Trivia

This was the first US TV series ever to resolve its story line and air a definitive ending, despite network objections that doing so could harm its syndication revenue. The 2-hour finale, "The Judgment," garnered the highest TV ratings ever up to that time, a record it held for many years afterward. See more...

Factual error: The train transporting Kimble to the death house, stock footage of which appears in the intro throughout the series, is pulled by a European engine not used on trains in the USA.

Never Wave Goodbye (2) (season 1, episode 5)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: In Part 1, Kimble worried about Gerard tracing him by a match he left behind. We got a close-up when he tore the match out of the book: it was the 3rd in a row of 5. But here, as he looks at the matchbook and worries again, the close-up shows the only match missing from the book is the 5th one.

Continuity: Gerard is rowing the life raft with his back to the shoreline. But in the next shot, he's instantly facing in the other direction as the waves begin tossing the raft.

Smoke Screen (season 1, episode 7)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Dr. Kimble says here that he interned in New York. In "The Survivors," we were told that he interned at County Hospital in Fairgreen, Indiana.

Nightmare at Northoak (season 1, episode 11)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: When Gerard leaves the cell block, Kimble is at the cell door with his hands on the bars. Next shot, as Gerard exits, the cell door is visible in the background, and Kimble is no longer standing there. But in an immediate cut back to the cell, he's back with his hands on the bars again.

Glass Tightrope (season 1, episode 12)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Kimble's wanted poster in this episode lists his birthplace as Beloit, Wisconsin. In every other episode featuring close-ups of the poster, Kimble's birthplace is Stafford, Indiana.

⇓

Continuity: When Rowland's wife unfolds Kimble's wanted poster, the center crease is peaked toward her. But when we see a close-up of it, the poster has been folded the opposite way, with the crease pointing away from her.

Terror at High Point (season 1, episode 13)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Dan tosses a silver dollar into the puddle of water and we see it sink. A few shots later, though, the coin is visible again, impossibly "floating" on the puddle's surface.

The Girl from Little Egypt (season 1, episode 14)

⇑
⇓

Visible crew/equipment: In the flashback to the night of Helen's murder, Kimble drives to the deserted lake after their argument. When he opens the car door, the wing window reflects several film crew members very clearly, including one person's arm and wristwatch.

Home Is the Hunted (season 1, episode 15)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Kimble goes home to Stafford, Indiana. But a sign visible when he gets off the bus says he's in Madison, Wisconsin.

Where the Action Is (season 1, episode 18)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Kimble and Chris are on a busy freeway with several other cars when a police car pulls them over. But when they stop, the other cars all vanish and the road is suddenly deserted.

Angels Travel on Lonely Roads (2) (season 1, episode 22)

⇑
⇓

Visible crew/equipment: After Kimble finishes stacking wood in the barn and is putting his shirt back on, the boom shadow moves across the wooden chair hanging on the wall behind him.

Somebody to Remember (season 1, episode 25)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: The wine crates on Kimble's hand truck in the opening scenes shift positions by themselves between takes.

Never Stop Running (season 1, episode 26)

⇑
⇓

Factual error: The druggist makes a phone call by dialing only 5 digits. By this time (1963), U.S. telephone numbers were 7 digits long.

⇓

Continuity: Ralph's brother hits him over the head with a bottle, which shatters. When Kimble runs past the same spot a few shots later, though, the broken glass is gone.

⇑
⇓

Factual error: This is the only episode in which we see Kimble hotwire and steal a car. But he does it in seconds (two whole decades before MacGyver), with nothing but a foil cigarette package liner. Not likely. He'd need a screw driver or pocket knife, at the very least.

Revealing: The stunt man's face can be seen during Kimble's fight with Ralph outside the hospital.

Storm Center (season 1, episode 28)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Kimble and Marcie take shelter from a hurricane inside an abandoned house. They go straight to the kitchen to search for food. When they then enter the living room, a fire has appeared in the fireplace, even though no one was out there to build it.

⇑
⇓

Audio problem: The house Kimble and Marcie are holed up in certainly has remarkable soundproofing. There's a 100 mph hurricane raging outside, yet the moment they close the door, it's completely quiet inside. Throughout the episode, the storm sounds are audible only faintly, and only when the hurricane is relevant to the story line.

⇓

Factual error: Harry falls overboard from the boat's port side. Kimble sees this happen, yet in the next shot, he runs to the starboard side to look for some sign of Harry in the water.
