‘America’s Most Wanted’ Likely Ending A Quarter-Century Run

Lifetime isn’t picking the show up after this season.

But the network says it’s developing a pilot for a new project with John Walsh, who created “America’s Most Wanted” in 1988.

Hosted by Walsh, the series was a fixture on the Fox network until its abrupt cancellation in June 2011. During that run, the show helped bring almost 1,200 fugitives to justice…

Walsh originally launched his crime-busting crusade in 1981, in the aftermath of the abduction and murder of his 6-year-old son, Adam.
