We were surprised to find the guest star Wednesday night on "The Patty Duke Show" was Frank Sinatra Jr. Romantic contretemps ensued. I just discovered contretemps is pronounced "KAHN-truh-tahn."

I enjoyed Dorothy Killgallen and the rest of the gang on "What's my Line?" as a child, and have rediscovered this charming game show in my senior years. #whatsmyline #gameshow #gameshows #tvgameshow #tvgameshows #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #JohnDaly #ArleneFrancis #DorothyKilgallen #BennettCerf #panelists #masks #questions #mystery #mysterious #walksoflife #history #entertainment #news #sports #twentiethcentury #nyc

I would pay real money to have been in the boardroom where the notion of moving forward with a television show about a nun who is capable of flight was proposed.

V is a two-part 1983 US alien invasion sci-fi TV mini-series. Flying saucers arrive on Earth. The aliens appear to be friendly. Appearances can be deceptive. The special effects have a very 80s arcade game look. Fairly entertaining.

The 1967-68 UK TV series Man in a Suitcase takes the basic ITC action-adventure formula and adds a hardboiled flavour, real toughness, grittiness, plus seedy downmarket glamour. And more than a hint of film noir. The best of all the ITC series.

Peter Leslie’s The Cornish Pixie Affair, from 1967, the fifth original novel based on the TV spy series The Girl from UNCLE starts with a murder in a circus (a setting that is used extremely well). Statuettes of pixies play a role. Enjoyable.

The Sixth Finger, a 1963 episode of The Outer Limits. A scientist tries to speed up human evolution. He creates a super-intelligent man, who sadly has a few issues. A bold and interesting episode.

Three 1964 episodes of my favourite US anthology series, The Outer Limits. The Invisible Enemy has sand sharks on Mars. It's OK. Wolf 359 is excellent -scientists create a miniature world. I, Robot is quite good - a robot is tried for murder.

The Green Hornet (1966-67) is a TV series which I personally much prefer to its contemporary Batman. Closer in feel to the original 40s serials. Hardboiled crime stories with some gadgets to add spice and just a touch of outrageous adventure.
