User Reviews

Once more, Girard ALMOST catches up to Kimble...

This episode finds Richard Kimble (David Janssen) in Montana*...with Girard (Barry Morse) close behind. Early on in the show, Kimble gets arrested...but it's NOT what you are thinking. Some sort of western themed carnival is taking place in this small town and anyone NOT dressed in western duds is 'arrested'. It's all in fun but Kimble can't let himself be detained for a moment, as he knows Girdard is on his trail and he needs to keep moving. Ironically, the deputy (Bruce Dern) caught him and has no idea he's really a wanted man...nor does the Sheriff (Earl Holliman). However, when the Sheriff does, he decides NOT to help Girard. After all, he figures, there must be a reward out for Kimble and if he helps Girard, he'll only get half. So, he hides Kimble and asks his lady friend to help...though she isn't immune to the charms of the fugitive.

This is a decent but not particularly great episode of the series. As usual, Kimble's sweet manner wins over folks...but there isn't much to distinguish this episode one way or the other.

*This looks little like Montana to me--at least the parts of Montana I've seen. But at least it's not like the time Kimble was on the Virginia coast and you see mountains! As usual, it was filmed in California and has a definite rural California look to the scenery.
