ID to Premiere New Season of ON THE CASE WITH PAULA ZAHN, 6/23

Investigation Discovery's signature newsmagazine, ON THE CASE WITH PAULA ZAHN, celebrates its centennial episode in its eighth season launching Sunday, June 23 at 10PM (E/P).

Hosted by Emmy Award-winning journalist Paula Zahn, each episode profiles fascinating and true investigations that weave together the emotional twists and turns of stories of perseverance, courage and justice. Zahn's journalistic expertise and articulate passion for the truth resonate in each episode, with in-depth interviews and reporting that go Beyond the Headlines in her resolute search to resolve mysteries from within our nation's justice system.

In the season premiere episode, "A Tangled Web," Zahn explores how a romantic Valentine's Day rendezvous ends in murder for doting husband, Richard Schoeck. The 100th episode of ON THE CASE will film in mid-July and air in August.

"In 2009, Paula trusted a fledgling network that was still finding its footprint with her vision for a series. Now, in nearly 85 million homes and a top 10 cable network for women with rising viewership, Investigation Discovery is honored to toast her with a new season reaching the milestone of 100 episodes," said Henry S. Schleiff, Group President of Investigation Discovery, Military Channel and Destination America. "ON THE CASE is a shining example of ID's core brand mission and we couldn't be more proud to have Paula as partner, whose loyalty is exceeded, if at all, only by her talent."

Having dominated ID's schedule at 10 PM on Sunday nights, On The Case With Paula Zahn has made six consecutive season-over-season gains for household rating, with each season beating its last.* Additionally, the series continues to shatter ratings on Investigation Discovery, with 11 premieres having achieved the coveted 1.0 or higher household rating benchmark in primetime.**
