Thriller (1960–1962)
8/10
Good but not excellent Tv anthology show.

Do not confound it with ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS and " " HOUR Tv series, from the nearly same period and also a famous, notorious Tv anthology too. In AH series, you always had a twist ending; here, not necessarily. Here, you may deal with "normal" long length features topics, with a predictable ending. But I admit that's not a criterion of quality. A twist ending story may be lousy and a classic ending may also "hide" a fantastic story. Anyway, I won't deny the overall quality of this TV show host by Boris Karloff., there are amazing, terrific episodes, as in ANY series. But I would prefer AH if I take some distance and see the overall show. And this series THRILLER also has the particularity of offer dramas, crime, thrillers, film noir, mystery, horror, and once or twice a bit sci-fi schemes. In AH I may remember that there was not as many lines of directions, it remained dramas and crime. But it sometimes had comedy topics, which is not here, as far as I remember.
