Nothing else to say on the profiles except I agree with your summary 100%. I understand that the majority of fugitive murder suspects aren't mild-mannered nerdy types, but they do exist and it shouldn't be surprising enough to specifically state that. I understand what they're getting at when they're trying to tell the stories of Peter Chadwick and Lamont Stephenson, and to mention their character traits, but I feel they can be doing this in a less stereotypical type of way.

Still no Hunt preview for Macedo up. Technically, they have until tomorrow, but part of me wonders if they found a way to expand Moradian's profile to a full hour since Macedo is now captured. I guess we'll find out lol.

Also (sorry on a roll today I guess), but they're replaying the Shane Miller episode on HLN today. I get that it's historical in that it was The Hunt's first episode but Shane Miller is dead. I'm glad the show's now on a channel that will show 'Hunt' reruns as CNN is now political talk 24-7 pretty much, but I wish they would focus on fugitives still at large. Maria Cabrera or Dino Curcio I can understand since they're newer episodes and still good to brag, but I see that Shane Miller episode replayed a lot and I don't get constantly playing repeats of episodes where all cases were resolved in previous seasons rather than someone the viewing public could still help catch.

Tonight in my opinion was the best two-fugitive Hunt episode of the season. (Dino Curcio and Pablo Mata both very good 1-fugitive only episodes). (I hate saying "enjoy" an episode about such terrible cases but well done)

Both cases were very emotional, and although all the episodes make me sad or outraged in a sense, I'd say for some reason both cases (despite Macedo being captured) hit me more than usual tonight. In Macedo's case, basically just how senseless it was that Alex's life was wasted for no reason, and in the Moradian case, how sad it was that Officer Russo did so much for his country and others just to get killed by an irresponsible drunk driver.

John Walsh seemed more involved in both cases, fighting back tears when it came to Officer Russo's death (the part about Jason Russo's mother having to explain to her daughter what happened is what made Walsh nearly broke down as it reminded him of breaking the news to his wife about Adam). This isn't a criticism, but I noticed some cases this season have more interview heavy with John Walsh not commenting as much as he had in past seasons. Both cases tonight, he was very opinionated, involved, and quite emotional.

Thankfully Macedo was captured. Hopefully Moradian didn't flee the country and can still be caught. (or fled to somewhere where he can be extradited if he did leave the U.S.)

I've seen Walsh still get emotional the past few years in interviews and on The Hunt as well (he got pretty worked up during the Shane Miller episode and the Thayne Smika segment in season 1).

Just this year he seemed to be laying back a bit more and not commenting as much on some of the episodes. In fairness, some of the cases did speak for themselves.

I agree this was a really well put together episode. Both segments did what they had to so tell two very tragic and senseless cases without getting off track. It was also good they were able to explain some of Chicago's gang issues without going into a political discussion about it.
