...I agree that they should take this one up to the task...and this time, do it right!!!
A while back, ABC tried to do a modern contemporary version of "Kolchak: The Night Stalker"; it was quite short lived, and did not even begin to hold a candle to the original. The 'reinvented' series strayed away from the supernatural edge that made the original series so great (and an inspiration for Chris Carter to later do "The X-Files"), and concentrated on pursuing serial killers; it also gave us a brooding characterization of Kolchak, who had definate personal issues to contend with.
...so, I reinerate....Hey, Hollywood!!! Let's do "Night Stalker" right, this time spring-boarding off of what made the original series so great.

Yes, great show. The entire series is available on DVD from Universal. The first two pilot films The Night Stalker and The Night Strangler are also on DVD

I watched it before it became a rerun! I was small then, scared the heck out of me, but I watched anyway, liked it. I have heard it is now out on DVD, it is on my list to get.

I loved it and have it on DVD. It was just scary enough and had really good comic relief. The one with the zombie scared me when I first saw it.

I loved that show. I miss all the older T.V. shows. There is so much violence now. Mind you there are some good ones, but not that many. In my opinion anyway.

Yes, one of my favorite shows growing up. Well done, and always scary and unexpected.
