    Cliffhangers is one of the best movies/series of all times

    I always knew the Cliffhangers series was a trilogy, but for some reason I can't remember "Susan Williams." Could be that they never showed that series too often on our local station. I'm quite sure, however, if I were to see it again it would all come back to me.

    Nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed "Secret Empire" and the best "Dracula" movie ever, with one of the greatest actors of all times, Michael Nouri. Do you remember him in "The Sands of Time" by Sidney Sheldon? He's just so brilliant!! Talk about nostalgia!! To watch Cliffhangers again would be like a dream come true. My family, particularly my sister and I never missed a beat, especially when "The Curse of Dracula" was showing.

    If someone, anyone knows where I can find the DVD or VHS for these series/movies, I would be most grateful.

    I LOVED "Cliffhangers"!

    I always looked forward to Tuesday nights to see the latest installments of the three stories. Of the three, my personal favorite was "Stop Susan Williams"...and it was great fun watching Susan Anton as the heroine getting herself out of every situation thrown at her. I was very disappointed when NBC cancelled the series (at least "The Curse of Dracula" ended beforehand; the whole purpose of that was to begin a brand-new "Cliffhanger" story while "The Secret Empire" and "Stop Susan Williams" conclude and another new story would circulate in place), but at least I got the chance to see the full-length movie version of "Williams" (as "The Girl Who Saved the World"). I would love to see this show again...maybe Sci-Fi Channel would consider rerunning it for awhile.

    I thought I was alone!

    I cannot believe anyone still remembers this show! For years, my sister and I thought we were delusional, as no one we spoke to from our generation had any recollection of watching such a series. We still rank the Cliffhangers trilogy as one of the best little memories of our childhood. It was a truly engaging show, often creepy, but always fun. We would glue ourselves to the set, popcorn at hand, and watch the crafty tales unfold without blinking.

    I actually still miss this!

    I remember this series fondly, under its actual title "Cliffhangers!". Even though I had a crush on Susan Anton (Hey, I was 8. Tall blondes were my thing then :D!), my favorite segment had to be "The Secret Empire" (This was the "Cowboy finds Atlantis" segment). I remember laughing hysterically when the the hero (the cowboy) was being pummelled senseless by a little green pointy-eared chimpanzee that was actually his Atlantean girlfriend's pet! I remember being bummed that it ended with him falling off a cliff and them showing him laying unconscious (maybe dead, even {?}). I wish this would somehow show up on TVLand or somewhere else. This show would be great to see again!

    I also remember this series.

    I was dedicated fan of this TV series and was greatly disappointed when it was canceled. I could hardly wait for the next show to come on again and looked forward to it every week. My favorite cliffhanger was Dracula but I had gotten caught up in the other two before it was taken off the air. I don't remember a lot about Stop Susan Williams or the Empire, but if given the chance I'd like to see them again just to see what I think of them today.

    Whenever I see Michael Nouri in a movie or TV show I think back to Cliffhangers. He did a great job as the Dracula character and he is great in whatever role he chooses to play.

    I wish I could get copies of this show on DVD.
