That was a fun show. A good twenty years ahead of its time.
Definitely agree with that.

They tried to remake it in the middle oughts. Didn't last more than a few episodes. That being said, in the original, there was one episode that stood out to me as I watched on DVD a few years back. The episode was The Werewolf and it had Kolchak being assigned to a cruise ship to check out mysterious deaths. There was another passenger assigned as his roommate. The other passenger asked Kolchak what he did for a living and Kolchak responded that he was with the press. The other guy said something along the lines of "Oh, the fifth column" and Kolchak responded "No, the fourth estate." Prescient.
