There were some really good segments on tonight. The one about Tim Good, the dairy farmer that was found dead in his basement, always creeps me out, glad to see that Dave Freeman was caught. The one about Joe Cole is so sad. I wonder what's on tomorrow night? I checked lifetime's website but there was no description.

I can't find the episode on the guide, but it was from the 2 seasons with the purple writing intro. It had the story of some healer named Pio(last name). Also, 2 more stories, one where a guy kidnapped his own sister-in-law.

Padre Pio. That segment was on tonight's episode shown here in Canada! It even had an update at the end (first time I ever seen an update about such a case) about how Pio was made a saint in 2002.

It didn't have an update on the Lifetime version. :mad: I hate LIFETIME!

Last night(Wednesday Night)'s episode:

March 24, 1995
Reports include a self-proclaimed "spirit channeler" in Sao Paulo, Brazil, who spreads the message of life-after-death in his paintings; the 1994 apprehension of a fugitive in Cobb County, Ga.; a boy's experiences during World War II; the 1992 disappearance of a waitress.

Tonight's episode isn't a good one, this is the best(at first look) description I can find right now:

May 5, 1995
An examination of healing and the mind; and an update on a brother and sister's search for their four other siblings. Also, reports on a missing 5-year-old boy; computer technology that enhances video images.

Only thing is in the preview there were 2 miracle stories, the missing boy one wasn't. There was also a prison escape where a guy wanted for drug trafficking walked out of prison dressed as his sister.

I'm curious, in those last two episodes, what was the font used for names and titles of people interviewed in segments? I can't remember if the italic font debuted in the 94-95 season or the 95-96 one (I'm thinking the latter), replacing the classic sans serif one.

The white normal writing that was used in the early episodes. Not the Italic, it debuted in 95-96 when the intro "This Program Is About..." was dropped.

I can't find the exact episode in the guide yet(I think Lifetime mixes segments and doesn't show them the way NBC did):

May 12, 1995
A psychic mystery involving a St. Louis woman's experience with a Ouija board, through which the works of a 17th-century writer were channeled. Also: a family's search for a Houston couple who rescued them from a car accident in 1983; the manhunt for a Delaware woman's killer.

The first story is the only one listed that was in the preview.

The other stories were the disappearance of a Soldier, and a man who picked up a hitchhiker who subsquently stabbed and killed his elderly mother, and another story.

Last night's episode was from 1996:

It contained the Tommy Ziegler final appeal from 1975 where he was convicted and sentenced to death for killing 4 people including his wife and in-laws at a furniture store. There was also the story of could dogs find medical problems, another story about a man who murdered his ex-wife's attorney after he lost custody of his children and the murder of a 19-year-old Teenager just days before Christmas, by gang members.

Tonight's episode is from the 1995-1997 era with the green writing, stories include:

The disappearance of two occupants of a car involved in a drunk driving accident, the two occupants are found dead three months later floating in a ditch 75 feet from the accident, authorities suspect foul play; A mysterious loud noise heard by people, could it be a radio used by the Navy to communicate with Submarines; the arson investigation into a house fire in Dallas that killed 5 children(story aired as an intermixed old segment on Lifetime back in December); and there was another story, I'll get more details later.
