wkozak221 I agree with the other reviewers of this series. It was very well done. It seems the better written series do not last that long. Just like 'PROBE' this series disappeared in a flash. It was nice to see David Soul in something else other than 'Starsjy and Hutch'. One episode I remember, I think it was the pilot, the crime scene was handled very differently. In this episode the team walked on a raised platform and wore zip up suits and booties. I think if the network got behind this series we might be discussing this series and not 'CSI'. I thought the characters were done very well. The cast was not that large. It helped to follow the plot lines much easier.

scrapbuddy2-1 My husband and I still remember watching every one of the few episodes this series had which were very cerebral but fascinating. Years later we have still to find one that is as focused as this. CSI has a lot of the forensics (which is much more advanced these days) Criminal minds has a lot of the victimology they used, but I never understood why this didn't take off. Guess TV series had to wait for people's fascination with technology to spark the craze.I would like to see this show again, maybe will come to Amazon Prime someday, I think it will look like the original Star Trek does now-- very limited in up to date usage of computers, labs, the use of the internet and ability to track things on a more national level with national databases

KSchmo7177 This television series of eight episodes was so far ahead of its time I am not surprised that it did not last more than a few episodes. I do not feel that it was the inspiration for the Crime Scene Investigation shows. I feel that the new series Criminal Minds might have been a clone - right down to the team plane. The one similarity to Crime Scene Investigation is the lab connection. Criminal Minds doesn't appear to show a lot of lab time. Unsub was a very dark show but excellent television. I got to watch old old taped copies and wish the series would come out on disk. David Soul had visibly matured from his Starsky & Hutch persona and was very believable as head of a country wide forensic team. Many parts of the show were much more realistic than Crime Scene Investigation (no blonde women with flowing locks gathering evidence at the scene of a crime) these people went in with booties and head coverings. Their cases were also much more grisly than the Crime Scene Investigation shows...comparable with Criminal Minds...not quite up to Bones. It was also made at a time when most television shows were still more eye candy than realism. David Soul showed his chops as an actor in this series.

myogenic This was one of my favorite TV series of the past 20 years. It was, perhaps unfortunately, too dark and too realistic for its time and did not run sufficiently long to gain a dedicated following. Some of the scenes showing crime victims were disturbing for that day, although they pale in comparison to what is shown on current crime dramas. The cast was great, Walsh and Soul were perfectly cast for their parts. Kent McKord and Richard Kind were also in the cast. Great music by Mike Post and definite Stephen Cannell-style directing touches. Excellent subplots and good character development. As I recall, most of the episodes dealt with serial killers and one of the best was a 2-part episode involving a clergyman. UNSUB certainly prepared the way for series such as CSI and Criminal Minds. There was nothing like it until CSI came out in its first incarnation (Las Vegas) in 2000.
