The manhunt continues! The Fugitive returns with Season Two - Volume One -- 15 episodes on DVD for the first time ever! David Janssen stars as Richard Kimble, the doctor falsely convicted of killing his wife and determined to prove his innocence by leading his pursuer, Lt. Gerard (Barry Morse), to the one-armed man who committed the crime. Stark and moody, this highly influential drama was perfectly constructed and maintained constant tension. The series made Janssen one of TV's first superstars, as each week the actor brilliantly portrayed the restless soul who roamed the country in pursuit of the real killer, getting involved with strangers in need. Always new people. Always new places. But at the end, there is only the road for...The Fugitive!

Editor's Note
This classic 1960s television series features David Janssen as Dr. Richard Kimble, a man falsely convicted of murdering his wife. While he's being transported to death row, his train derails, setting him loose and granting him the opportunity to clear his name. As Kimble scours the country for his wife's murderer--the famed "one-armed man"--he must also keep one step ahead of the law--i.e., Lt. Gerard (Barry Morse), who is pursuing him. A groundbreaking series with an engaging storyline and excellent direction, THE FUGITIVE's finale was the highest-rated television episode of its time. The hunt is on in this first batch of episodes from the series' second season.
