80s TV Shows: Unraveling Uncertainty

Unsolved Mysteries1987 - It's still going!
Click image to watch a 1987 promoAlthough it's hopped around from network to network and had gaps in production, for the majority of the last quarter century, Unsolved Mysteries has transmitted goosebumps over TV airwaves as it re-enacts real life mysteries---including unsolved crimes, missing persons, conspiracy theories, and unexplained paranormal-like phenomena. Mwahahah!

Quote:"Whenever possible, the actual family members and police officials have participated in recreating the events. What you are about to see is not a news broadcast."

Trivia:The concept of the show is based on a series of three specials run on NBC in 1986.  The success of these specials, which focused only on missing persons, led to an expanded focus and the creation of Unsolved Mysteries as we know it today.  Does anyone remember the name of those three 1986 specials?
