The Alfred Hitchcock Presents Companion

Rating:
Summary: Thank you Grams and Wikstrom
Review: This is a must have for any of you Hitchcock fans. Like The Outer Limits Companion, this book covers every aspect of the Hitchcock television series. Almost every episode has memories from the writers or actors or directors, trivia, bloopers, and other goodies. I ordered the book for myself but when it came in the mail Boy was I shocked! It's 660 pages thick! There are various chapters written by scholars covering Hitchcock TV show spoofs, Hitchcock TV collectables, Hitchcock TV shows that were produced and directed by Mr. Hitchcock that wasn't part of the series. All of the Hitchcock anthologies are listed. As an English teacher, I also noticed how well this book is gramatically correct - using the proper English as Hitchcock would have. This makes translations in other countries far easier to read. With the exception of a few hazy photos that are a little difficult to see, this is superb. Did I also mention the index is almost 40 pages thick? I only wish other television programs received the same treatment as Grams and Wikstrom have done.
