Buzzfeed unsolved extended universe: C.C. Tinsley is fresh from faking his own death and hot on the heels of Ricky Goldsworth and his heinous organization.
i hate it
Must be
why is no one talking about Shane's apartment's elevator
I can too, it's fairly common in apartment complexes to be honest.
@Soh Rijin that happened to me when I went to visit my friend. I was waiting for the elevator and when it opened there was a couple going at it and we kind of awkwardly made eye contact before the guy pressed the elevator door closed. I took the stairs up instead 😅😅
@@minmochimoch omg i feel bad that u were the one who had to adjust for them lololol xD
Shut up bro, i was giving her the business
Apartments are just like that sometines

Alex Ramirez more proof that Shane is a demon
Idk if it’s because this is about Hollywood but Ryan’s voice over was way more dramatic than usual
I think Ricky goldsworth was taking over the whole episode
That's Hollywood baby
he kinda sounds like a chad
He's imitating a Film Noir narrator
He should put on that persona more often!
Being shot in the back with his arms raised, could just mean that he was holding his hands up because he saw someone with a gun and was told to turn around by his killer...then shot
Polite Teardrop wtf are you talking about
@@ibuprofriends yeah I don't get what Trump has to do with this at all....
@Polite Teardrop what does trump have to do with this. I mean I don’t like the guy but
"meaning they shot him while they were hugging him"
*Cut to Ryan and Shane awkwardly trying to hug*
ah, good quality content.
That's what I was thinking!
“..shot him while embracing him-“
*immediately gets up to hug*
ryan’s voice was particularly vicious in this video i’m concerned
in the q&a he said he said he was trying to sound like rod serling

@@galaxyspice5805 thanks! XD
jess brimage Yes. Yes he did
If Ryan has kids he’s gonna bring them on the show like
“Ready to solve some mysteries buddy?”
“Yeah!”
“Wanna announce what we’re looking at?”
“Today we’re looking at the stolen Mona Lisa”
“Good job”
I can imagine this and this is so cuteee
Shane: doesn’t have kids. Brings his cat.
“Can you make a snarky remark for me?”
“Meow” “That’s my boy”
@@jynxedjellyfish I would watch this
bring your kids to work day
Omg. This is just too cute.
13:37 Cool little piece of knowledge. $5,000 USD in 1921 translates to $72,602.79 as of Sept. 2020. Also remember Ryan says checks, not check meaning more than one was written so Sands stole at least 72K+
@Pranit CHHABRA It's a simple google search
update: this amount is now up to $84,033.52 in 2023.
I'd kill a man if he stole that much money from me
"C.C. Tinsley, here! What's your name, sir?"
"Ricky Goldsworth! What's it to ya?"
Shane is forever Tinsley in my mind and now Ryan is Ricky Goldsworth.
Marissa S this looks like a case for *C.C. Tinsley*
Tinsley? What episode was that
Sounds like a case for C.C. Tinsley. ;)
@@misaeldoesanimation4408 The Sodder children

Ryan’s alter ego: Ricky Goldsworth.
He was so in character

Shit was too funny
Hola Isw
He’s very in character cause Ricky Goldworth is a demon my dude
The eyewitness who saw the burglar-looking man told media she thought it could have been a woman dressed as a man (hence why they looked like they were dressed up). Actress Margaret Gibson confessed to the murder on her deathbed.
Why did she do ir
@@shayuh1244 during that same time, there was a trial going on accusing actor and director Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle of raping and murdering an actress. During that trial, a lot of hollywood stars' private lives came to light, so it is suspected that she murdered Taylor because of blackmail.
A.N. Van Maastricht do you know why? Why wasn’t she in the video?
@@natalyaporter5730 I don't know why she wasn't covered in the video, I mean I found all this on wikipedia, the article on the murder linked directly to the page of Gibson.... but she most likely did it because of blackmail (she either felt he was a threat or perhaps he was part of a certain incident or other that people could use against her)
@@anemonenova8694 Probably this information came out after this video
Mabel and Taylor sound like a gay best friend dynamic. Mabel yelling him that she’s going out to dinner with another guy doesn’t seem like the kinda thing you’d tell a lover
That makes sense actually
Idk sounds like she was trying to make him jealous after being given the cold shoulder.
It absolutely DOES sound like the kinda thing you’d tell a lover (in anger, I mean) especially at that time
Both theories make sense, tbh.
I took the 'Hindu prince' line as a joke between the two, to be honest. Maybe bc I doubt she actually had dinner with a Hindu prince? It just sounds outrageous, like something you'd say jokingly. I could see her making that crazy claim to cover maybe meeting up with another woman? Crazier things have happened.
