Disappeared

This was a good show. There was a time when I binged crime shows, and Disappeared was one of the first that I binged the hell out of because I found them interesting yet sad.

The show is about investigating people and families who disappeared. Some were found 47'd, others were found having a new life and others well have not been found.

The whole quality of the show was awesome and engaging. You felt for the families and victims. Thoughout you get to make guesses of what may have happened and sometimes I was right.

Also, sad that a good, informative show that may help families had to come to an end while shows like the Bachelor remain on the television.

Last Words: Interesting and a sad show at the same time.

For years now on "ID" Discovery channel this series called "Disappeared" has aired and I just recently watched some episodes while channel surfing, yet it's right for my taste because I love mystery and crime shows especially those that involve real life cases as I was always an "Unsolved Mysteries" addict. And you all know when you see news footage or the paper headlines it's panic and dread and doom for everyone when someone goes missing or they are abducted and the pain and drama sorrow for the families involved are tough to describe as they search for answers. Many of these cases are tough to solve as they have no witnesses and often the motive is robbery, sex, rape or even human trafficking. The series acts out each case recreating the story plus it shows actual news footage about each case and interviews law enforcement officials and family members of the missing. This program is a tough watch yet it's a program of hope that ask and searches for answers of those missing and it tries to find answers and closure of these hard to crack cold cases.

I can't believe that there is just one other review for this terrific show. And it's an unfairly negative one at that. A champagne glass?

This show profiles true life cases of people who have disappeared without a trace. Through interviews with family members and reenactments , we learn of the events that lead up to the person's disappearance. I have watched every episode of the show's 6 seasons and almost always, I am completely absorbed.

A person disappearing without a trace is disturbing and one can only imagine what the family members are going through as they search for answers. I have been so taken with some of these cases that years later I will think about someone I saw on an episode and do a search to see if there is any updated news on the case.

I'm not sure if this show has ever been responsible for someone being found as Unsolved Mysteries used to claim back in its day, however, it certainly doesn't hurt to have another forum to get the word out to help find these missing people.

I'm happy to learn that a 7th season is being produced due to viewer demand. Smart move by Investigation Discovery as it has been , in my opinion, their most important and highest quality show.

Disappeared is one of, if not THE, best true crime shows out there. Too many people go missing leaving little to no trace behind them. It's hard to not leave a trace of yourself in our world today with the amount of technology we are exposed to and use on a daily basis. Dead or alive, the remains of these individuals are somewhere.

The heartbreak the families suffer from their loss is unthinkable. When someone passes, it's heartbreaking but you know what happened or how they passed and their remains are with you. All the questions and the not knowing must be torturous for those who never receive those answers.

There's no excuse to ever see this show canceled considering the number of people who go missing today. Every case is deserving of coverage and recognition. This show is a public service for the people left behind and should be offered to everyone. If it was your loved one, you'd want this coverage. NEVER CANCEL THIS SHOW!

Being a big fan of Investigation Discovery, I thought I would tune into this show along with my usual other viewings of the programs on this network. This show is probably the best on ID and should be much more popular than it is! The cases are truly haunting because we know that these are the real stories of real people and what makes it very personal is seeing their friends and family tell their own stories in their own words on the show.

This show has a little bit of everything: people that were found dead but nobody knows what happened to them, those that are still missing seemingly without a trace, and those who were found alive and got a happy ending. Some cases have their obvious suspects (without enough proof to prosecute them most of the time) while others are true mysteries. Each story is so different from the other but all are equally captivating.

The show does a great job at attempting to present all the known facts in the most unbiased manner possible while looking at all the different perspectives offered by law enforcement, the friends and families, etc. Some cases I've been so drawn into that I periodically look online for updates and while I don't really know if the show has solved any cases, I definitely think that it is a powerful tool to bring the reality of disappearances and kidnappings to your average viewer.

I look forward to watching the rest of the new season!
