If you like The X-Files...if you like Supernatural...if you like to think about the unbelievable....you'll love this show. Don't look at it as a remake but judge it as its own show. The network were complete idiots to cancel it; every time I catch re-runs on Sci-Fi, I am struck anew by the moronic stuff we are expected to buy into instead of this well-acted, intelligent show with great stories and character development.

NS was the best inheritor of the X-Files legacy to date, but it never got a chance to get off the ground as it was negatively scheduled and canceled not even half way through the first season. Watch the unaired episodes and you will see how the show was just starting to develop the type of mythos and series-arc that made X-Files and Millennium such compelling shows season after season.
Included is the script of an unproduced Darin Morgan episode! Morgan stories are guaranteed award winners. This series was killed way too soon.
Also, this is the only way to hear the extended version of the unpublished theme music by Philip Glass (it plays over the end credits).

I remember seeing commericials and "trailers" for the show and recall thinking: this show will never last. Shows that center around giving unorthodox, non ordinary but oddly plausible and vastly more entertaining answers to seemingly mundane questions never seem to do well on network TV. Save the X-Files of course. I remember thinking the same thing about the similiarly short lived show on ABC entitled Mircales. And wouldn't you know it, both shows got cut at about the 6th episode. (Anyone hear the twilight zone music playing in the background?) The writers and producers do a great job of shining a black light on a crime and revealing it to be much more than what was readily apparent. Perri and Jain were my favorite actors in the show. I love Gabrielle's ability to deliver quick, wit filled dialogue. (She would have been soooo great as a regular on West Wing). And while Stuart Townsend was perfect in that he looked every bit the part of the typical guy next door who worked as an eager beaver journalist by day and mourned the loss of his wife, his dark, brooding persona definitely gave one the impression that he very easily could have been the one that killed her. That being said this series was not perfect. For instance, the pilot episode could have ended much better. Also the way the episodes were arranged could have been more effective. The episode "5 People You Meet In Hell," which I think is one of the best ones, should have been placed closer to the end when they could have more readily explained why that psycho, Damon, was able to "persuade" Kolchak to kill Perri. (Was that just a spoiler?) All in all, I was in agony when I watched the last episode, because I knew that there would be no more to follow. A good series and a great buy.

If this DVD had a different name, and they gave the charters different names it might be ok. Since they chose to change the basic premise of the series and the way Kolchak thought and worked it is a whole different and disappointing show that really isn't worth watching if you are a night Stalker fan.
