"Runner In The Dark"
s2 e27
Director: Alexander Singer
Writer: Robert Guy Barrows
Mar 30, 1965
Dr Kimble takes refuge in a home for the blind, unaware one resident is the town's former police chief
Solidly entertaining episode, with a great guest star in Ed Begley as the blind but suspicious cop, and a classic twist ending

One of my favorite aspects of the GOAT drama series:
The Fugitive never falls back on the easy "framed and railroaded" cop out. When forced, Kinble will admit he had a fair trial.
But he was convicted anyway. And what could be more disturbingly alienating than that?

I've recently bought The Most Wanted Edition DVD set of the series and it's really a solid show. That would be a hell of a way to have to live

Looks like good old I. Stanford Jolley in the fourth box, talking 'salvation.'
Always like seeing that guy. Played sleek villains in scores of b-westerns, before winding up in 'old man' bit parts in sixties tv.

I almost mentioned him but decided no one would care
ISJ shows up all the time in golden age tv westerns (pretty much all I watch these days)

Janssen must have had good hearing.

Yep, in 60s tv, I. Stanford Jolley fit the bill for casting directors looking for a grizzled sort of dusty, rangy dirt-farmer or bum. But if they needed an even more grizzled and more seedy bum-like character, they'd probably go with William Fawcett. On the other side of the coin, if they needed a tad less grizzle, but still low-achieving and ornery type, they'd likely go with Trevor Bardette.
Love seeing the old-guard pros still around, doing their bits in 50s/60s television. Their presence is often a welcome tonic, perking up old shows, and offsetting the often overly-angsty method acting styles of the younger crop of performers who were flooding in from the East Coast.

TVs had like 12 channels (2-13) Some cities only had 4-5. And you had to get off the couch to change it.
And half of those were nonsense channels.
4-5? You are significantly overestimating the number of channels in many areas. I was born in 1961. For all of my years at home in the country near Shreveport, we had 3. We had 3 (ABC), 6 (NBC), and 12 (CBS) and the NBC station wasn't always clear.
A lot of the time, the set of soap operas you grew up with (Cuz your momma and mamaw definitely watched them) depended on what station near you was the strongest.
FWIW, I remember hearing my mom talking about The Fugitive. The 2 shows I remember her talking about were The Fugitive and Peyton Place.
