Lifetime picks up 'America's Most Wanted'
by Lynette Rice

Lifetime will put John Walsh back to work: The network announced today that it has picked up America’s Most Wanted.

The show that began its run on the Fox owned and operated stations and then moved to the network will return for its 25th season later this year on Lifetime. (In May, Fox canceled the show as a weekly Saturday series because the show was no longer profitable but it will still air quarterly specials — the first of which will bow in October.)

“I’ve always believed there was something very special about America’s Most Wanted and that there should be a home for it on television, and I couldn’t be happier to now be able bring it back on Lifetime,” said Walsh in a statement. “We’ve often been called the court of last resort…now we are back in the game and ready to saddle up for another season to get justice for victims and put dangerous criminals behind bars.”
Hosted and executive produced by Walsh, America’s Most Wanted has helped to capture more than 1,100 fugitives in the U.S. and 30 countries, including 17 on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted List. Last season, the show averaged 5 million viewers on Fox and a 1.7 rating in the adult demo.

This is a good day.

Criminals are crapping in their pants while in hiding upon hearing this news.

The rest of the hype is so afraid of Walsh's imminent return that they've fled from the board.

I was actually surprised Fox cancelled it. I didn't think of Walsh moving networks to continue the show. Not a bad thing although I doubt it'll get the same coverage as he did on Fox.

Lifetime is one of those channels that caters to women and has a reputation for airing the battered abused female movies where the woman ultimately prevails after getting back at the evil woman-haters out there.

Good. John Walsh and this show actually helps victims of crimes unlike that cackling witch on CNN.

Hey if it gets the job done, I'm all for it being around on one network or another. Kind of reminds me of back in the days when Lifetime picked up Unsolved MYsteries.

And he doesn't even have to use a weapon or anything.

I find it interesting that it's on Lifetime, the same network that showed Unsolved Mysteries and both shows did a lot of the same crimes, just different takes on those crimes.

I'll try to watch this online.

Hey, I've got issues with Anderson Cooper too, but let's not resort to name-calling here.

Nancy Grace? I can't stand that woman either. I see her on the channel or in the news feeds on their website and I move onto something else. That woman is a parasite.

One glance from John Walsh, and criminals crap in their pants. No other person on TV can do that. That's all it takes.

In fact, Cops need to use Walsh in interrogating criminals, as they would probably crack easily.

It's not the eyes that do it, it's the eyeBROWS. They should just show photos of those bushy things to every Al Qaeda suspect in the world, and they'll sing like canaries.
