Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Mink (1956)
WOW how socially unacceptable is this now!!!!
At the end when Hitchcock describes how rather than diet he is going to exercise instead, he states:
"I'm quite an athlete, you know. I particularly excel in chess, falconry, wife-beating, that sort of thing."
WHOA........WIFE BEATING!!
Nowadays that would have been the end of his career.
The Time Tunnel: Kill Two by Two (1967)
Enjoyable episode with an obvious continuity error
When Doug uses a small crowbar to break into the hut he tosses it on the ground after breaking the lock. He then immediately pushes the door open and walks in. It then cuts to him from the inside where he puts the crowbar down on a box before searching the hut.
Planet of the Apes: The Trap (1974)
Good episode with a strange plot hole.
Fun, enjoyable episode but it has an obvious plot hole....the electricity in the buried subway still works 1000 years later?
Even Pete (James Naughton) expresses his surprise at this incredible phenomenon.
Kolchak: The Night Stalker: They Have Been, They Are, They Will Be... (1974)
Glaring Mistaken World Series Rererence
Early in the episode Kolchak expresses his excitement in going to the first world series game the Cubs have been in in 29 years. Later on listening to the game on the radio we discover its a Red Sox/Cubs World Series.
This episode is from 1974. Although it was true the Cubs hadn't been in the World Series in 29 years (1945), the 1974 the World Series was between the Oakland A's and Los Angeles Dodgers.
Maverick: According to Hoyle (1957)
Continuity Error
Another Great episode.
Funny continuity mistake early on. In the opening sequence Maverick has 3 queens, the King of clubs and ace of diamonds. He loses to her 3 kings....one of which is also the King of clubs.
The Outer Limits: Cold Hands, Warm Heart (1964)
Venus is closer to Earth than Mars?
I know it was the 1950's but I believe we knew the position of the planets in relationship to Earth.....
Early in the episode when Shatner is being interviewed by the press he makes a reference to Venus being closer to earth as preparation for the next step in project Vulcan which is the colonization of Mars.
