Recently
I wrote that the finale of the 1960s series The Fugitive was being shown again
on television. A lot of you responded, so I wanted to pass on good news in case
you missed the two-parter or, indeed, the entire rerun of the 120-episode
series.
That finale, called The Judgment, will be
shown yet again this Friday night. I confirmed with Memorable Entertainment
Television, which runs classic series, that it is showing the two hourlong
episodes back to back beginning at 8 p.m.
In
addition, Me-TV will air the entire series again, beginning at midnight Sunday
(meaning it ends at 1 a.m. Monday). That’s good news for fans of Dr. Richard
Kimble (played by David Janssen), who returns home to find his wife slain and a
one-armed man fleeing.
If
you missed the network’s previous run of The Fugitive, this is your chance to
have some fun. Watch it each week and count the aliases that Kimble uses as he
travels the country seeking the real killer. Count the odd jobs he takes, the
women he woos, the injuries he incurs. And, as fellow Fugitive-philes David and
Traci pointed out, try to keep up with the number of battered old suitcases he
discards during his weekly getaway. Enjoy!
