Sin identificar

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 am stating my opinion as to wondering why they took the forgotten off the air. I am beyond angry for doing such a stupid move! I want them to bring back the forgotten with the same actors and actresses. This is one of the best shows that I've watched since Jaws. So now my question is, "When are they going to bring back the forgotten?" Christian Slater is one of my favorite actors and I would love to meet him in person so that I could let him know personally. The other characters in the forgotten was also amazing people as they are a team. You do not want to break up a team! Just please, who ever decided to take this show off the air made the biggest mistake ever! Bring back this show and bring back the team! By Diana LaCroix in Omaha, Nebraska

Alex Donovan (Christian Slater) suffered a personal loss. He decided to start a group of like-minded civilian volunteers to identify John/Jane Does for the police. Everybody bring their own special skills to the team.

Of the three recent Christian Slater led TV efforts, I liked this one the most. Along with Christian, this star Michelle Borth, Anthony Carrigan, Bob Stephenson, and Rochelle Aytes. Heather Stephens was let go midway thru the season which lasted 17 episodes. As a procedural, it has just enough originality to be slightly different. The team has good chemistry especially from Michelle Borth. I guess that this just wasn't flashy enough.

I love this show, the problem is that this show is competing with the Good Wife for viewers. I think that it gives a different angle to a crime shows. LE doesn't always have the time to investigate unidentified dead cases. I also enjoyed "Without a Trace". I am so sick and tired of reality shows. I want something that is going to at least make me think. My family also enjoyed Sleeper Cell, but it was way to realistic. If only the public knew how realistic it is. Maybe the government made them shut that show down. So if you like to solve mysteries and like to problem solve, then this would be a show for you. I didn't know about it because it was always playing when the Good Wife was on, but one day there was a re-run, so we flipped the channel. We would TIVO them so we didn't miss an episode.

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.
