The New Alfred Hitchcock Presents (TV Series)

TV Series (1985-1989). Alfred Hitchcock Presents, also known as The New Alfred Hitchcock Presents is a 1985 updated re-imagining of the classic series Alfred Hitchcock Presents. In 1985, the NBC aired a new TV-movie based upon the series, combining newly-filmed stories with colorized footage of Alfred Hitchcock from the original series introducing each segment. The movie was a huge ratings success, and sparked a brief revival of the anthology series genre that included a new version of The Twilight Zone amongst others. A new Alfred Hitchcock Presents series debuted in the fall of 1985 and retained the same format as the movie - newly filmed stories (a mixture of original works and updated remakes of original series episodes) with colorized introductions by Hitchcock. The new series lasted only one season before NBC cancelled it, but it was then produced for three more years by USA Network. (information from wikipedia.org).
