For the latest 'That's All, Folks!' IllusiveKen takes us through the 1967 finale of 'The Fugitive,' and the day the running stopped
Most scripted television shows end in cancellation, so there’s something special about the ones that get the chance to go out on their own terms. This year, Ken Lowe is revisiting some of the most influential TV shows that made it to an officially planned final episode.It’s interesting to think of what a show likeis reasonably close , but it’s nowhere near the same tone.
The one constant throughout the show’s town-of-the-week plots is Kimble being hassled by the fuzz, and under the all-seeing eye of authority. In the show’s pilot, Kimble takes up a crappy job at a cheap bar and has about five seconds to get his clip-on bow tie situated before encountering an abusive, obsessive husband who is stalking his wife, the bar’s timid piano player.
That’s basically the thesis statement on the show: There’s no catharsis for our hero, who is not clever or resolute. He’s just not willing to give up. It’s all Kimble’s got.had dipped significantly in popularity, and Janssen was reportedly worn down by the significant demands of the role: Jacqueline Scott, who played the recurring role of Kimble’s sister, said the long hours of the production had taken their toll on him.
Kimble doesn’t know that the news of the one-armed man’s arrest is another clever trap laid by Gerard. But as it happens, Gerard is recognized by a courtroom stenographer, Jean who knows Kimble’s family and tips him off in time. Jean becomes Kimble’s conspirator and love interest as she hides him from Gerard and helps him tail the one-armed man, who is bailed out by a mysterious benefactor before escaping. The one-armed man swears that he didn’t kill Kimble’s wife, but that he saw who did.
