One of the finest television movies

This fall will mark 20 years since the first airing of 'Adam'. While John Walsh now hosts 'America's Most Wanted' as well as his own talk show, in my opinion, he has become 'America's Most Admired'. I will take a show like 'AMW' over any reality show airing today. I believe that society can become more educated from this show than from a show depicting marrying a total stranger of eating raw flora on some deserted island.

Huzzah for 'Adam', John Walsh, and 'America's Most Wanted'.
