The relentless Lt. Gerard (Barry Morse) has always insisted that capturing fugitive Richard Kimble (David Janssen) was just "unfinished business." But in "The Nemesis," an essential episode that is one of the highlights of this half-season set, it's personal. An unwitting Kimble has stolen Girard's car to make a getaway, not knowing that it contains Girard's young son, Phil, Jr. (Kurt Russell). Phil Jr. is a chip off the old block (he cleverly leaves a trail of his precious football cards to point his father in the right direction), but a selfless act by Kimble raises doubts in the boy's mind. "You and dad can't both be right," he questions. This is just one of the compelling human dramas at the heart of one of television's Most Wanted series. Now in his second year on the run after escaping from the Death Row-bound train, Kimble is "tired of looking over his shoulder… tired of running." In "Escape Into Black," he visits a small-town diner and loses his memory after the gas stove explodes. In "When the Bough Breaks," he hops a freight car that also carries a traumatized woman who has abducted a baby. Until he can find the one-armed man (Bill Raisch) he witnessed running from his home the night his wife was killed, he will have to endure "another shabby room, another lonely night." Not that Kimble doesn't have his champions. In the season-opener, "Man in a Chariot," a college law professor, argues Kimble's case before his students in a mock trial. In "World's End," the daughter (Suzanne Pleshette) of his former defense attorney contacts Kimble with potentially devastating news about the ever-elusive one-armed man and schemes to run away with him. In "Escape into Black," a compassionate hospital welfare caseworker (Betty Garrett) tries to find the one-armed man while Kimble recovers.

The episodes in this set maintain an unflagging pace, thanks to taut direction (the late Sydney Pollack directed "Man on a String," in which Kimble is a very reluctant witness in a murder case) and excellent scripts (George Eckstein, who wrote "Man in a Chariot" and "When the Bough Breaks" would co-write The Fugitive's final episode, a television benchmark). Among the great character actors who guest star in these episodes include Tuesday Weld as a manipulative and very twisted sister in "Dark Corner," Slim Pickens as a poacher in "Nemesis," and Ivan Dixon as a doctor who discovers Kimble's identity in "Escape Into Black." The Fugitive taps into the primal fear that was one of Hitchcock's favorite themes: What would you do if you were falsely accused? Janssen is unforgettable in his signature role as the man whose every instinct is to flee the scene and not get involved with the strangers whose paths he crosses. But we offer viewers the same advice the professor gives Kimble in "Chariot": "All I ask is that you stay around and see what happens." --Donald Liebenson

5 out of 5 stars GOOD TO SEE THE FUGITIVE AGAIN   January 16, 2010
Donna Caponigro (New York,, NY United States)

While it is not acceptable to have the original music removed it is good to be able to watch my favorite TV show again after 40 years. Let's keep the music real for future releases.


1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money on an altered product   January 5, 2010

I just got around to watching some of this set over the holidays and I was very disappointed to find I have a set with the replacement scores. Initially, I thought it wouldn't be that big a deal, but I was surprised how annoying and distracting the episodes sound without the original music. They just don't sound right and this greatly diminished the enjoyment for me. Killed my interest in the show. I won't be buying any future sets (unless I can get them dirt cheap somewhere). A real crime to do this to the fans of the show.

I bought the Fugitive Vol.1 season 2 thinking the music score had been corrected, it has not. I also was under the impression that if I got a copy that was not correct I could send it back for replacement discs. That option is also not available the cut off date was Sept. 1 2009. I just got my copy the third week of Sept. so I can not get it replaced, whats even worse is I e-mailed the address on the form they had to see if they would still replace my copy and they did not even accept the e-mail I guess they closed down the site. If you are a fan of the original show you would probably not be pleased with this purchase.

3 out of 5 stars NOT AVAILABLE IN ENGLAND!   August 22, 2009

I have volumes one to three of this TV classic and like so many of you I love the series for a number of reasons, one of which was the great score. I am dissapointed about the new music, but was pleased to read about the chance to get replacement discs. The only problem for those of us on this side of the Atlantic is that the offer to replace them only applies to you guys and the Canadians. Oh well, you can't win 'em all! It's a bugger as we say here but what can you do? If anyone knows a way for an aging British fan of the series can get these discs, spare me a thought. Bless you and here's to David Janssen!


5 out of 5 stars Still holds a record!   May 30, 2009

Season Two of the Fugitive gets even better! Dr. Kimble continues his search for the one-armed man.

Each episode is very well written, such as World's End, in which a woman in love with Richard hires a private detective to find the one-armed man. The episode When the Bough Breaks presents a psychiatric patient in a manner quite sophisticated for its time. Nemesis is perhaps one of the best, which introduces
Kurt Russell, who, as Lt. Gerard's son, ends up hiding in a car driven by Dr. Kimble.

Part two of the August 1967 finale still holds one TV record that has never been broken. The final episode in 1967 was watched by a phenomenal 72 percent of American homes with television sets at that time! While both the final episode of MASH in 1983 and the 1980 "Who Shot J.R." episode of Dallas had more viewers in sheer numbers, the final hour of the Fugitive retains the record for the highest percentage of homes with television sets to watch a TV finale.

CBS sent the replacement series with a quick turn-around time, and the wait was worthwhile! Let us hope they release all 4 seasons, preferably with the original music!
