This week, we delve into classic small-screen macabre with a review of the highly-rated 1972 TV movie, "Kolchak: The Night Stalker." This is the first of two TV movies which led to the single season of a Kolchak TV show, which in turn inspired "The X-Files."

- Preston is the big Kolchak fan in the group. How much, if any, were the other Geeks impressed by it?

- Which odd comparison did one Geek make between Kolchak and a certain lawyer show character from the '80s & '90s.

- Gayle Foster was an intriguing support character with an unclear profession and a surprising relationship with Kolchak. Which Geek(s) liked the mystery around Gayle, and which Geek(s) would have preferred more clarity around who & what she was?

- Did we see enough of the vampire in the movie? Did the Geeks agree on this, or were there differing opinions?

- Which Geek had a bit of a problem with Kolchak's publisher being so hesitant...to publish a story.

- Which Geek(s) appreciated the time period in which this TV movie was made and adjusted their expectations accordingly?

- What was the score of this movie's biggest fan?

- What unofficial connections does Kolchak have to "The X-Files"?

- What excuse did Todd find to mention "Babylon 5" this week?

- Which Geek at one time wanted to be a reporter in the field?

- And, did the Geeks forget to roll for a future topic in this episode?

Listen now for the answers to these and other journalistic questions as we report on "Kolchak: The Night Stalker."

So far, in season 4, we've had the 3rd & 4th of our four Christmas movie reviews, a review of a modern western, a 2023 year-in-review special, and now our first review of a TV movie. Coming...sometimes in 2024, we have the reviews of a video game "movie," a mainstream semi-modern fantasy, a sexy heist movie, and streaming channel horror movie trilgoy; plus a ranking of the MCU Phase 2, and much more. Stay tuned, and let us know what you'd like us to cover.
