Now that we are all unabashed true-crime ghouls and internet sleuths, it makes sense to bring Unsolved Mysteries back.
Some of this season’s mysteries: Rey Rivera’s body smashed through a roof of a conference room at Baltimore’s Belvedere Hotel-murder or suicide? Why did a handful of people experience lost time in the Berkshires, Massachusetts in 1969-was it a UFO experience? Black Kansan Alonzo Brooks’ body was found in the woods weeks after he attended an all-white house party in 2004 in which racial epithets were thrown around-what happened? A little bit gritty, somewhat arty, and fairly carceral, the Netflix reboot of Unsolved Mysteries removes the original’s hammy atmospherics and the spooky-ooky interlocutor Robert Stack but keeps the light appeals to police-procedural worship and vigilantism-because you out there might be able to help solve a mystery after all.
