This is no surprise. The show really sucked.

"This is no surprise. The show really sucked."

And it was really bad programming since they put it up against another show that really sucked- CSI.

All the "will watch a sucky show" viewers were tuned to CSI.

Perhaps they should have tried it opposite of good shows and found their niche there.

I couldn't get past 10 minutes of the pilot, and fast-forwarded to the Darren McGavin 'cameo' just to see it for myself! I never came back!

What a Godawful show! Of course, it was foolish to try and update the original. I really dug the first "Night Stalker." Yes, the special effects were lame- I remember one episode where Kolchak was menaced by a guy wearing a rubber alligator head- but the writing was clever and the show was pretty spooky in a dark, early '70's kinda way.
