View Full Version : Which (unrelated) people profiled on UM do you think would be friends?
Oldschooler81 09-22-2010, 12:59 AM In contrast to the hypothetical or analytical things I tend to do more often, just thought I'd ask this more lighthearted question. :)
I've often wondered how certain people on the show would've gotten along with each other (at the time their case was profiled). For instance, I can imagine 1987 Jenny Pratt and 1995 Melody Woods having a kinship because they were cool/nice teen girls who just had slightly overprotective parents and a liking of bad boys, which indicates a bit of a rebellios streak.
Before they were murdered, I wonder if realtor Jack Brown and Roger Dean would've gotten along. They both seemed like high rolling 80s yuppie corporate types...for the most part family men who may have done some underhanded things (though obviously nothing that deserved their lives being taken).
Just for fun, I wonder who wouldn't like each other, or something wacky might go down if they ever met?
Of course there's some people you'd certainly hope never got to team up with each other - i.e. scum like Jim Burnside and Mark Nichols!
WishfulDreamer 09-22-2010, 01:26 AM The skeptic who showed up in many, many episodes (including the Bible Code, etc.) and the skeptic in the visions in the trees up in Kentucky episode. I could totally see them hanging out and talking about other things they don't believe. :D

Good one, lol. Another two guys could join them - the skeptic from the spontaneous human combustion segment (i.e. saying to the effect of "Nonbelievers should shut the hell up") and the skeptic in the After Death visits.
MegtheEgg86 09-22-2010, 03:59 PM John Cheek and David Stone--young professional men, both in similar fields, highly successful at a young age. Both disappeared. As long as David wouldn't convince John he needed to go on a vision quest, I could see that being a great friendship.

Apostapler 09-23-2010, 02:15 AM Jon Vogel and Todd Mueller, although if Jon Vogel was smart he'd do all the masterminding in that relationship.
MegtheEgg86 09-23-2010, 02:42 AM I could see Lee Selwyn, Gus Hoffman, Jay Durham, Tom Roche, and Michael Hunter having a great talk about bikes and riding if they got together. Any morbidity present in that statement is unintended.
Apostapler 09-23-2010, 06:39 AM Jerry Strickland and Danny Wheeler could have a talk show. :lol:

Even though I'm not personally a motorcycle fan, they all seemed like easygoing cool guys (at least Jay Durham is still alive). I agree they probably would've bonded despite their different ages and backgrounds at the time of the broadcasts due to all being bikers.
Apostapler, that'd be a hilarious talk show, if they ever had a topic on cleaning they could invite Paul Pollis. :lol:

Absolutely. "They should shut up and get a life!" That always cracked me up. Not exactly the most professional way to speak in an interview. They could have a great skeptic party!
Howard Drummond and Gertrude Pruitt, nothing like some fresh fruitcake after having 2 eggs, bacon and rye toast for $1.99.
UMFaninMD 06-24-2011, 08:33 PM Jule Caylor and the Noe family...I can only imagine the conversations they would have about Dottie and Wendy. And Jule could impress them with his salad skills. :lol:

Throw in Paul Pollis and Bob Bean and you have a new hit show for VH1.

:rofl:
MegtheEgg86 06-25-2011, 04:49 PM Andolina Gonzalez and Dan Tondevold.
John Fairbanks and Sheldon Weinberg.

:lol:
Walter Curley Green and Howard Drummond could have a Clark Howard like show.

I think Jim Burnside and Dennis Depue would be BFFs
TheCars1986 07-10-2011, 05:49 PM I think William Roll and those three Texas ranch hands that allegedly had a haunted house would make for a great paranormal "Perfect Strangers" like sitcom.
xxxxmattxxxx69 07-10-2011, 11:26 PM Bill Roberts(later found out to be Bill Blackwell) and Bill Henderson's killer who later turned out to be Lawrence Tutt. Both seemed stupid and killed the elderly.
John Addis and Reggie Depalma. Whatever they did they both looked good for their ages and they were respected positions in their communities who then turned criminal. I know Addis is dead and Depalma is now 65 and I don't know how he has aged behind bars
Steve W. 07-11-2011, 07:58 AM Jeremy Bright and Norman Ladner: just from how they were both described, it seems like they would have gotten along pretty well.
Hambone2421 07-11-2011, 10:44 AM Gus Hoffman and Tom Roche.
Mike Morris and Paul Pollis.
