Before my eyes were even functioning I checked out the new U.com! I'm really pleased the way they have set every thing out and how cases have been updated.
Its like a total revamp =) What a transformation!

Hopefully with this work maybe there could be a possibility of some new episodes been made. Its a step forward in the right direction.

What do you guys think?

This pretty much confirms what I've been saying for awhile. If they ever wanted to get back into production, they'd be better off selling the franchise to a major network and keep CM as a consultant to the show.

What really doesn't make sense is how guild restrictions don't allow it to be shown on the forbidden site. I wonder what is stopping CM from making their own VOD's and uploading them to the site? All they would have to do is convert the segments into a flash style format.

Overall it's not bad. The archives are done very well and I can tell a lot of work was put into it. Even the synopsis for each case is fairly long and detailed, which is nice. I'm really curious as to how the user submitted cases feature works. One case is already up Lacey Gaines. Definitely going to have to visit the site daily now.

Impressive re-boot of the website. There has been a lot of work done. Lots of updates on old cases, too. I just saw the Dana Robertson/Mike Reimer case and according to the new website, a skull identified as belonging to Mike Reimer was found only a year ago.

It appears hours could be spent on the new site, going through updates on the old cases I remember being aired during the show's original run.

Working for me now, but it's very slow. But I do like the new concept of viral videos being uploaded to help seek justice.

Spark Of Spirit · 07-18-2014, 01:39 PM

It finally works for me, too.

If they're creating a store, I really hope they're considering a soundtrack. I guarantee they would sell out on that really fast.

karenjanee · 07-18-2014, 07:41 PM

pretty cool... I like the current cases.

Guardian · 07-18-2014, 08:15 PM

I'm digging the new site. While maybe not what we all would hope for (the series coming back) it is a step in the right direction. I like that they have new mysteries on there.

That's what it was all about. Mysteries put into main stream media so cases could get solved. That's why UM needs to be back on. This site will hopefully help with that.

Shows have come back from far less, (Firefly anyone?). They had Browncoats, I say UM fans should call ourselves The Trench-coats. Yeah, yeah I know Columbine and all. But I'm taking Trench-coats back from them. Trench-coats unite! Who's with me?:-) Trench-coats unite!

QuenSolen · 07-19-2014, 12:32 AM

Everything is A-ok on the website now.

Guardian · 07-19-2014, 01:17 AM

So... No trench-coats? Dang.

sffan · 07-19-2014, 01:23 AM

Anyone see the "my mysteries" section of the site? The first mystery is of a young women's murder narorrated by her aunt. It may not be a completely new show but it's a start, and hopefully these new mysteries will create a larger fan base for a new UM program.

Also who is paying for this website revamp? They are also spending a lot of time on social media, there is a market for unsolved and hopefully this will grow in the future.
