The show has a dynamic between its co-hosts, with Madej acting as a skeptic against Bergara's theories and belief in ghosts. 2.3 Buzzfeed Unsolved - Sports ConspiraciesīuzzFeed Unsolved True Crime and Supernatural are currently co-hosted by Bergara and Madej, with Madej having taken over from original co-host of Bergara's, Brent Bennett, in late 2016 due to Bennett no longer having enough time to devote to the show's production.Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Supernatural skipped 2020 and has one less season than True Crime because production was unable to secure haunted locations to visit under quarantine. When the show concludes there will be 8 seasons of True Crime and 7 seasons of Supernatural. The pair announced that the final season of both shows will air in 2021, premiering on June 18, with a new True Crime episode and October 15 with a new Supernatural episode. However, the two are still employed at BuzzFeed as freelance producers, and continued BuzzFeed Unsolved with a 12th season in March 2020. In late 2019, Bergara and Madej started their own digital production company, Watcher Entertainment, with Worth It's Steven Lim. In 2019, the 10th season premiered in March and the 11th season premiered in September. Prior to the premiere of season 8, BuzzFeed renewed the show for a 9th season, which appeared in late 2018. The show is regularly one of BuzzFeed's most watched shows, which led the series to start streaming on Hulu and Amazon Prime in 2018.

Each episode is followed by a question and answer episode, entitled BuzzFeed Unsolved Postmortem, where Bergara and Madej answer questions sent in by viewers about the week's episode. The show is filmed primarily in the United States, with some episodes filmed in separate locations in the UK and Mexico. While the topics of discussion are often morbid, most episodes are presented in a comedic manner, cutting between Bergara's voiceover of the episode's topic and comedic discussion with Madej.


The show is split into two alternating themes, with each season seeing Bergara and co-host Shane Madej discussing either unsolved crimes in BuzzFeed Unsolved True Crime or investigating alleged haunted locations and demonic possessions in BuzzFeed Unsolved Supernatural. It was later given its own flagship channel BuzzFeed Unsolved Network. It first appeared on the YouTube channel BuzzFeed Blue on February 4, 2016, and has run for 6 seasons. BuzzFeed Unsolved (also known as simply Unsolved) is a documentary entertainment web series created and produced by Ryan Bergara for BuzzFeed.
