next question?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I have been watching the mini-marathons when SciFi (us) runs them. I only ever see the same 16 episodes. I'm pretty sure they made at least 20 episodes. Why aren't the other episodes ever shown?

When the original package was offered up for syndication, only 16 were included because the remaining four were used / edited to make two Kolchak Movies called "Crackle of Doom" and "Demon and the Mummy". When this occured, it created a legal block for the rest to be included in future syndication packages. I have seen those four episodes aired however so someone must have figured out a legal way in which to do it.

The four episodes:

"Legacy of Terror"

"Firefall"

"Demon in Lace"

"The Energy Eater"

Hope this helps ;)

according to Frank Spotnitz: Low ratings. It was being buried by CSI. I think it was doomed from the atart. Poor selection of actors especially Kolchak. The series was getting better when the rug got pulled out underneath their feet
