Thanks for posting this. Watching the final episode of The Fugitive is one of my fondest memories. I was 9 years old, and watching with my grandmother, who was a HUGE fan of that show. And many shows, but that was her ultimate fave.
She had 8 grandchildren, but by pure happenstance I was the only one who watched the final episode with her. Which was very fair, because it was from her that I got my love of mystery stories which has stood me in very good stead throughout my life.
Greatest TV show ending of all time is of course the final of “Newhart”, never to be topped and all was then forgiven by me.
The local newspaper TV reporter (Deseret News, Salt Lake City) gave away the ending of Newhart before it aired. I remember there being a lot of angry readers.
