America's Most Wanted

I am sorry to see John Walsh has been replaced as the host by Elizabeth Vargas. I am going to assume this was John Walsh's decision not to return. After watching this first episode where a low life purse snatcher is featured I also believe John Walsh did not want his name attached to this shallow attempt to solve petty local crimes and display this type of a petty crime as "America's Most Wanted?"

Next week maybe Elizabeth Vargas will provide a criminal who snatches a puppy out of the hands of a five (5) year old child and feature it as the number one criminal on the FBI's most wanted list.

The producers have had several years to prepare for this reboot and if this first weeks episode is representative of what we can expect going forward than the real criminals will remain on the run.

I just hope they never show a toddler throwing away their pacifier and accusing this poor child as a litterbug that must be stopped.

I give the series a dismal 4 out of 10 IMDB rating.

If you first told me that there would be an reboot of AMW, I would have said that it would not live up to the original and it would be terrible. But this new version of AMW proves all of that wrong. The reboot of AMW is not only more thrilling with better storytelling through recreations, but it has more involvement with viewers than ever, using new technology such as age progression technology and 3D avatars, it allows the viewers to really help bring the fugitives down. Not only is this one of the fresh and better new law enforcement shows, this is one that does not disappoint at all.

This was my favorite show as a child. I love that it's back. I'm looking forward to another episode.

Love Elisabeth Vargas. What a great show! The updates on the crimes reported are great, also the image of people would look like now is anazibg.

Show uses modern technology to create age progression images of perps. Carrying on a great legacy.
