Harrison Ford. Well Harrison Ford did indeed play Dr. Richard Kimble in the movie "The Fugitive" made in 1993. However, that movie was based on the television series of the same name which ran from 1963 - 1967 and starred the late David Janssen in the title role. It was a tremendously popular show which attracted huge audiences during its original run and made Jannsen a household name throughout the USA, and indeed the UK when the show was aired over here. Janssen never really achieved the same level of stardom after the show ended, although he did star in the short-lived US detective series "Harry "O" during the Seventies. He sadly died of cancer in 1980.
