Does this show run on syndication at all anymore?


It use to run on this local channel here in NYC 5-6 years back and then it stopped. Luckily it ran the entire four seasons SO i got to see every episode. I was just wondering if this ran on any channels else-where.

Thanks
Johnny.

You know at times I keep hearing people ask about the old TV series "Where can I find that show on TV?"...whats the point?? Just buy them on DVD.

It airs weeknights in the Memphis, TN area on KVTV (It's a local channel in the midsouth area that airs nothing but classic tv from the 60s-80s) at 7:00 PM CT following Knight Rider and just prior to Rockford Files.

We can DO IT ALLLL DAY LONG, (We'll have to pay more for the light bill if we do it at night!)

There's something magical when one watches the show on a network channel. The DVD experience is a "lonely" one.

The "MeTV" channel represented above is now picked up in a lot of markets across the country. "The Fugitive" is on every Sunday night for east coast viewers at midnight or 11pm Central time.

And yes, I also prefer the over the air experience to watching on a DVD.

I agree. I prefer watching shows and movies on the TV instead of buying them on DVD. I don't really know why. Maybe it's the feeling that there are many others watching it at the same time I am. A shared experience, I guess.

Anyway, I've watched many Fugitive episodes on the nostalgia channels like Decades and ME-TV recently. One of them showed a Fugitive marathon all weekend long a month ago.

That isn't exactly a nice thing to say...
Most people can barely manage cable bills!
I realize that you posted in 2010 but not all of us can afford to go out and buy a TV series. Some of us have other priorities like paying our bills. I don't even have cable due to the rising costs. We now have an antena attached to our roof. Thank goodness we get MeTV. I get to see this wonderful show each Sunday night.

Just don't assume that everyone can afford to shell out the money these days for an old TV show. Not everybody can! Don't be insulting!

Sorry, it took so long to answer you but I was bringing in the groceries.

The show is on channel decades. ?

Times do change. Now ten years later. It's on at least two stations in syndication.
