	Alfred Hitchcock Presents TV Show
		Even as the millennium approaches, Alfred Hitchcock's silhouette is still on television screens in the United States and dozens of countries around the world.
		Every episode of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" opened with an iconic silhouette (drawn by Hitchcock himself), the familiar "Hitchcock music" (actually Gounod's Funeral March of a Marionette) and a trenchant and amusing introduction written by James Allardice.
		The stories told on "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" emphasized irony as their chief ingredient, and as a result, many of them ended with virtue unrewarded and villains unpunished.

	DVD Review - Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Volume 4 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Although the idea of seeing Hitchcock climb a mountain is altogether hysterical, as is suggested by his opening presentation of the short, "The Crystal Trench" seems to be a story that was written around a surprise ending.
		It was also very interesting to see Hitchcock’s closing speech at the end of the episode, expressing his wish that parents would learn from the show the importance of keeping weapons out of reach from children.
		You have to applaud Hitchcock for succeeding on both the small and big screens and this volume of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" is a nice display of part of that success.

		Alfred Hitchcock Presents is the best show of its kind, a suspense/thriller series with more narrative chutzpah and devious plot twists than anything else that has been on network television sets before or since its debut in 1955.
		This writer hadn’t sat down and watched an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents in decades (my grandmother would often have it on in the background when we’d visit), and during the first ten minutes of this debut episode, I was fairly disappointed.
		I was waiting for that signature Hitchcock sensibility that would liberate the series from traditional whodunit to wondrous, subliminal classic status, and at first, it didn’t manifest any of that.

	ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS \| A TELEVISION HEAVEN REVIEW
		Hitchcock famously made jibes about the programmes sponsors, mainly due to his annoyance about the intrusion of commercial breaks during the show.
		However, these were lost on viewers outside of the US, so for each episode Hitchcock filmed two openings and two closings--one for American viewings and a second for European showings.
		For most of the third season Hitchcock even did the opening and closings in French and German, two languages that he spoke fluently.

		Referring to Hitchcock's priceless performances as host, with which he bookended his TV shows – Alfred Hitchcock Presents, The Alfred Hitchcock Hour – Stephen Ronan speaks of their surrealism.
		Hitchcock refers to “flushing out” the big game from its hiding places, by which he means the Hollywood stars in their mansions trying to avoid the prying eyes of the curious – much as the story's villain has just tried to defeat the crafty wiles of Inspector Brent.
		A further notable instance of Hitchcock's generosity in a good cause – especially where he knew the person(s) concerned – is how he did his level-best to obtain work for his old friend Angus MacPhail, the screenwriter, in the 1950s.
