Watching MeTV Notes And Comments

Some bit of trivia and much entertainment was derived, watching some early morning programming on MeTV.

A superb “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” “Man With a Problem” aired originally in 1958, starred Gary Merrill, Marc Richman and the beautiful Elizabeth Montgomery.

The episode was directed by Robert Stevens and (of course) Ms. Montgomery went on to star in a famed television show, “Bewitched,” roughly a decade later playing Mrs. Samantha Stephens, a witch married to a mortal.

Next Mannix with another beautiful woman, Joanna Pettet (some kissing with Mike Connors’ “Joe Mannix,” a relative rarity for the impressive private detective) and as a reach, an “enforcer” named Krebs (ode to Steve Kanaly on the seminal television show, “Dallas” —can it be that upcoming November will mark 45 years since the beyond famed, “Who Shot J.R.” episode aired) with another big Texas city, Houston a part of the plot.

Gary Merrill, Bette Davis’ romantic interest in “All About Eve,” and also her “real life” husband when the movie premiered in 1950 and Elizabeth Montgomery are pictured above, in the “Hitch” Presents–“Man With A Problem.”
