Sin identificar

I have been watching this show on DVR and it is actually a very good show. My wife told me that it was not doing very well in the ratings game so I figured I would do what I can to let it be known that there are people who love this show and would be sad to see it go. In every episode, they start with a body or, in some cases, body parts. Throughout the show you get a little more information until, at the end, they show you exactly what happened. I like it better than CSI, Bones, or any of the other similar shows. Perhaps that is the problem; the forgotten has been preceded by so many similar shows that people are tired of the same old same old. But give this show a try.

This show was not your usual "CSI" type of production. I was impressed by the cast's way of depicting very different people from various walks of life who wanted to volunteer their personal time to identify someone who died "nameless". It was a terrific concept and I am sure it has inspired any number of people to pursue involvement in this worthy cause. So why did ABC nix the show?? I felt let down and disappointed that the show was discontinued. There are so many "dumb" reality shows on TV right now. Why isn't a show like this one valued when it is based on real and very sad circumstances that can turn out in a positive way for families who have missing children etc.?

Yet again another program, that I like, deleted without much of a chance given to gain an audience. Big surprise. Why don't we just put on massive amounts of "reality?" and other totally useless garbage shows, instead of nurturing the kind of "acting" series that might make us think once in awhile. Oh, I forgot, that's what they're trying to do now. My mistake. So many decently written and acted series have fallen by the wayside in the past years, to be replaced by these other mindless exploitation shows. It's really a shame. I guess as long as there are people wanting to see these other types, good shows like "the forgotten","Jericho", etc., don't stand a chance. Thank goodness for rentals, I guess.

REALLY good show! Even overlooked it myself at first. Wanted to see it when it first came out, but it was on opposite one of my faves. Now, I usually watch this. If I can't catch it, I make SURE to dvr it!!!! All of the stories and actors are great in it! I have always been a fan of Christian Slater, and the other actor are up to his caliber. Elisha Cuthbert is a new and welcome addition! The story lines are very different from all the other detective shows. Instead of focusing on the criminal, this show focuses on the victim. It's all about identifying the "John Does" and "Jane Does" of this country. It focuses on putting some closure for some families out there. How many families a year have loved ones missing out there, when there are plenty of "Does" in our morgues and cemeteries? A much welcome and fresh new take on the "detective" genre. To the network,PLEASE keep it on the air!

I loved this show. It was original, well acted and brought to light victims we don't think of..Jane/John Does. Unsolved cases where the loved ones never have a chance to find out what has happened because there usually isn't enough time/money for the police force to follow up on finding the identities of these unclaimed bodies. It was at times dark, at times very funny, but always interesting and I just can't understand why it was canceled. I have always loved Christian Slater, he was one of the reasons I tuned in to the first episode and got totally hooked. Add Jerry Bruckheimer to the mix (CSI) and I knew it had to be good. For those that like CSI, NCIS, it's cancellation was a big mistake and a loss. Shame on the network for not realizing this was a gem of a show. If they have any smarts, they will reconsider and bring it back as a mid-season replacement.
