192. The Runner
Original air date: 17 September 1972
Rerun 8 April 1973
The FBI receives a strong start for its eighth season, especially with its supporting cast. They read like a “Who’s Who” of 1970s television:
- Robert Urich (Vegas, Spenser: For Hire)
- David Soul (Starsky and Hutch)
- Jim Davis (Dallas)
Inspector Erskine trails an escaped federal prisoner who abducted a young girl and vanishes into the Oregon wilderness. The athlete knows the terrain well, which means the inspector is forced to anticipate his moves.
Jim Davis, who guest starred in this episode, often played Western characters. He was well known for his potrayal of John Ross (Jock) Ewing in the TV series Dallas from 1978 to 1981.