_asdfghjkl_- "it was a wild scene"
wHO WROTE THIS WHO WROTE THIS WHO WROTE THIS
_asdfghjkl_ he keyboard smashed 😂
they sounded it out😂😂😂
i like how that doesn't even sound like what sound he made the guy who does those screens must have just been like **runs finger across keyboard** **asdfghjkl** *alrighty that looks good*
Shane should always speak like that! 😳😂
lmmaoo
I feel like there should be a little poll at the end of each unsolved video for us to vote on who we think was the suspect
GREAT IDEA!!!
OMG YES PLEASE
YES. That would be damn good!
That's SUCH a good idea
Samantha S. Yaaaaaasw
With this being one of the reasons Mabel Normand fell from grace and died at a young age from drugs, Mary Miles Minter having her career ruined because of this scandal, and Roscoe Arbuckle having his life ruined (and filmography nearly entirely destroyed because studios burned his films) after being falsely charged in someone’s death… social media cancelling has NOTHING on 1920’s moral panic
I'm rewatching this and I feel like the bullet being from the back with his arms up is more likely to be a "freeze, put your hands up, turn around, etc." kind of situation rather than a hug. Especially if there was an exit wound
''she doesnt get a good look" goes on to describe him in great detail lmaooo
meaning she didn't see his face
Describing half of the men in Hollywood
Well its easy to see a beard or no beard
Its common, eye witness just believe what they didn't see, just mind games, overthinking adds up, no fault of the witness.
Yes bc getting a good look at someone’s face and describing what they’re wearing are in no way mutually exclusive.
*finds pink night gown*
Detective: ....i think it belongs to a woman.
maybe he was really a crossdresser O.O
I can't stop laughing😂😂 your profile picture and name fit this comment so perfect😂😂😂😂😂😂
oh yeah 😂 lmao
😂😂😂😂
Agent Beyoncé ay. You don't know what Taylor had been wearing to bed
nobody:
Mary: (ominously) "if I can't have you, no one can"
also Mary: "lmao oops my finger slipped sorry for the bullet babe"
Charlotte Shelby??? JEALOUS that her daughter getting taken by an older man??? as a mother shouldn’t she be actually concerned or worried that her 19 year old daughter is spending time with a 50 something man instead of getting jealous? yikes
Idk, this was the 20s, I don't think they were that woke back then
things were different and relationships like that were (unfortunately) still common
@@KirbyCom , they were not. If anything, anyone else would have been ecstatic that their daughter was involved with an established, successful older man before she got to be an old maid.
Let’s hope that Taylor was really gay and he was actually acting like a surrogate father to Mary and there was no weird sex stuff but Shelby was jealous that he was replacing her as a parent
@@KirbyCom so moral was found in 2010s huh
is it just me or is ryan’s unsolved voice extra spooky today
Colleen C. No its extra nasal sounding! He sounds horrible!
Colleen C. I think he's trying too hard in this one on purpose and I get it, but it's not for me
It's kinda pretentious
Colleen C. It sounds like he's forcing the wheeze too.
I think Ryan is sick
Ok we need a Ricky Goldsworth/C.C Tinsley Crossover
What if CC Tinsley did have a run in with Ricky... And that's why he went missing.
it wasn't cc who went missing.....I thought so to but it was another unnamed guy lol @@Zorayah
@@razkable I think you're right, I remember Shane making a joke about 'help has arrived, wait send help' in the same voice so both private investigators merged into one entity for me.
YES!
Sounds like a case for C.C Tinsley
The man who said goodbye to Taylor must have been involved as she said that he was the one who closed the door. It occurred to me... who closes the door of someone else’s house when they leave? Surely Taylor would have done so if we were still alive
I find it weird that it says Taylor only acted in one film. He actually acted in 27, so ya might wanna check your sources Ryan. Love the series, but still. All the facts matter, even if they're not relative to the case
Yeah, I have occasionally seen inconsistencies so while I love the series, I don't take it as stringent fact when I can help it, just more of an appetiser to make me more aware of peculiar cases or the confusing nature of our world? 🤔
@@leedent7260 tbf if they covered EVERYTHING, the video would be an hour long. I agree that sometimes they miss important info, but I feel like the generally give a good sense of each case
@@antilikka yeah, true and it is all entertaining anyway and I see these as edutainment so to speak, but not outright documentaries?

Shaniacs Unite!
