is on sometime during the afternoon, I forget which channel though. But if you already do not know, they have released I think 4 different sets of dvds. I own the set allabout ghosts. It's worth it too might I add!
cryptosporidium137
Yep. There are DVDs. Not season sets, though. I should be getting the UFO soon. I want it because I have dish network and can't belive that they kicked off Lifetime, which shows Unsolved Mysteries mad.gif

cryptosporidium137
[attachmentid=23040]I also wish they would make new ones. If they do, they should put it on a local network(like that new CW network) I found out that I should be getting the DVDs in a week.

Well, it turns out that the Unsolved Mysteries UFOs DVD set came in the mail today. It is awesome. I think it is all of their UFO stories on 4 discs. They talk about stuff like missing time, Lonnie Zamora's UFO encounter, footage of a landing UFO, and alot more. I almost watched all 6 hours of it today.

Anyone remember a program called "Strange but true" that kicked arse too
captain pish
Strange but true was QUALITY!!!!!!!!!!

Il always remember the story of the enfield poltergiest when it threw stuff at the camera man and made that little girl talk in a scary voice all on tape. It used to scare the sh*t out of me on saturdays. I liked the story of the guy who went to phone his girlfriend, hit the wrong numbers and rang a payphone, only thing was his girlfriend was walking by it at the time and answered the call!!!!!! Thats too freaky.

Pity there are no shows like that on anymore. The only thing ive seen in the last few years thats scared me like that is the ghosts caught on tape on bravo. Now that is some amazing footage. You can see it on google video by typing ghosts caught on tape into the video search.
mars1102
that came on when i wa a kid i liked that and rescue 911...but when they showed skecthes of people and aliens i had to hide my eyes cuz i got scared lol

Ooh. I loved Unsolved Mysteries. I remember when I was younger that everytime I saw the cases happen and Robert asked if anyone could identify any of the cases to write or call [insert information here] and I was so tempted to write to them and say "It's all there on tv! You guys got the bad man on tv, why do you need help in catching them? Won't it be easy to get 'em?"

Mind you all, I was rather young when I watched it. xD I loved the series in general. Now, I only watch "A Haunting", but it doesn't compare to Unsolved Mysteries. :/

Man i miss that show. Wish it was on reruns down here.

Beyond Belief was another great show.

openmind1963
i must have 30 tapes full of nothing but unsolved mysteries buried here somewhere!i was a faithful fan till it went off the air in the late 1990s.
Ghost Ship
Egads! That show has disturbed me many times. Many of their case files still haunt me to this day.
