hang on a minute, are you talking about the film or something else.?

 

The TV show is called "48 Hours" because they typically show 48 hours in the life/lives of (insert subject name here).

 

*rolls eyes* that made a lot of sense

 

they do? to me it just seems like they investigate crimes & stuff, no matter what time frame, but i dunno, i sorta get what your saying, you might be right...

 

oh, i didn't realize there was a film, no i didn't mean that...

 

I think that was the original premise of the show. Or I may just be thoroughly confused. Let's ask Mr. Owl....
