Question about updates? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Ok, since there's no new eps of Unsolved mysteries.. If some new information or breaking news pops up on a case that's recent & say it happens now. We'll still get a new update somehow wouldn't we?

Good question....

i think most likely we would find out about it on the web or the newspaper

But not through Lifetime?

I don't think Lifetime has done a real update for at least four years. Of course I'm guessing

Randolph Dial was captured several months ago and the segment was never updated. I saw the episode in June and the end of the segment still claimed Dial and Bobbie Parker were missing. I don't know why Lifetime never bothered to update some of the segments.

I honestly think they don't update anything anymore there may have been a time where they tried, but alas no more.

PrettyinPink55 · 08-11-2005, 04:09 PM

That really sucks!

I mean, if they air Unsolved Mysteries, I think they should have to tell us about any possible updates!

Didn't someone (Sheilla Kimmel, Lisa Kimmel's mom, perhaps) ask Lifetime directly about updates and their response was that they didn't have a "legal" obligation to do it?

Well I know I've seen the Lil Miss episode without an update so it's true, Lifetime doesn't care!

I did see the LiL Miss episode about 4 or 5 (?) months ago and it did have an update.

The beauty of reruns (from the network's standpoint) is that they get the advertising dollars without doing any of the work. I'm surprised that Lifetime EVER bothered to update cases. However, I think it's pretty clear that nobody's manning the sails anymore. There did seem to be a response a while back when a bunch of posters email-bombed Lifetime with requests for old episodes. I wouldn't expect much more than that.
