Segments missing from Stack version, but remain on the Farina version

[Jon]

Like most people I choose the Stack version if I have a choice...But, I noticed today that the Mike Riemer segment is on season 6 episode 20 of Farina UM but is missing from Stack UM:

Season 6 Episode 20: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npO_...RnH-J&index=20

I am aware of the missing segment guide 'stickied' in this forum...I looked around online but couldn't find a running list of Farina segments which are now missing from the Stack episodes posted on YouTube & elsewhere.

Do we know of any others?

They have only the Dennis Farina version of the Bobbie Jo Oberholtzer and Annette Schnee case. I had searched for the Stack version recently.

They made 175 of the Farina hosted episodes. I count 173 on YouTube in their season playlists. There are 174 on Amazon, so they might be missing 1-2 episodes on each site. They might be blocked. It's possible they just don't have them all in the season playlists. I don't know if the episodes match what they originally aired.

Great info, TJ! Much appreciated!

The way they decide to upload and hold back segments with no rhyme or reason is baffling.

Indeed........I get that feelings on the part of family members & such could've changed between the time the Farina version aired and the time the Stack version came back, but if that + other legal possibilities came up, then why not remove them from both??

I don't even want to imagine how much the Farina version watered down that classic segment.

[schmave]

That version watered down everything!
It was a decent substitute when the original series wasn't available on YouTube, but the original is just so far ahead of the Farina years. That's nothing against Farina, but rather how the producers just repackaged and snazzed up the original series, often excluding dates from the segments as to attempt hiding how old they are and not even updating in many cases.
That said, thanks for this list! I haven't thought about some of those segments in years.

[TheCars1986]

The best thing about the Farina reboot, IMO, is that it gave us a glimpse into the segments that seemingly never saw the light of day (Tony Miller, Thomas Drake). It's odd that the reboot didn't include even rarer segments like Tod McAfee or even Bo Tanner.

Here's a "revised episode guide" I compiled some time ago of the 175 episodes of Unsolved Mysteries with Dennis Farina as they originally aired on TV as well as their FilmRise season and episode counterpart for anyone interested. Feel free to share it around if you know it might be of help to other UM fans.