The man Faith saw was smart (if he’s the killer), he probably noticed her but knew to keep collected and pretend to say goodbye in the regular fashion, as if he’s showing her there’s nothing to be worried about, just a friend visiting.
Keller)
Lol aka "keeping it cool"
there were rumors of him being a homosexual and a man leaves his apartment in all black? trying not to be seen? maybe a male lover?
The looking back as if to say goodbye could also double as part of this facade, but also him saying goodbye once and for all to the man he had just murdered, kinda like Shane’s “That’s a wrap” thing.
Margaret Gibson was the killer. She confessed after seeing it on TV many years later and said “I thought people forgot about that.”
The neighbour Faith later said that the killer looked a bit cartoonish as if it was a woman in men’s clothing. Margaret confessed to dressing up in men’s clothing and shooting Taylor because he had incriminating information which could be used against her. This was at a time when scandals were coming out about people in Hollywood and involved in film making.
Going back to the homosexuality theory-
Is it possible that the man was a pissed off lover? Maybe a lover mad about Taylor’s abandoned family, or jealous over Mabel or Mary?
My exact thoughts.
The "(phone drops)" part of the transcription made me snort-laugh.
The reading of Mary's love letter was legitimately the funniest thing I've ever heard
Out of everything, ‘blessed baby’ scares me the most.
Evie Laurent reminds me of Bhad Bhabie and that’s among the last people on earth I want to think about
I mean, we call our lovers "babe" and "baby" and blessed I guess means that he sees her as perfect, like a goddess.
But blessed baby together reminds me too much of the infant Jesus. Not a cute pet name at all.
Evie Laurent that's just a pet name
Evie Laurent More than Mary impersonating her dead cousin? 😓
Maybe it's a kink thing...
Ryans voice seems to be too creepy in this episode.
9:11 "she does not get a good look"
proceeds to describe his whole face
Well if you look at a silhouette of a man and if he doesn't have a beard you can notice it.
how does ryan’s girlfriend take him seriously, he probably dirty talks in the same voice
OHHH NOOOO HAHAHAHAA😂😂😂😂
it's ricky
Silence Harmony harmony no😂
jayla HELP EUBSJDJS
jayla IM LAUGHIG AUSBSB
omg he abandoned a family - what if his son/ or one of the abandoned family members killed him???
Kathy P he had a daughter but I reckon his ex wife hired someone. She had to get a divorce by the state because nobody could find him, he'd just up and left. The pawn ticket with the stolen items on it said something like 'selling the assets', sounds like something that would happen during a divorce to me
kezlou87 supposedly he left them when he joined the military and when he started doing movies they saw him on the silver screen and contacted him through the studio to which he made a trip out to meet his daughter and make her his legal heir
J Wat he started in Hollywood the year after his wife divorced him, so god knows. I reckon it was his wife, or given that it was the 20s a relative of hers who thought he'd dishonoured her in some way
Love your picture 😘❤️
If you bothered researching that much, why not keep reading find out he had a daughter, and not a son, and that she was made his legal heir? Also, they lived out east, did they not? You'd have to prove they were in California at the time? DERP.
6:13 *hears the word homosexual*
My gayness: You called?
non existent I swear he was killed by a guy he had over
Cringe.
“Silky garment that resembled a nightgown” ok it’s either a nightgown or not XD
It's not a nightgown, but it resembled one XD
I think they were trying to find a euphemism for "lingerie", ended up just being weird lol, especially since they didn't bother with a euphemism the next time it was mentioned
Shane's really elaborate and totally necessary elevator sex story
lol I really loved that part
Taylor Anderson if you’re going to try and troll, at least copy it correctly...
Still sounds weird when Ryan says February.
slimkt Exactlyyy
FEBS!
I thought he did better this time! But hey we all have certain words we just say differently than most!
LOL
Feh bee airy
Despite the mother having the most motive, I just don't think she's the killer. There's just too much that doesn't make sense. 1. The fact that a man was seen (possibly acting suspicious) but nobody saw a woman 2. what the studio execs chose to take and not take. The stuff they took/didnt take doesnt make a whole lot of sense if the mom was the killer.
I honestly think the idea that Taylor was gay makes the most sense. The execs would have taken anything that alluded to a man being there, and placed the nightgown to insinuate a woman was there. Somebody could have been sent to kill him, or just decided they had had enough. This would also explain why Sands was being so coy and mocking (though i dont think hes the killer). I think the killer is someone not even listed here
I'm inclined to agree. It's certainly possible that the reason the letters were never released were because he could have potentially written confidential details about his sexuality to her, which would explain why she was also so adamant about them not being a couple and people getting the "wrong idea". I'm almost positive that nightgown was planted, especially because that quote about the nightgown "probably belonging to a woman" seems off, considering that would typically be the obvious conclusion, and was probably to divert attention from his sexuality. Also, the fact that he abandoned a family fits REALLY well here. It would make sense that a gay man wouldn't want to be married to a woman. Overall, there are a lot of patterns that certainly suggest this.
