I am fortunate enough to have been around when this series first aired although too young to stay up and watch it. I really discovered the series in the 70's on a PBS station in Pennsylvania that aired the series. Then in the early 90's a cable network aired the entire run of the show two or three times. I taped nearly all the episodes and I really enjoy watching them because 99.9% of TV that is not news these days is crap. I have seen the movie and a couple of the new shows (now cancelled). The movie and newer series were good, but why mess around with a classic. This was like re-painting the Mona Lisa. The original series, especially the black and white episodes were first rate television-noir. There is one and only one Fugitive - David Janssen. He left us way too soon. Check out his filmography - a few of his made-for-TV movies are very good, particularly S.O.S. Titanic and High Ice. I wish that some network would show the Harry-O series someday, another Janssen classic.
