I know! I wonder if this means that they'll start showing the episodes in order! You can never trust Lifetime, though. Just when you think they have an order going, they'll all of the sudden jump back to the 2001 segments. So, we'll see how long this lasts.

That son of Sam segment...

yikes! It's pretty obvious that David Berkowitz did not act alone in all of those killings. That means other killers have been living their normal lives ever since then without being punished. Kind of makes you sad AND angry at the same time.

And the Swain killings in that little church. I'm glad Lifetime is actually updating these old cases that have recently been solved. That was a scary case as well. But a huge question remains - If the killer wasn't planning on robbing Swain, what was the motive for killing him? Whatever the case, I'm glad he is locked up where he belongs.

While looking over the list of upcoming Unsolved Mysteries episodes on Lifetime's website, the only one with a description is one airing on April 15th at 1pm. The rest dont have any descriptions. This would lead me to believe that they are going to run through the whole month of April showing the older episodes. (Hopefully) I wish they would replay the Tara Calico case.

Did anyone else notice that the case of the man who stole one million dollars that aired today, was a repeat from one of the earlier Unsolved Mysteries specials? (Before the show started as a series)

I am just happy they showed Walter Green, an segment I've been waiting to see for 3 or 4 years.

to alert those who care about upcoming cases should Lifetime follow the chronological format - Tomorrow broadcasts should include

- The Murder of two priests in the desert (this one was aired last month as well - Authorities suspected that the murderers were targeting a select group of priests)

- The case of a family's run of luck after finding a rock with peculiar engravings on it in the woods.

- Kurt Sova.

Later.

The day Lifetime goes in order is the day Hell freezes over...

They've started over before and have always within a couple of weeks been to 1992 or 1993 episodes.

Not sure what today's about... I missed the opening. 1st story is a husband whose wife was missing, they suspect he brutually murdered her(Nebraska).

The 1:00 p.m. episode today (4/6) was from the mid-nineties. Who knows what's going on.

Some kid intern or uncaring employee grabbed the old tapes and threw them in random order. They might have a batch of "before 1996" and "1996 and later" or something like that, and just consider every tape in each batch the same as another, no need to sensibly sequence.

Does Lifetime really keep the episodes of Unsolved Mysteries in this loose an order? You would think they would have a better system of managing all these episodes than what it appears. We know they can do better, because look at what they have done with the other series they show.

They will play the entire run of The Golden Girls in complete chronological order from beginning to end. So I know they could do this for Unsolved Mysteries if they really tried hard enough.

What's funny is that they actually used to play the episodes in mostly chronological order back in the mid-nineties. I know because I used to tape it a lot back then, and upon looking at my old tapes, the episodes more or less follow the order in TJ's guide. So yes, it sucks because they did have the tapes in original broadcast order at some point in time.

I guess we should be happy they are at least playing the old episodes, and not the new crap. And hey, at least it seems they took our advice.
