(8327, '0092', 'episode', 'Russell', '', 'I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. This story reminds me of the 136th episode of THE TWILIGHT ZONE from Season 5 entitled "The Self-Improvement Of Salvadore Ross" because both stories are about people who switch their lives with others. That TV episode is based on a story by CBSRMT writer Henry Slesar and I wonder if he ever noticed that his story idea was used by Sam Dann so he could write it for this series. Everything was going smoothly in this story, except the ending. In my opinion, it should''ve ended where our 2 main characters switch spots one last time and "The Forever Man" would cease to exist and finally be labeled as "The Never Man." Anyway, we had a pretty good selection of the cast in this. Paul Hecht (as Jackson Hanley), Bryna Raeburn (as Della, Mrs. Toomey, and the Nurse), William Redfield (as Sergeant Burns and Jerry), Dan Ocko (as Mr. Soames and the Doctor), and Leon Janney (as Leroy Fraser). I enjoyed the actors'' performances, but not so much on our leading actress. Bryna Raeburn played her part as Della as an annoying paranoid troublemaker, Mrs. Toomey as too obedient, and the Nurse hardly had any character development. She has done great work for the series and she deserved better roles than these. There are 3 things that I liked the most in this. FIRST: the music had the right dramatic elements in every Act and it build up the suspense from one scene to the next. SECOND: the sound effects of the rotary phone ringing, the cars honking on busy streets, car engine running, Jazz music playing on the stereo, the doorbell in the apartment, public murmurs at the bank, the car racing and then it crashes, pouring of the brandy, and the body dropped to the floor were all delightful to hear. THIRD: E.G. Marshall''s opening monologue when he said, "Welcome, once again, to the shadow world of mystery and suspense. To a dark and cryptic universe called the Imagination." Now THAT, is what I call a magnificent introduction! And of course, his narrations were entertaining, like when he mentions what money can never buy, can a soul leave a body before the body is dead, learning the Art of Exchange (including the exchange of souls), ask if the soul is transferrable, and the resolution about the soul of Jackson Hanley (that''s inside Leroy Fraser''s body) ends up in a sanitarium. Watch THE TWILIGHT ZONE episode after listening to this mysterious tale and see the similarities. And if you''re Nostalgic on Old Time Radio, listen to this episode with its commercials of Kellogg''s Special-K cereal, Ozark Air Lines, Suburban Savings, Buick Apollo, Goldilocks with her Diet 7-UP, ShopRight, Contact Allergy, Thomas English Muffins (Thomas'' promises), Punt e Mes (Italian aromatized wine), Budweiser, and the CBS News report on Richard Nixon & the Watergate.

He introduces the supernatural in his Prologue, gives out important facts about freezing to death in ACT-1, the dark and ugly truth is about to be revealed in ACT-2, he questions the viewers on how this story should end in ACT-3, and reminds us that a reluctant murderer is exposed by the supernatural in his Epilogue.

