Investigation Discovery also abbreviated as ID is a television network primarily owned by Discovery Communications which also owns Discovery. The programming, for the most part, consists of documentaries that deal with true crime of a violent nature like kidnappings, domestic violence, homicides, disappearances, etc. The network also sources and airs so-called re-titled off-network shows including ABC’s 20/20, NBC’s Dateline, and CBS’ 48 Hours amongst others. Investigation Discovery currently reaches 73.9% of American households with a television.
