There's a TV show down here in New Zealand called Sensing Murder which is very popular, the show centers around unsolved murder cases and bringing in psychics in the hope that they'll provide new leads for investigators. I enjoy the show quite a bit myself, but I do get frustrated with the lack of follow-ups, though I guess if a case were solved with their help it would be all over the news.
Another little gripe I have with the show is that they do investigate a lot of missing persons cases, they wouldn't need to go through proper lawful channels to find a body, though on every show they can find where the person was last seen or the believed spot where they passed on.
So where does the psychic challenge fit in all this, well a fella named Stuart Landsborough has challenged the Sensing Murder crew $100,000 if they can pass his tests. The main reason for posting this, well I had no idea a challenge like this existed down here in my part of the world.
These shows always thrive on the unsolved mysteries. Like you said, if it was solved, then everyone would stop watching. Thanks for posting.
