His energy, enthusiasm, mannerisms, and general demeanor can never be duplicated. It was a unique combination of concept, actor and execution.
I hope for the success of the remake, but fear for its viability.

It is with regret that I confirm "Night Stalker" has been canceled. While I’m disappointed the series has come to an end, I am enormously grateful for the experience and the opportunity given me by the network and Touchstone Television. I would like to thank our amazingly talented cast, wonderful crew, killer post-production department, terrific writing staff, producers and partners in crime Daniel Sackheim and John Peter Kousakis, the incredible Jana Fain, and all of you who watched and enjoyed the show.
It was a blast.
To make a memorable ABC Movie Of The Week that spawns a block of made for TV movies featuring the same character before ABC optioned the character for a series is no small feat.
McGavin and Carl Kolchak made it look simple!
Though Kolchak isn't Kolchak without his seersucker suit and pork pie hat!
Jack.
The new show was cancelled after 6 episodes. No Darren Mcgavin to carry it.
