There use to be this TV show on about this guy who is a werewolf and this bounty hunter guy was always chasinging after him. I can't remember the name of the show if anyone can remember this show please reply to this tread. I know that the guy who was a werewolf was like a hitchiker and when he moved from town to town he would run into some kind of problem.....Kinda like on the shows Knight Rider, Baywatch and Walker Texas Ranger. Each show was dealing with something.

no it wasn't the HULk this show was on in the late 80's early 90's. He was a werewolf and he helped people when he was in that town/city. He wore a brown leather jacket I believe but at the end of the show he would move on. The bounty hunter after him wore a cowbow hat and carried a shot gun and tons of silver bullets. I think it was USA that aired this show but I can't remember I just remember what the show was about

Eric Cord was a graduate student in college whose life took a bizarre twist when his best friend Ted asked Eric to kill him with a pistol loaded with a silver bullet - because Ted was a werewolf! Eric thought his friend was off his rocker, but was forced to oblige when Ted turned into a werewolf and attacked him. Unfortunately Eric was bitten in the attack, and found that he was now afflicted with the deadly curse. The only way to rid himself of it was to find and kill "the source of the bloodline," the mysterious Captain Janos Skorzeny. Eric embarked on a cross-country hunt for the swaggering Skorzeny while he, in turn, was being tracked by bounty hunter Alamo Joe. Although Eric was now prone to turn into a werewolf under the full moon, fortunately for the honest citizenry he only seemed to attack criminals, evil folk, and other werewolves.

Eric finally found and killed Skorzeny, but another complication arose; it turned out the source of the bloodline was actually Nicholas Remy, a remarkably well-preserved, powerful, and diabolical 2,000-year-old werewolf. Eric's quest to rid himself of his curse continued. Viewers never found out if he succeeded, however, since the series was canceled soon after Remy's arrival.

Werewolf was a very atmospheric series with vivid, even terrifying, special effects. The Fox network promoted the show heavily during the fall of 1987, and straight-faced announcements were aired giving viewers a toll-free number to call if they had sighted a werewolf. More than 400,000 calls were received. Later announcements featured Dr. Stephen Kaplan, an instructor of parapsychology, providing information about werewolves.

I dont think it ever reached this country, If I did it probably went to the Sci-Fi channel or something I probably never saw it.

I thought this show was good. If you like Angel, Buffy, Highlander or Forever Knight than you would like this if it was still on

I loved this show when I was a kid. Scared the pants off me. It was good because it had a good story arc that built up as the lead character got closer and closer to finding the one eyed werewolf.
