Premise: Criminals get publicity they don't want in this long-running series, which has been responsible for more than 1000 captures and has become an anchor of Fox's Saturday-night lineup. It features re-creations of crimes and interviews with law-enforcement personnel, and there's a number for viewers to call with leads. Host John Walsh got involved in fighting crime after his 6-year-old son, Adam, was murdered in 1981.
