Summary: GREAT SHOW- Terrible production by studio
Comment: I have the entire series on VHS...all 22 episodes NOT just the 20 episodes they put on this DVD set. I want this series on DVD but will not buy it after reading the crappy reviews from others. Not until the studio restores the quality and production to where it should be. So hint hint Universal Studios...get your act together and I will buy this set for sure.

Summary: One of My Very Favorites
Comment: Long on my DVD wish list, it is beyond terrific to finally have this delightfully culty show on DVD. Dated effects, limited TV budget, implausible storylines - fine, whatever. Who cares? Its Kolchak! Its just a fun show, and one I discovered during a lot of late night cram sessions in college when the show started airing on the early incarnation of the Sci-Fi Channel. Heavy on atmosphere, some terrific dialogue, quirky characters, and most importantly, wonderful actors like Simon Oakland and especially the infectiously charming Darren McGavin. If ever an actor and a character were made for each other, its McGavin and Kolchak. He's impossible not to like. A true television star, because you wanted to watch him week in and week out. If you're a fan, you know already know exactly what I mean.

Comment: what a classic very thrilling and on the edge seat type of movie great for rainy days i wish they made these kind of movie today
Customer Rating:
Summary: greatest show of the seventies
Comment: This show was great when I was a kid and it's still good. Funny and still a little scary. Now I have the joy of my son getting to watch these classics. He's young and he laughs and gets scared and sodesn't want to go to bed sometimes. He even said he wanted a blue suit like Kolchak.

Summary: A childhood classic
Comment: This show had a lasting impression on me as a 10 year....it scared the crap out of me.
Seeing it as an adult I see how bad the writing is and especially the special effects, but still love watching it.
I now see why Darren McGavin quit the show !!
