***SPOILERS***

Warning: Spoilers
I'd be a lot less than honest if I didn't warn you about reading further. This episode is really lightweight as far as a storyline goes, but more than makes up for it in the one thing that always helps. Good looking women. For sure, two of them are pretty serious actresses. Namely Sue Randall, and the extremely sexy Carmen Phillips. That is what I've said about other series when they have something like a plot that doe move, but has no real substance, and that is what works so well, here. The dialogue swings from romantic baloney, to beatnik silliness, and the latter day Casanova is a blinkety blank dork who is an unbelievably lucky guy., who sells French bikinis and lingeree made in Omaha Nebraska. His girlfriends, and wives are being stalked by a killer, and Jeff, Roscoe, and Kookie sort it out and save the day. Nonsense, but fun, and, as I said, beautiful women. A 9.

When black-and-white was the norm

The plot is farfetched but amusing. It is noteworthy for who is in the cast. Sue Randall played the elementary school teacher in the classic sitcom Leave It to Beaver. This episode is perfect for those who study the history of television or are invested in nostalgia for a bygone era when shows were in back-and-white and plots were straightforward and devoid, at least overtly, of political spin. Also impressive is Louis Quinn's performance. He would have been perfect as Columbo. Timing.

I won't emphasize on this episode that I will forget in a few minutes. I comment it only because it is comments free for now. Only for the die hard fans of this kind if detective scheme. The story line has been explained above, so what's the use I copy it? Jazzy atmosphere, some action scenes, an intrigue that nearly made me fall asleep, what else can I say? I am happy that every episode of the show doesn't look like this one, because with more than two hundred ones, I would have thrown the towel since a while...

I will resume the rest of the show, the bulk, I admit. But I am courageous, so far this famous series is so hard to find. That's the reason why so few comments are written about it.

See ye folks, for other comments. You can count on me.