Ryan has a soft, yet really raspy voice and It just adds that much more tension to whatever he's saying and I'm so here for it (he's really going all out with the eeriness in this one and I'm loving it haha)
Imagine if this whole time, Shane was a demon and Ryan was a serial killer.
Wouldn't that be a plot twist.
ShadowMoon Niko itd be the next Supernatural.like honestly i think it'd be just as big. X'D
I need a book written with this plot
ShadowMoon Niko na shane would be a maniac
@@ryannjones5926 a maniac demon?
Gee Wae Oml never thought about that
Ryan pronounces “February” like 5 different ways in this ep alone lmao
I DID NOT like how quickly the shadow man turned his neck at 11:42
You know these unsolved episodes just makes me wanna avoid saying the word kill, I often threaten people with death jokingly and now I'm just scared I'm gonna be convicted of murder.

Good gods, I looked it up, and apparently that 78$ he had in his wallet would have been equivalent to over a thousand dollars today. No wonder they ruled out robbery as a motive!
22:20 My teacher marking my tests
have you guys heard about the death of actress Thelma Todd? she was found dead in her car in her garage. it was ruled suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning. however she had a broken nose, cracked ribs and bruising all over her neck. just thought that would be another old Hollywood case that would make a great true crime episode.
John Eggers I want to see them investigate the "suicide" of Dorothy Kilgallen.
Tim Evans what
they just did this one!
hey hey hey
I feel they should make a separate channel for unsolved !! anyone agree?
Yes!
Yes. Then I can subscribe to it and get notifications on time. I don't subscribe to buzzfeed because for every unsolved video they have 10 idiotic stuff like 'people get their colon cleaned by professionals'.
Kimberly Thornton that would mean less attention since they would start all back from 0
Subhajit Deysarkar I feel the exact same way
Kimberly that would be the paid subscription solution.
Mabel: we were _not_ in love.
*insert heart locket with her face in it*
Mabel: th-that means nothing!
*insert letters with **_pet names_** included*
Mabel: I-
*insert other evidence of their affection for each other*
Mabel: .....
Everyone: that's what I thought.
I’m surprised you guys didn’t mention that the mysterious man had to ask for direction to Taylor’s house. That leads me to believe that he didn’t know Taylor personally and was perhaps hired by Shelby or the director of Paramount to kill him.
Why do I feel like there's a "february" in every episode
it is pronounced feb-you-ary, isn't it? have I been doing it wrong my whole life?
At least he says it correctly now
Its feb you ary
Paloma Burnham 😂my bad
Why do i feel like i see your fucking profile picture in every comment section lol
A silent film star who was *VERY VOCAL*
Oxymoron much?!?
Technically it would be a paradox, but I thought about the same thing :P
@Zea Alanis Well Irony could also work in this situation, as irony is when something happens that is the opposite of what was expected. A paradox is a sentence that seemingly contradicts itself or that seems unlikely, but when looked into, is true. An oxymoron is basically the same as a paradox, except the words are right next to each other, like 'bittersweet' or 'deafening silence'. Irony is more of an action or something that takes place, which could also be applied to this situation as well. Whether it is a paradox or an example of irony is up for debate. I'm not completely sure :P
why is it so funny how he said “Taylor was a Homosexual” 😭😭 i mean, same 🙃
My immediate thought was his mistress's husband or boyfriend found out about their affair and then DEAD which explains the gown but the other theories make sense
Calling your significant other “baby: “ fine
Calling your significant other “blessed baby:” weird
#logic
#IJustFoundOutWordsHaveMeaning
I even find it weird to call a significant other "baby".
it is weird man
blessed baby? what r u, a priest lmao
easy way to hide a fling in code...
I love how they just start talking and all of a sudden they “role play” as Ricky goldsworth and the mayor 😂
I think Charlotte Shelby hiring a hitman to do the deed makes sense. Because only a hitman would need to ask where Taylor lived. The others knew him and knew where he lived.
Why wouldn’t she knew where he lived?
Someone pointed out Taylor's son. What if his son showed up and pretended to forgive and embrace his father, and then shot him? The man asking about him in the store could have been his estranged son wanting to make sure he had the right place.
