America's 60 Greatest Unsolved Mysteries and Crimes

This compelling documentary series presents a countdown of America's 60 most notorious unsolved mysteries and crimes. Tags: Storyline: Somebody ranked the 60 greatest American mysteries. What the priorities were for the rankings is not explained. I saw the first episode, and around five mysteries are discussed. It is really lame. Just a couple of snippets of information, and a couple of guys saying something to the effect that it is a big mystery. What is the point? I thought that these mysteries were going to discuss new discoveries, new investigations, new clues, new ideas, but no. Just nothing. A rehash of material that any American has seen for many years, without any new perspective. Really boring stuff. I was not expecting much, but I got even less. No effort was made to shine a new light on anything. It is just cut-and-paste from historical clips and photos, with a couple of unknown experts giving a rehash of that old news.
