Can we digitally resurrect Robert Stack? Please?
You may have noticed that more people on the internet are talking about “Unsolved Mysteries” than ever before, and that’s because a deal with FilmRise has resulted in the creepy series being put up for streaming (free for Prime members!) on Amazon. Three seasons of the original series can be streamed right now, as well as eight seasons of the Dennis Farina-hosted revival.
More episodes are coming soon. But what about BRAND NEW episodes?!
The final episode of Spike TV’s iteration of “Unsolved Mysteries” aired back in 2010, and the series hasn’t been seen or heard from since. But during an Ask-Me-Anything session over on Reddit today, creators Terry Dunn Meurer and John Cosgrove expressed a desire to bring “Unsolved Mysteries” back with new episodes. Furthermore, they’re pitching to networks!
Said the duo:
We too would very much like to see new Unsolved Mysteries shows on the air. We are in the process of reaching out to networks to see if there is interest in ordering new shows. Let’s keep our fingers crossed! We are always trying to find a network, channel, or streaming service that would like to show new episodes.
They also noted that the fourth season of the original Robert Stack-hosted episodes should be hitting Amazon in 2-3 weeks. So be sure to keep your eyes peeled over there!
The series used re-enactments and interviews to retell the circumstances of, well, mysteries that are unsolved. Covering crimes, tales of lost love, unexplained history and paranormal events.
