Load of rubbish!!

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

I "stumbled upon" 1-800-Missing totally by accident while looking for something worthwhile to watch since summer brings a lot of not worth my eyesight drivel. It was refreshing, had all the right ingredients to keep me clicking on episodes as fast as they would load. I know how "old" the show is but, it was great. The cast needs to know what a fantastic job they did. I loved it! Truly an enjoyable watch.The casts acting skills were equal to today's skills. They showed emotion when a sad situation occurred, there were in house relationships but, the actors did not allow these to interfere with their work ethic. Just good acting with great writers & a good plot.

I just finished reading through some of the user comments and I was kind of shocked. I barely caught the show when it was "1-800-Missing" (even though I *love* shows like this) because I couldn't stand how it all played out. I don't know if it was Gloria Reuben, or how she interacted with everyone else, but it was unbearable.This is not to say that Reuben is bad at what she does. Although I can't think of anything off the top of my head, I know I have seen her in one or two other things and enjoyed it. But in this show - no.When I heard about the changes, I thought I would give it another shot - and I was HOOKED. I love Vivica, I love her interactions with Caterina and Mark. I was so happy to see Mark back in action (I used to watch him on All My Children) and I was just thrilled with the whole package. The only time I missed a show is if I made an error setting the VCR or if I was traveling.I just finished watching the 2nd season finale and I'm busting at the seams because I can't believe I have to wait for a whole new season.I can't understand why anyone thought differently.Just my 2 cents worth.

I really enjoyed both this series and Wild Card when they debuted last year.Both series were completely revamped for their second seasons. While I don't feel Wild Card has suffered that much for the changes, I am very disappointed in what they've done to Missing, aka 1-800-Missing (poor show, it didn't even get to keep its title).For some reason, probably just chemistry, the teaming of Caterina Scorsone and Gloria Reuben worked better than does Scorsone and Viveca Fox. The idea this year, apparently, was to make the series more intense, with Scorsone's character becoming FBI. Gone are her family and all the things that gave this series a lighter touch. Also, the visions seem less integral to the story lines. I think my biggest gripe is the theme song is gone. I just loved the old one "This dream is real...take a look around..." It had a more lyrical quality - but then, so did the show.

I watched every episode the first season and enjoyed the mentoring of Jess by Brooke. Gloria Reuben brought maturity and nuance to her character. Unfortunately, this season is almost unbearable to watch with the absolutely horrible acting by Vivica Fox. Her character is simply not believable as a senior FBI agent (at least not in the way she "acts" it). The secondary storyline of Fox's character with the hunky Mark Consuelos is also a bit contrived. Thank God for the over the top abrasiveness of their new supervisor (played to perfection by Justin Louis). The new supporting cast overall is good, but is not an improvement over the first season's. I'm giving it a couple more episodes before I give up on it.