Being estranged is a pretty solid motivation, and few people knew about his son so he wouldn't even be on the police's radar.
Taylor had a daughter named Ethel and she would’ve been like 10 when he died.
Is it bad that I can’t stop laughing at the lead detectives quoted statement “it appeared to be a night gown...it appears to belong to a women”
This day and age you never know! Some dudes like to throw on a pink nightie and a thong! More power to em ;) You go sista.
Dayrbenzie lol my brother wears a night gown
Bella Rayne yeah. Today it may not be so weird, but this is the 1920s. Things were different back then.
Legit like...
Bella Rayne k but this was almost 100 years ago not this day and age lmao
Luxurious pink night gown
Detective: "I think this belongs to a woman."
ImQuizzz you never know
Ok so my theory: Mary went to his apartment in her pink nightgown to seduce Taylor. The mom catches wind. The mom sends the DA to take care of it. Mary comes in, drops the nightgown, throws herself at Taylor. Taylor struggles to keep Mary at arms length as she's throwing herself at him (thus explaining the raised arms). The DA comes in, sees this happening, misinterprets the scene as Taylor ravaging Mary, shoots Taylor, and smuggles Mary out of the apartment.
huh that's pretty plausible
He died being harrased :( this is sad
Kinda sounds like a scene in a unrealistic movie, where stuff happens to the convenience of the story, Don't think it was this
Ohh that's a interesting theory
@@bigmax5780 harrassed by a girl wile hes gay on top of that. like in 1 of the the authority aus where the authority went too far
Dramatic Fashion: *Throws the door open* "Oh, my dearest! What have they done to you?!" *throws herself over the corpse*
He thinks it belongs to a woman.......No, of course not, it was Charlie Chaplain's famous Silk pink nightgown lol.
why not? judgmental much?
69th Like woot woot
i think it’s meant to mena like ‘he was not a cross dresser’ kinda thing
@@moduspwnenz most likely due to gender stereotypes at that time
Lanwarder oh yh he took it on that boat with him 😂
(Jk)
i LOVED ryan's extra theatrical voice
i also love ricky goldsworth. would love to see him showcased more often
Ryan’s voice in this episode is delectable
I really love that they started visualizing the murder with actors and props and stuff,makes the video a hundred times more interesting then it already is
the black and white scenes are cool af and fit perfectly with the crime and scene and the eyes of that actress in the scene being the only thing with color looks really good
Francesca Di Dio This is so well done. The best reenactments.
I'm sorry but I can't take Ryan seriously when he tries to say "February"
Julie Nguyen Febyeeary 😂😂😂
It sounds normal to me, honestly. I've been listening out for the word February more, though. XD
Haha finally someone who noticed that. I've been thinking that since the beginning of the series 😂😂😂
Jürgen Weber lmao no.

MMM? Sounds familiar.... OH! *microwave noises*
I watch these at 2 AM in the dark after watching something way more freaky, to make myself less scared when I go to bed.
when do we get the netflix show about Ricky Goldsworth
After he kills shane and moves out of the state
i've never heard someone say asgdjkl in real life. I've always wondered what it sounds like and now i know. thank you shane.
Anna 😂😂😂
“Taylor rumored to be homosexual”...”Taylor received strange package...” 😏
haha so funny dude you’re fucking hilarious
LMFAOOOOOOOO
9:11 Faith saw a man leaving Taylor's apartment. What if that man was from the studio? If the studio had gone in and planted items and/or removed items, then maybe that man was making sure all that work was done for the studio?
BuzzFeed Unsolved is the only highlight of my fridays
Zico Tops for me it’s Saturday
8-BitAnimator it's saturday at my place too
Buzzfeed Unsolved and Dead Meat is highlight of my Fridays
Deadmeat and Buzzfeed Unsolved are the highlights of my fridays
Sunday in my place
I like how Ryan was forced to say February so many times in this case
Ryan’s manner of speech and accent in this episode is almost weird enough to make me cringe, but it is just awesome.😀🤭
Edit: Thanks for the likes, people👍
What’re you talking about
@@JH-ij2nm He’s being “goofy” and I think it’s kinda funny, and I didn’t mean it in offense if that’s what your thinking.😄
Nobody:
Not a living soul:
Ryan: JuRrrY
😂😂😂😂😂
When your boy still can't say February
Montana Smith 🤤😍😍🤤
“Man Drops Potato” better become a thing. Make it happen, Shane and Ryan
Awkwar d it’s L from death note I knew you watched Buzz feed Unsolved in your spare time!
