Synopsis

Wanted was a short-lived half-hour CBS crime documentary television series hosted by Walter McGraw, which aired in the 1955-1956 season at 10:30 EST on Thursdays following the original version of The Johnny Carson Show. This Wanted had a format similar to the subsequent Unsolved Mysteries on NBC, hosted by Robert Stack and Fox Channel's America's Most Wanted, with John Walsh. Like the two later series, Wanted features re-enactments of actual crimes and profiles fugitives from justice. Viewers were urged to telephone information that they may have about each case presented on the series. Declared a "flop" by Billboard magazine, Wanted aired only from October 20, 1955, to January 12, 1956. ABC aired no program at the time Wanted was on the schedule. The series ran opposite the last half-hour of NBC's long-running Lux Video Theatre.
