Darren McGavin's "NightStalker" series, to me, was the direct ancestor of "The X-Files" and was the direct descendant of "The Outer Limits" and, to a lesser extent, "The Twilight Zone".

Newspaper reporter Kolchak's brushes with various creatures and spirits in and around Chicago on a series that was shot mostly at night was really scary TV. McGavin's persona fit perfectly within that series.

Thanks, Darren, for TV that scared the heck out of an impressionable 4-year-old who would watch "NightStalker" and then try to get to sleep. I STILL can remember scenes from that show! Brrr!

Wouldn't it have made more sense to just delete the post,and notify that poster by e-mail, so that smart-asses like me couldn't add to a meaningless thread?;-)

Good point!
Besides, I find the phrase to be entertaining...and with the passing of Don Knotts, I can't help picturing Barney Fife yelling 'MODERATOR ALERT! as Gomer tries to make another 'CITIZEN'S ARRAY-EST!';-)
