Ok, thanks for the big hint, the series was a little before my time, I think my bedtime was way before it showed at night, but I think the answer you're looking for is.....The Fugitive?
I just came in on this one, and of course it's the Fugitive.
There are plenty of shows that are 'before our time'. TV used to be thick with stations that ran reruns of anything and everything. That seems to be history now, outside of the few bones TVland throws us.
On the plus side , we have DVD's, though for reasons I can't fathom, shows like 'the Fugitive' are monkeyed with, 'updating' music scores that essentially change the experience.
I've been watching the first season of 'My Three Sons', which wasn't a bad show for the first few years. The music score almost bizarre at times. At least they ell you in fine print on the box that the music has been changed. They just don't tell you why. I'm sure there's some legal thing that saves the company a dollar or two, but I can't imagine what that would be.
Indeed. Most of the quotes were from the final episode, where the one-armed man is killed.
I had heard that originally, Lt. Gerard was to be the real murderer, but so many people figured it out that they changed changed it so that teh one-armed man really was the killer. I remember seeing the show, and especially the final episode. I think it was the most-watched show ever (at that time).
They did consider making Gerard the murderer, but the idea was dismissed right away, according to the stuff I've read about the show.
The one armed man isn't killed in the last episode. Kimble finally catches up to him on top of a water tower, and basically beats a confession out of him.
As I'm writing this, I'm thinking it's possible the one armed man DID die, though I don't remember it that way.
Gerard would have had to be convinced he did it before he died though, or he'd still have gone on accusing Kimble.
I seem to remember the OAM swinging something like a wrecking ball, trying to clobber Kimble with it, and gets shot. Admittedly, I haven't seen that episode since it first aired, so my memory could be a bit sketchy.
Wow, a lot of nostalgia on this one, I have only very vague memories of this series, but I do remeber watching a lot of My Three Sons, and westerns-Gunsmoke, Bonanza, Rawhide, Branded, and Maverick when I was a kid, the theme songs were everything back then, we even made up alternative words to some of them...
I actually have a bit of trivia related to The Fugitive though, my San Francisco attorney served on the prosecution side of one of the trials of the case the tv series was based on, and there really wasn't a one armed man in the actual case.
As a participating member of this ranch I think you ought to know that we're liable to lose over five hundred head of cattle in the very near future.
they're already starting to eat cactus and loco weed.
I know. I had a look at them the other day -- I think we better try and unload them. San Francisco. Why not see what price they're offering down there?
I thought of that -- but we don't have the hands to get them there, no matter what the price.

We been waitin' for you, Pa. (looks off) Whooee. Who was that?
One of Dan Cupid's henchmen. There were arrows zingin' all over the place. Maybe your bother was lucky to be out on the range with you.

Hey, how’d the big shoot go?
Well, it went splendidly, Dad. I thought you were going with them to the airport to pick up Freddie.
Yeah, I decided to stay home, do some decorating.
