[Hitchcock arrives for his introduction dressed in a safari outfit and pith helmet]

One of the best TV series of all time, and one of the Master's greatest achievements!!!!!
28 September 2000 | by (cincinnati, ohio) – See all my reviews

Truly a classic, this long-running TV series(1955-65) was way ahead of its time. Its host, Alfred Hitchcock presented stories in this weekly, half-hour dramatic/suspense anthology that virtually no other program would even dream of presenting. Like many of Hitch's films, the stories presented frequently dealt with murder and deception, sometimes on a humerous level. Anyone expecting the show to end with the conventional happy ending would fare better to tune into another television program. In addition to hosting the show, Hitchcock directed several episodes of the series as well.
