    GREAT(ly) Overlooked Show!

    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!

    Reality TV at its Best

    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.?

    I'm just hooked.

    While flipping through channels one day, I came across the previews for this show and decided to give it a shot. Turns out I ended up liking it even more as things progressed in the first episode with ample character development and a plot with many twists and turns that keeps you on the edge of your seat at a steady pace. The key aspect that clicked with me was the dynamics of this amateur group of detectives that have their reasons for joining in the fight for justice for those that have become "forgotten" by deadly circumstances beyond their control and with sheer determination and will, they become personally and emotionally involved in the case. With all the other crime shows out now, I would say that "The Forgotten" is nicely ranked up there with the likes of "CSI", Criminal Minds, and of course Cold Case. Lets hope ABC rests their laurels on this one. One of the best crime shows on the air.

    Bad call by ABC

    I LOVED this show & I'm sick that ABC canceled it before it even had a chance. It was a unique idea that had real merit because it brought to light a situation that really exists and gave much needed publicity to the network that helps solve the problem. I have actually looked into how close the nearest network was & whether I have any talents that would be useful to them. The show had also started some very interesting discussions with my 13 year old that we might not have had without the show! At that age is doesn't occur to them that someone could die unidentified & unclaimed. We have also discussed how driven a parent could be to find a missing child &th until there's proof, you can't stop looking. Boo hiss to ABC!

    Fascinating slant on crime solving

    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.
