This CBS anthology of live dramatic plays consistently told stories of individuals or groups being pursued. Although the circumstances varied from show to show, the element of the hunter and the hunted was present in each episode.
The casting was strong, and several of the authors were well-known. The Daphne du Maurier story, ‘Kiss Me Again, Stranger’ (pictured), featured Jeffrey Hunter, Margaret O’Brien, and Mort Sahl; a Ross Macdonald thriller entitled ‘Epitaph for a Golden Girl’ starred Michael Rennie, Rick Jason, Rip Torn, Sally Forrest, and Joan Bennett; and Rod Serling provided ‘The Last Night in August’ with Franchot Tone, Dennis Hopper, and Cameron Mitchell.
Other actors appearing in the plays included Sal Mineo, Lew Ayres, John Cassavetes, Keenan Wynn, Martin Balsam, and Macdonald Carey.
The show aired on Wednesday evenings from 22 October 1958 to 14 January 1959.
