I got a BARNABY JONES notification for this?

This episode was in no way directed by Joe Carnahan, and I'm perplexed as to why you would even think that it was.

I don't think the FCC has censorship jurisdiction over cable programming.

Winkler's sadly underrated OUT OF PRACTICE used to run on Universal HD and on Netflix. Stockard Channing, Chris Gorham, Paula Marshall, and Ty Burrell as family members, and the show is funny, funny, funny. Only lasted a season on CBS. Highly recommended you track it down.

CBS aired the colorized version in primetime in 1989 and 1990.

I'm not sure the animation turned out by the Korean artists in the 1970s was any better. May as well pay American workers.

Filmation's animation may not have been the best, but it was all done in the United States at a time when every other production company was shipping their work overseas (just like they do today, for instance THE SIMPSONS). Give Scheimer/Prescott/Sutherland props from keeping jobs in America.

U.S. SEALS II is brilliantly silly in its plotting and performing (everyone involved "gets it"), and the action scenes are miles beyond anything in THE AVENGERS or any other superhero movie you've seen. Mainly because they're real.

How do you get to be a TV critic without ever seeing THE X-FILES before?

Sooooooo…it's "I, Robot?"

Harry Falk, who never directed any horror AFAIK, really directed the hell out of Act IV.

You gotta do that STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO where John Davidson played the killer in drag. Stephen King called it one of the scariest shows he'd ever seen.

Brian Dennehy is also a Nazi in that episode, which is great.

I was just going to pipe in the same thing. There have been a ton of FUGITIVE riffs, which makes sense, because it's such a terrific concept allowing for a wide range of plots, guest stars, and different types of stories. There was even a sitcom called RUN BUDDY RUN, which was a parody of THE FUGITIVE (judging from…

I agree it's hard to tell, which is the joy of Morse's performance. I have always believed that Gerard came around to believing Kimble was innocent, but he was still dedicated to the job he was being paid to do (that's the way Jones played it in the film). However, Gerard clearly went far beyond the call of duty,…

Gerard did have a certain respect for Kimble, because he understood that Kimble was basically a good and decent man who, in his mind, made one terrible mistake. Considering the number of times Kimble saved Gerard's life, there's no way Gerard couldn't have been conflicted (which probably contributed to his psychosis).
