Readers might recall that [I was excited](https://thedailyeudemon.com/1969/) that the networks were bringing back *Night Stalker*. Well, my excitement was misplaced. I watched an episode last night, and it was bad. It's not even *Night Stalker*. They produced *X-Files* and called it "Night Stalker." They gave one of the leading characters the name "Carl Kolchak," but not Kolchak's personality. Instead of an ungraceful but endearing reporter who works by himself, they give us a cool *GQ* character with the obligatory female sidekick (who isn't even a sidekick; she's as much a part of the show as Kolchak). And although both characters are called "reporters," there is no writing and they investigate like cops.

The show is not only bad, it's fraudulent. Another classic case of media misleading consumers.
