The
Hitchhiker
Explanatory Note:
When I began reviewing episodes of The Hitchhiker, I worked
off the commercially available American DVD collection, which
featured a supposed 'best of' selection. I soon acquired,
however, the Canadian sets, which featured complete seasons of the
show. Therefore, my introductory notes on the series can be
found in first review I did, of Episode 24, Last
Scene. Meanwhile,
the 14th episode, Nightshift,
was also similarly reviewed out of order.
Since then, however, I have attempted to follow episode order,
although it turns out that even the Canadian DVDs weren't always
arranged in proper episode order. Therefore, with the
exception of Last Scene,
I have listed the reviews in episode order, although the date of
review is also listed for those who might prefer to read the reviews
in the order posted.
Last Scene* (Season 3, Episode 24)
We hit the road with the master of moronic suspense.
