Friday the 13th: The Series

I'm glad to see this finally out on DVD. But... a question... is Micki's (Robey's) 80's HUGE hair supposed to be stylish or what? It's downright scary!

I don't think I ever noticed her hair. I was too busy staring at her cleavage the whole time

We talking about, hair, cleavage or the show??
I used to love this show but it is really dated now and not as scary as I remember it.

Loved the show when it was on and am just starting to watch it again. I was just surprised at how crazy her hair looks now. I don't remember even noticing it back then.

I'm interested in how many here are fans of the show. I can't believe it took this long to release it on DVD.

It airs every morning on the Chiller Channel. I caught about 10 episodes or so this past summer and enjoyed it. It's really dated and not very scary, but still entertaining.

Robey's hair actually settles down by the final season.

I haven't seen it in years but I also enjoyed it. It was more Outer Limits than Friday the 13th, a title it should never adopted since it has nothing to do with the movie.

What cable provider has Chiller Channel? I've never heard of it.

It's on Directv, which I have and Dish Network.

Not sure on Cable availability. It's a cool little channel for 80's and 90's horror movies, TV shows. They also air the Nightmare on Elm Street TV series.

It's got to be worth watching on Halloween.

This series is pretty hit and miss but the Cronenberg directed episode is top notch stuff.
