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.
