8/10
Hitchcockian western
6 November 2009
Warning: Spoilers
See Gene Barry and Darren McGavin in TRIGGERS IN LEASH; it's a pretty silly but thoroughly nice looking episode with two loco cowboys who fight over a hand of poker. Prefaced by Hitchcock who checks a gun, it tells about a couple of rancorous, mean, angry cowboys, Delaney and Hillman. Hillman has been too drunk but required that the poker continues, while Delaney cleaned him while maintaining he refused to play on because Hillman was so drunk. Directed by Don Medford, a Teleplay by Dick Carr, based on a story by Allen Vaughn Elston, played by Gene Barry, Darren McGavin, Ellen Corby and Casey MacGregor, this nonsense story is, as Hitchcock says, a western; Delaney and his rival Hillman want to suppress each other, they're both quite rabid.
