America's Most Wanted is a long-running TV show produced by Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation and run on the American FOX channel that profiles fugitives wanted for violent crimes.

The show often also profiles those currently on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list (see FBI ten most wanted fugitives).

The host of the show, John Walsh, started it partly due to the murder of his five-year old son, Adam Walsh.

The show expanded it focus to also cover criminals in the War on Terrorism when, on October 12, 2001 an episode aired featuring 22 most wanted terrorists. The show was put together due to a request by US President George W. Bush who prestened the same list of terrorists to the nation two days earlier.
