    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    IMO, Never Wave Goodbye is where The Fugitive hit its stride. It's the episode that grabbed me in 1963 and made me a life long Fuge fan.

    If someone is unfamiliar with the show, they wouldn't know the music difference but I can imagine the show having less impact on this new viewer as opposed to one that watches the original version. I think the music is that important to the overall presentation. By the way, hello everyone. :)

    Thanks for the info, Harry. One of the great Fugitive stories though the part featuring the punks is obvious padding to fill out the full two hour time slot. This song always was a bit more distinctive than the usual radio music featured.

    Thanks Harry-N. Unfortunately, this too will feature the Heyes music cues on seasons 2 and 3. At least it did on their weekend binges. Still, good to see it broadcast.

    There's almost too many scenes to recount that are diminished by the Heyes blaats. One that comes to mind for me is Nicest Fella You'd Ever Want To Meet in Act 4, when Kimble's running from the sheriff and it's just Kimble's feet being shown and then the sheriff's boots striding. The change in...

    They won't notice but somehow, the show might not seem as powerful or memorable as it did for us when we first fell in love with it. I wasn't conscious of it at first but I know the music was part of the pathos of this show for me.

    I dug out that CD from the box set after these recent posts. Had it in my car for over a week, listening to music from The Fugitive. Can't say there are many shows I'd do this with. Mighty good music though. I do this with my 30-something daughter every couple of years; she groans and...

    I'm virtually certain that wonderful music is amongst the Ruggolo cues written for The Fugitive. Very likely on the CD of music cues included with the 33 disc set.

    In the flashbacks from "Little Egypt," Kimble and Helen get in their fight after he reveals he'd met with Ross Carter, someone who encouraged them to adopt a child. It would have been cool if they had remembered that name when they came up with the Lloyd Chandler character in The Judgement...

    Person of Interest: Fifth and Final Season

    Normally I would agree with you but since the last episode is this Tuesday and time is short, I think this time, Greer is dead. I still have trouble with the airless room scenario. Seemed like an Adam West Batman episode death trap.

    Person of Interest: Fifth and Final Season

    Maybe I'm not as smart as the show, but why couldn't Greer simply have put a bullet in Finch's head instead of having to subject Finch (and himself) to the oxygen depriving room? This all seemed rather easy tonight after two seasons of always being a step behind Samaritan. Next week will be...

    Person of Interest: Fifth and Final Season

    At the end of episode 13, I hope Finch, Reese, and Fusco are alive, free, and waiting for a new number who needs their help.

    Well, who knows what could happen in a small town jail? Of course, it's a TV show and making all those escapes over 4 years would be far more difficult than portrayed on this show. I've said for years that Kimble should have called the Hollister family from about three states away in Ñicest...

    I think Stuart Jerome can feel proud of World's End too. It's a nice episode. Kimble caught a couple of lucky breaks but it's kind of cool that by doing the right thing, Pleshette's character secured his escape. She had to have learned that they would have been stopped at the airport...

    Lois is far more interesting for me than Sandy Dennis. Hmm, suddenly I'm hungry for a Royale with cheese. You know Carab, I generally start with disc 2 also, for just your reasons. Never Wave Goodbye, the first episode I saw in 1963, is almost as good as Fear In A Desert City as an...

    Ha, I wondered if this specific performance bugged you or not. Of course we can differ on this. I just never thought about her twitchiness until you mentioned it. At least you can tolerate Lois Nettleton's twitchiness. ;)

    Well, I watched Other Side Of The Mountain tonight, paying close attention to Sandy Dennis. I haven't seen that much of her work but, in this instance, her performance seems totally appropriate for the part. Perhaps she honed her twitchy style as she matured. There may be just a bit here but...

    I'm going to have to watch Other Side Of The Mountain now. Didn't think she was too twitchy there.

    And then at the end, with the police hot after him, finds the defective helmet and takes the time to tie it to the line that they would soon be pulling up. Remarkable. ;)

    For pretty good reason. It's a bit of a stinker.

    I cheated and looked it up, though I didn't know which Janssen film it would be. I figured one of the actors had to be Brian Keith, looked up his output for the period, and found a movie that had two guest stars from The Judgement. Didn't expect it to be those two, thought Richard Anderson...

    After our extensive review of S4, did anyone revisit one of the stellar S1 episodes, like Search In A Windy City, Angels, Nightmare At Northoak, or many others, to revisit the intensity that is mostly missing from S4? Wonderful!

    Hi guys. Sorry for a couple errant "quote only" posts, but my touch pad doesn't seem to allow me a way to post right now and I was pushing every button to see what might work. On the laptop this morning. Had a couple comments yesterday, but today, not that much. Thanks for the video Harry.

    You must be reading a different thread than I am. I see nothing but love for this wonderful show.

    Ha, my sense of irony and enjoyment of dark humor makes me kind of like the idea that a special, concluding episode to a series that ran four years would feature Kimble getting tantalizingly close to the one armed man, only to be captured and hauled off to death row at the last minute. This...
