Not With A Whimper - eh, not so good; Wife Killer - very good. Another good batch of episodes coming your way.
The problem with skipping the teaser and going right to ACT I is that you miss the opening credits sequence. The DVDs are constructed with the teaser and credits all in one chapter. So you skip ahead to chapter 2, and you've missed the credits sequence. For me, part of the charm, and the memories of these older shows was the opening credits sequence. It set the stage, gave a musical signature, and put us squarely in the right frame of mind for the episode about to commence.rjd0309 said:Ralph Senensky eventually upgraded to a website of his own.

He covers each of his directorial assignments in detail, including script pages and video clips. He directed 4 Fugitive episodes.
Count me as one who hates the teasers. When I'm showing an ep to someone who has never seen it, I usually jump straight to Act 1, skipping the teaser entirely.
I guess I have been caught up in the stories so much that it wasn't that obvious to me. But you are correct, now that I have seen this, I will probably be looking for the substitutions in the rest of the episodes.stevelecher said:The stunt doubles are blatant in many Fugitive's. Probably the earliest blatant one I can think of is the bar fight in The Other Side Of The Mountain.
This is the first of my "at least five more very good B&W episodes left."
Agreed, but arguably, no really truly great episodes. The kind that really shake Kimble and seem really important, if you know what I mean. Aside from The Judgment, no other episode really reaches those heights in story and performance. And even the final episode isn't as good as Northoak or Landscape. But, everyone's mileage varies.stevelecher said:There are at least five VERY good B&W episodes left.
