Hopefully they will have a capture counter and/or reflect and count direct captures. Right now the website is a much-scaled back version of what amw.com was at cnn.com/thehunt I hope they add links to past episodes. Right now they probably don't have enough fugitives to do what amw.com did full-scale.

So we know Christopher Ponce will be on The Hunt on August 3rd. Everyone please tell your friends so we can get justice for William Angel's dad who is now a member of our forum!
What I find weird is The Hunt seems to be going to order on the CNN.COM/TheHunt site from top to bottom and Burgert is above Ponce. I assume this means Burgert may on that episode as well. Usually they have a theme but these are two completely different types of fugitives. Should be interesting to see how they make a connection.
Also this is what it looks like if they continue going this is what the other episodes may and I stress MAY look like for the latter episodes:
July 27th- Episode 3- Brad Bishop
August 3rd- Episode 4- David Burgert/Christopher Ponce
August 10th- Episode 5 Guillermo Madrigal Balesteros (he was said to be the 17th in an article I posted earlier but based on site order he would be the 10th)
August 17th- Episode 6- Rick McLean/Thayne Smika
August 24th- Episode 7- Victor Barnard/Jacob Wetterling
August 31st- John & Julianne Dimitrion/Scott & Genevive Kelly

If I were a betting man, I'd guess either Ballesteros or Smika for the remaining one case show besides Bishop. My guess is Ballesteros since his case even has a documentary about it but it can be either one of them and Smika makes sense as well given his cold case/Robert Redford connection.

Unfortunately I can't find any official video from CNN for episode 2. When I search for the episode "The Enemy Next Door" all I can find are "other" sites where you have no idea if you're actually downloading a virus or the show. Disappointed if only the debut episode was available through official CNN.

Awwwww, thats really upsetting for me. Unfortunately, on Sundays I tend to have a packed schedule a lot of the time so I really hope that there will be a an online source to watch the show! I missed last weeks episode but I saw the first. Luckily I'll be able to see the one this weekend, but NOT the next weekend :/. Oh well, at least i get to see it most of the time, but yeah, I hope an online source is added over time.

Yeah it sucks. If anyone wants to search online it's up to them but you'd need to make sure it's not a virus site and that you're not violating copyright laws by downloading the show. I hope after season 1 they put The Hunt on Netflix at least. They can put a disclaimer on the bottom for any episode where the suspect or suspects are captured.

I fear now CNN's way of covering a breaking news coverage case may cause The Hunt's reruns, a key to capturing these guys and girls, to be severely cut back this summer. Let's face it they spent three months straight on a plane that simply disappeared. Now they have a plane shot down along with the Gaza conflict. I hate to sound selfish but these breaking news stories couldn't have come at a worse possible time for The Hunt. Last week Shane Miller's rerun wasn't played on the East Coast (I believe it was on the west, but what if it turned out someone East went to Mexico or whatever and knew his whereabouts?). Looking at all the hot tips coming in on Stoeser and the fact that even though we haven't heard anything officially on tips about Charles Mozdir he really doesn't seem too hard to spot imo and they may be more closer to catching him then we think, I feel like if the reruns are played this weekend, Mozdir and Stoeser have a great chance of getting captured as a result. But because of the breaking news on CNN, reruns, supposed to be a key factor of The Hunt this summer, may be severely cut back even into August.
Although if we want to compare to AMW, as frustrating as it is we haven't caught Shane Miller and completed John Walsh's trifecta of first-airing success (I'm not sure we can even count the Lifetime season since Margaret Smith was technically aired on Fox before), perhaps there will be a symmetry to the old show. David James Roberts was on the FBI's top 10 list. Now Bishop is too. I know how difficult this appears to be on the surface, but Bishop would be Roberts and John List all rolled into one. Perhaps I think too magically, but sometimes I feel like an AMW or hopefully The Hunt capture is fate and something that was bound to happen. Perhaps it will be Bishop and not Miller for the "holy crap!" first capture. Some weird part of me, as controversial as this opinion may sound, thinks that there is more evidence Bishop is still alive than Shane Miller despite Bishop being much older in age. Miller disappeared into the woods and there doesn't appear to have been any credible tips since. Bishop has had numerous credible sightings in the decades since he's disappeared. I'm not predicting Bishop will get captured. I know it won't be easy even if he's out there. But I am really hoping he does. Because that would an INCREDIBLE direct capture #1. But if it turns out to be Stoeser or Mozdir, I won't complain either. One is a convicted sex offender, and the other an alleged child molester. They might not have the publicity the capture of Bishop or Miller would have, but any day you get someone potentially harmful to underage children off the streets it's a good day. My question is if CNN will repeat their cases on Sunday to allow that to more likely happen.

Tonight's supposed lineup:
7 PM ET- Shane Miller repeat 8 PM ET- Kevin Stoeser/Charles Mozdir repeat 9 PM ET- Brad Bishop new episode
No Shane Miller repeat again. I'm NOT saying the breaking news coverage isn't important. I don't like to talk about myself personally too much, but I do have personal reasons to be interested in the breaking news events taking place. But why can't they play the frigging repeats on HLN at least if they're going to do this? A lot of people might blame The Hunt's 1-2 fugitive format for there being no captures yet. But even I who complained about capture probability might blame CNN at this point. I will be ESPECIALLY pissed if they don't replay the Stoeser/Mozdir repeat since as bad as Miller is, I think the odds of capturing Stoeser or Mozdir off a repeat tonight are actually pretty good in comparison.
The Hunt was SUPPOSED to be similar to AMW's last year on Lifetime with mini-repeat marathons before the new show and I was looking forward to that. Thanks CNN for decreasing the odds of a capture for coverage that although is important, likely isn't adding anything that we didn't already know tonight.

I think you missed the entire post. We don't know if they'll actually show the repeat at 8 tonight because of their news coverage. I hope they do for your sake.

They're re-playing the Stoeser/Mozdir repeat after all! Yes! I would not be shocked at all if The Hunt's direct capture #1 was as a result of a repeat and one of these two guys gets caught at the end. (Although I'm hoping we get Brad Bishop too )
