I can't say I ever heard of him commenting much on the individual cases. Perhaps a former production member reads this and could chime in.

I am hoping some one sees it and does chime in

Robert Stack did a Reddit AMA many years ago and he said his two favorite cases were the Magic Rock and the fertility statues. He said, "Other shows like America's Most Wanted get to find criminals and missing people, too, but only I get to do the supernatural."

I've read that he was a friend of Micky Thompson and that his (and his wife's) murders really saddened him.

If I had to guess, I'd say the Elliot Ness segment might be his favorite for sentimental reasons. He even has a slight smile on his face when he mentioned his days of portraying Elliot Ness, himself.

But after narrating more than 1,000 segments and countless updates, they probably all ran together in one big blur in his head. If he were alive today, it would probably be hard for him to make a favorites list.

Not really that it was his favorite case, but it seemed like he genuinely cared about Jenny Pratt’s case

He did not like supernatural segments. This was on the commentary track on the DVD set they put out years ago.

I could tell that Robert didn't like the Mann family haunted house story, which resulted in one of the funniest segments ever done on the show.

Everything Robert said just felt like it was drenched in sarcasm.

The bit where the ghost "possessed" the young wife and had her attack her husband was hilarious. Robert said something to the effect of "The Manns knew they had a ghost. What they didn't know was that she had an ambush planned!". It was hysterical!

Didn’t he use to say the directors, etc. Aw Come on. When he didn’t like the stories. That would have been hilarious to see that. I wonder what he thought of Rainboy? Maybe he would start swearing like he did in Airplane.

I read on a blog that he was very close to the Hecht family and Adam's case was a personal recommendation for the show.
