New Unsolved Mysteries

[MysterySolver]

There has been some buzz around the Cosgrove-Meurer office that Unsolved Mysteries might come back to TV with new episodes in the future! They are currently looking for new stories, so if you or anyone you know has stories they would like to submit, please do one of the following:

Great News! Thanks for the update MysterySolver!! Maybe NBC will bring back the show in primetime. I wonder who the new host will be if they return to new episodes? This is the best news I've heard all day!!!

It's "the best news" only if it's true. MysterySolver said there has been "some buzz" about it. So it's too early to know whether this will eventually come into fruition.

Besides, I imagine the studio would want to get a written agreement from a network before they could even consider putting the show back in production. However, the idea of UM returning to NBC is probably wishful thinking; the peacock network's recent financial woes (which has caused them to cut down on scripted shows) might make it a moot point. So Lifetime is probably the best bet.

That would be cool if a NEW Unsloved Mysteries was made, but I'm still curious of to where MysterySolver heard this news, and who would host the NEW UM? Plus we need a show like UM to help people with their Lost Loves,Frauds,Murders, ect. Also I hope Lifetime puts UM back on soon.

Chances are, they wouldn't decide on a host until it is certain that an UM revival will materialize. But even if it's true, it might be a considerable amount of time before it happens. So one shouldn't expect an UM revival within several months.

Considering how essential Robert Stack was to the show, he's a tough act to follow. So finding a successor wouldn't be easy. Besides, it would also be a question of whether the audiences would accept someone else as the host of UM. They obviously didn't accept Virginia Madsen (the co-host); otherwise she wouldn't have been excluded from the show when it resumed production in 2001.

I work for Cosgrove-Meurer productions, so that is where I have heard the information. Since the company is still in negotiations with the network who is looking to do a new season of Unsolved Mysteries, I cannot give details with any certainty. The gist of it is that it is most likely a pilot will be done, so the company is looking for new stories to possibly feature in the pilot.

It would be great to see Unsolved Mysteries come back with new and old episodes.

MysterySolver,
There has been a string of college age men who go missing or end up dead along (or in) the Mississippi river in Wisconsin and Minnesota. The police are calling them accidental drownings due to intoxication and binge drinking, but many locals fear that there's a serial killer on the loose, including victims' families. These are very sad cases, all of these boys dying or disappearing under eerily similar circumstances. I personally believe that, whether the deaths are purely alcohol-related or not, there are VERY STRANGE similarities between the cases. The media heat has died down a bit on these cases over the past year, but I really think it's worth looking into. See the links below:

2002. So the show has been out of production for four years now.

Oh MY GOSH!!! How great would it be if UM could come back!!! It wouldn't be the nearly the same without Robert Stack, mind you, but I'm sure he would still want it to continue even after his passing.
