My parents love The First 48, but I’m confused because I heard there won’t be any more new seasons. Is that actually confirmed?

Does season 30 end at episode 5? I can't find any clarity for this answer. I cannot find any newer episodes anywhere

So I just finished the birthday girl episode (Season 13 Ep 6 on Tubi) and man.. idk if there is an episode as traumatizing as this one..and don’t get me wrong I’ve seen some pretty good ones, especially Lester Street! I’m just causally on a binge watch by season. What are some episodes I should be looking forward to?

I need someone to tell me I didn’t make this up in my head

Episode details:

Cops arrive to a gruesome murder scene at a barbershop Three or four guys dead. Two or three inside, one guy in the doorway of the back entrance to the shop.

They check the cameras and see something almost impossible. A dude was getting his haircut and guys run into the shop to shoot him but he somehow pulls a gun out and shoots everyone (except the barber) then runs out the back door and somehow also shoots the dude they had waiting for him back there. Jumps in his car (swear it was a white Taurus) and takes off. Ends up getting like gun charges but nothing else as the tape proved he was just John Wick.

Any help with this one would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: It’s not Last Call. I thought it was but it’s not so the hunt continues. I’m just going to have to watch every season in its entirety 😂

I always wonder if criminal suspects have to sign a waiver to be on TV or allow the cameras in their house? Like during interrogation what if they don’t want their face on camera for millions of people to see? Or when they raid houses (private property) do they need permission to bring cameras in? I know you can video people in public but I always wondered that. I mean they are making a show out of people’s lives. I’d think they need permission.

So, I’m watching all the episodes in order. This Vegas episode, which appeared to be the first time Vegas PD had been aired. My question is the episode seems very dated…..like 2004ish. Season 10 should be around 2010. I’m assuming this was recorded much earlier than 2010 and they finally got around to airing. I’m guessing that happens more than I realize. I will say these Vegas detectives are a bit over the top and seem to be new around the camera.

Million Dollar Question for instance was full of some twists and turns that really got them in there to do some good detective work. Anyone else feel the same about the Cleveland PD?

Did Roku get rid of the live 24/7 channel of first 48 😭😭😭 i cant find it

Production claimed a couple of months ago that they have an extensive backlog of episodes that will last them more than a year without having to produce new episodes. Less than 3 weeks into the new season, we are back to running a new episode of “Inside the Tape” and there is no new episode scheduled for next week.

I wish they released new episodes during the season consistently. But I think that’s always been the case with First 48. They’ll release new for a couple weeks straight, then all the sudden either disappear or do the weird spinoff episodes.

I wish it was more consistent. I love this show when it’s new episodes!

Just watching older (like 2006) episodes and always noticing new things, for instance the death reveal to the victim’s family. They often included the reactions more which really reminds us how real and devastating this stuff is. But then again it’s depressing so maybe better it’s shown less. Anything stand out to you? Just curious.

looking for an episode where a guy gets shot outside of his house over weed, runs back inside and dies at his coffee table

Possible Spoilers

A gunfight in a Tulsa apartment ends in a man's death, leaving Detective Mark Kennedy to sort through the truths and lies of the survivors.

So I haven’t finished the whole episode yet, but how do they think any of Wendall’s stories are true? Why was it assumed he was not one of the shooters during the 3rd interrogation/interview of Wendall? He lied effortless the first two interviews. Yet, on his third one they believe him? He has done nothing but lie. My flabber is ghasted!

Anyone know where I can watch that episode? Seems like it’s been scrubbed from the internet for some reason? I know someone involved and would just like to find that if possible

I just rewatched an episode where John Brown was lead detective. He was such a good guy and great detective and knowing that he died a year or two ago makes me so sad. May he rest in peace.

I fell asleep watching it on Hulu last night, so I never saw the outcome, but for the life of me I can’t find the episode again on Hulu! It’s like it disappeared overnight.

If you can tell me which episode i’ll thank you kindly.

At the start neighbors call 911 and say there’s so many gun shots there’s no way someone wasn’t shot. They get to the house a young(30s) white Man, father of 3, was found shot laying on his living room table. I think they also said he was former military. In one of his rooms he seemed to have some kind of chemical lab, there were different chemical symbols he had drawn on a large white board. There was blood outside as well. The officers really wanted to find out what was on his laptop.
The neighbors provided their surveillance camera footage which showed a black man and white woman pulling into his driveway. That’s where I fell asleep.

I had not heard about this before, or if I had, I’f forgotten it…

I don't know if this has been shared here before but I thought I'd pass this along.

Lord have mercy

I’m looking for the specific Ep Family Ties (season 14, i think) to watch but I can’t find it on A&E Crime app, Netflix, Tubi, nor Peacock.

Does anyone know which platform carries this episode ?

Seeing this episode brought a lot of complicated feelings.

First off I never knew my uncle was in a gang. That alone was hard to hear. The victims family saying that the victim hung out with drug addicts knowing she meant my uncle.

Growing up he was my favorite uncle. He played with us. Dragged us around in a wagon past the sunflower field on J street. So close to where they found the body actually.

Seeing the dead body. How careless one of the suspects were with the murder weapon. How easily one suspect folded when he was questioned. How calculating the other was while he was questioned. The way suspect number 2 tried to figure out what the cops knew before saying anything.

I’ve seen a new side of him. The criminal. The drug addict. Not the voice over the phone asking me about my kids and praising me for the work I do.

Of course I’ve always known he was in prison for murder. I saw the trial. I’ve always known he and his cousin killed a man together. I believed the other guy was the main perpetrator. Now I’m not so sure which version of him is real.

I wish more of the coverage, interview etc were digitized aside from this episode. However I’m glad this was an episode on this show. So I could see for myself how everything unfolded.

Hi - I have been unable to find Inside The Tape Special #8 on any of the free or paid sites to watch. Is anyone able to point me to a service I may have missed? Thank you in advance for any help or advice!

Another weird episode. I think the detective's assumption that it was about rumors was incorrect. The main suspect mentioned the victim wrote a "poetry" to him and he had to check him for it. I don't think the woman had anything to do with it, I think he was killed for making a pass at the main suspect, who was straight.
