Quotes

Dr. Kimble: You think being a fugitive has done something to my mind, you're forgetting my story is exactly the same as it was the night of the murder.
Lt. Gerard: And it was, and is, a lie.
Dr. Kimble: Are you so God-like, because you couldn't find a one-armed man, you don't believe he exists?
Lt. Gerard: I've done everything humanly possible to find him!
Dr. Kimble: I think you have. I wonder why.
Lt. Gerard: It's my job.
Dr. Kimble: It's also a curse, isn't it, Gerard? I think you have nightmares, too. Your nightmare is, after I'm dead you'll find him.

The Fugitive
24 January 2006 | by (Ft. Lauderdale) – See all my reviews

This is one of the greatest TV series of all time, why is it not available on DVD? and I'm not talking about bootleg VHS copies from Ebay for $300.00.

An outstanding classic television series that needs to be presented in it's entirety in a DVD set. The movie version was a bunch of bloated, Hollywood tripe all to typical of whats been put out today.

Painstaking effort has been made to present DVD material of such crap as Full House, Saved by the Bell, etc, etc. I'll bet we'll see Love Boat come out next. Why no Fugitive?

This is absolutely unacceptable.
