America's Most Wanted premise
As the show has since its beginning, America's Most Wanted seeks to inform viewers about fugitives who are on the run from law enforcement. Using new technology and relying on a team of law enforcement experts to provide details on various cases, the show invites people to provide any information they may have that could help lead to the capture of these wanted criminals.
America's Most Wanted touts that it has assisted in the capture of more than 1,190 criminals through its coverage and tip lines. Speaking on the show's impact over the years, Walsh said in a statement, "I'm in constant awe over how instrumental our loyal viewers are in ensuring we get justice for victims and their loved ones, and today, they have entirely new tools at their disposal to help us fight back and quickly solve more crimes."
America's Most Wanted hosts
John Walsh, anti-crime activist, creator and original host of America's Most Wanted, is returning to the show with this new season. He is taking over for Elizabeth Vargas, who hosted the initial revival on Fox in 2021.
Walsh is not alone though, as he is joined by his son, Callahan Walsh, an advocate for the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.
"It's an incredible time for America's Most Wanted to return to Fox, especially in partnership with my son Callahan," John Walsh said in a statement.
Part of the inspiration for Walsh to create America's Most Wanted back in 1988 was the abduction of his own son Adam in 1981, whose remains were tragically found two weeks after the kidnapping. In addition to the show, Walsh and his family founded the Adam Walsh Child Resource Center, which eventually merged and became the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.
