some of the segment names for the UM episodes on Amazon Prime are pretty amusing. Some of the most amusing ones

1. Down on the Farm - Norman Ladner - never would have guessed this was the Ladner segment
2. Slain Swain - Harold and Thelma Swain - Whoever made that title must have been laughing their ass off while doing it, even though it is a segment about a murder!
3. Smitty- the Joe Smith episode
4. The War of the Depues -guessing it is a reference to The War of the Roses?
5. Thumbs - Shannon Mohr/Dave Davis - WTF!
5. Badlands - Jerry Strickland and Missy Munday -obvious reference to the film Badlands
6. Stalker Reward - don't know what this case is but LOL
7. Shopping Mall Pen Pall - Micki Jo West - how was the guy a pen pal?
8 Hairy Escape - again don't know what this segment is but LOL
9. The Man Who Knew Too Much - Stanley Gryziec- like how dramatic that sounds
10. Sean Don Con - Tracy Kirkpatrick - nice rhyme I guess
11. Pizza Man - swear this case gets updated about three times or something.
12. Kicked Out Killer - lol
13. Down and Out - Adam Hecht -clearly a reference to the movie Down and Out in Beverly Hills, guessing the title creator was a movie buff
14. Heck He's Gone - Because the victims's name was Heck. Just lol

Yeah, some of them are kind of clever and/or funny but I think it would just be easier for the viewers to navigate if they simply listed the names of the main subjects of certain segments (missing persons, unexplained death, murder, wanted, lost loves, etc.).

I'm usually about 50/50 when it comes to guessing those segments. I figured right away that 'Follow the shadow,' was Nyleen Marshall. But I couldn't guess what 'Down and out' was until I clicked on it....then I felt dumb for not figuring out it was Adam Hecht.

But those are clever names.

6. This is the case where they are looking for Alejandro Espinoza who helped police identify the Night Stalker, Richard Ramirez. He's the recipient of some reward money, but they never located him to give it to him.

7. I mean, "pen-pal" is a little bit of a stretch, but they are referring to the letters that were dropped in shopping malls identifying the killer that claimed to be from an accomplice but police believe were actually left by the perp himself.

8. Yeah, I'm not sure about this one.

Molestation isn't funny, but for some reason "molester cop" always stops me dead in my tracks. It's just so odd.

Season 4 awesome segment names include "Dungeons and Dragons" For Shane Stewart and Sally McNelly (I don't remember that game mentioned in that segment. That would have been a better name for Kurt McFall).

"Dial A for Abduction" for Angela Hammond

"Dances with Moomess" - no idea what this is lol

the Tara Breckenridge segment is called "Tara! Tara! Tara!"

too bad sometimes they give them awesome names like that, and other times they give them boring names like "Tommy and his Parents"
