site update
Good afternoon, and Happy HumpDay, gentle readers!
Wanted to drop a quick update today as I realize that the MainPage new content has a bit slow this week. I've been toiling behind the scenes on a lot of graphic issues mostly, and -- as time has permitted -- I've gone about creating all of the necessary slicks for the single season existence of TV's legendary Kolchak: The Night Stalker. For those of you either too young to have heard of it or perhaps missed it in its original airing back in its 1974-1975 season, Carl Kolchak was an intrepid reporter tasked with exploring -- ahem -- strange new worlds within our very own existence. Vampires, ghouls, werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night was his preferred city beat; and actor Darren McGavin certainly made the role all of his own across both the season as well as the two telefilms used by the network to essentially launch this franchise. The X-Files creator Chris Carter -- along with several other Hollywood luminaries -- have often cited Kolchak as an inspiration behind so much of what has been turned out in fringe storytelling; and I, for one, really need to go back, give all those adventures a watch, maybe even review them in this space, and continue to promote it far and wide. From what I recall of the program, it was quite entertaining.
Also, I do know that not all that long ago I believe it was Kino Lorber brought both the telefilms and TV series into the modern era with some spiffy home video releases. Those of you with some cash-in-hand might wanna surf the web and make a purchase because stories this entertaining never go out of style.
In any event ...
All 20 episodes can now be found on their corresponding pages within SciFiHistory.Net's growing archives. Be sure to check 'em out at your convenience.
As always ... thanks for reading ... thanks for sharing ... thanks for being a fan ... and live long and prosper!
