(Opening narration)
Alfred Hitchcock: Good evening and thank you for allowing me to come into your living rooms. Well, I'm not easily shocked, but I did expect people to dress a bit more formally before sitting in front of their sets. Now that two way television is here. Apparently, not everyone was aware of the incessant march of progress. The next improvement should be more to your liking. I understand that scientists will soon make it possible for any object thrown at the television screen to actually hit the performer. All of which reminds me of a story.
(edit) (Closing narration)
Alfred Hitchcock: Well, That was a bit of a snapper. wasn't it? The murder on tonight's program was, as usual, completely unrehearsed. In fact, we hadn't planned on having a killing at all. Our story was intended to be about a man found guilty of parking in front of a policeman. But the actors seem to have gotten out of hand. There they go again. a wild, unruly lot, those actors. I hope we have some of them left when we return with our next play, because ah... we'd be some what handicapped without actors. Until then, good night.

Place of ShadowsGood "They did this one already" Although similar in principle to a previous episode, its slight twist still makes it worth watching. Continue » Posted Nov 11, 2005 1:59 pm PST |