(8379, '0026', 'episode', 'Russell', '', ' I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. Here''s what I liked the most about this CBSRMT episode. First, the cast: Mandel Kramer (as Mort Herman), Paul Hecht (as Herb Gordan & the Doctor), Evie Juster (as Sherry Herman & Airport Attendant), Ralph Bell (as the Man & the Hackie/Cabdriver), and Gilbert Mack (as the Police Sergeant). I believe these 5 played their parts terrifically, especially Mandel Kramer who usually plays the guy who''s filled with tension and stresses about future events. My favorite part, coming from him, was at the 40-minute 26-second mark when he said, "It was a nightmare. The bad dream to end all bad dreams. You know the kind? Where you have to escape...but you can only move in slow motion? Your feet are buried in mud like glue? You''re caught. You''re trapped. You''re helpless. You know there''s no way out." Now, how many of us CBSRMT fans have had that feeling before? The sound effects, I liked as well. The sounds of the ambulance, the crowd forming, elevator dinging, alarm clock going off, rotary phone, clinking of the tableware, paper slip, footsteps, the safe cracking (22-Right, 8-Left, 31-Right), the engine running, the boat by the docks, airplane soaring, gunshots, cab driving through traffic, phone ringing, and the water by the pier were all wonderful for this mysterious tale. The music, I enjoyed the most. Even though there were chilling tunes in ACT-1, devious music in ACT-2, and shocking tracks in ACT-3, the best music piece of all was the gloomy & dreary music from the 6-minute 54-second mark that played every time our main character was narrating his deadly situations. Brilliant piece. To our Host, E.G. Marshall, I give him props for quoting a poem by Elizabeth Chase Akers Allen. In ACT-1, he quotes the poem, "Backward, turn backward oh time in thy flight..." and he rephrases it in the Epilogue by switching "thy" with "your". It does work, in a sense, for it allows us listeners to ponder on how we wish to go back and do it all over again. And if we could go back for a second chance, would our lives turn out just the same? The only thing that bugged me, was at the end of ACT-3 when our host described our main character as "a weak little man, a scared little man, and a stupid little man." I disagree because he was more of a troubled man, a paranoid man, and a fluke of a man. And finally, the script. Ian Martin wrote an entertaining story, something that people can relate to when it comes to getting a second chance and wishing for things we should''ve done in the past. But why would our main character, Mort Herman, go back to yesterday? Why not go back further to the day he met Sherry and/or Herb Gordon and just avoid them? Also, who or what was Ralph Bell''s character? In the CBSRMT Guide Book, his role is "The Man". But was he really the Grim Reaper or just the Devil making a deal? It''s a good story, with a few mysteries unknown. Another way to title this episode would be "Agent Of Fate." Check this episode out, everyone. Not only you should tune in for this mysterious tale, but also tune in for its commercials of Himan Brown (and the address to Mystery Theater, Box 5152, Radio City Station, New York, 10019), Suburban Savings, Budweiser, Shop Right, Kellogg''s Special-K cereal, Agent X39, Jon Winget for the Winget News Digest, a sneak preview & synopsis of Ep. #0027-DEAD RINGER, and radio announcement by Patricia McCann.

John Beal (as Ed Harvey), Teri Keane (as Mary Harvey), Evie Juster (as Angie Harvey Gorman & Gloria Harmony), and Ian Martin (as Tom Gorman & the Doctor). At one point, there''s a character named Claude Frisby and I think it was Himan Brown who played that part. John Beal & Teri Keane were outstanding as Mr. & Mrs. Harvey because their voices made their characters believable. So much affection, so much sensitivity, so much compassion to each other as if John Beal & Teri Keane weren''t acting any more and began to have feelings for each other. The sound effects of the jazz music in the background, the clapping from the other dancers, dancers murmuring, salsa music playing in the background, busy streets during traffic, the car screeching followed by the crashing with the truck, hospital waiting room, birds chirping while the water''s streaming in the park, the waltz music in the background, paper bag for the chinese food, door knob, and the phone ringing were all appealing for this tale. But the music, flawless! Other than the tunes of jazz, salsa, and the waltz, there were a variety of tunes that brought the feel of tenderness, agony, and ecstasy. In other words, sensual tunes in ACT-1, horrid tunes in ACT-2, and blissfulness tunes in ACT-3. Earth, Inferno, then Paradise. Now, for E.G. Marshall. Our host discussed in the old days where we had Taxi Dance Halls, a place where a guy could dance with a girl during a song for only ten cents. Now, that''s Nostalgic! Then he explains how Death is an ally & adversary. After that, he talks about Doctors & Nurses that help the human body, but what about the human spirit? Then in the final Act, he explained that this wasn''t just a Drama-Mystery or a Fantasy Mystery. It was a Romantic-Mystery where love transcend death. What concerns me, is his Epilogue where he said that he believed that love conquers all, which is very odd to say since E.G. Marshall was married 3 times: Helen Wolf (divorced her in 1953), Emy de Haze Winkelman (nobody knows how long they were married), and Judith Coy (married to her until he died on August 24th, 1998). And as for Ian Martin''s script, a few puzzling elements. For starters, the 2 main characters said (at the 10-minute 6-second mark) that they''ve been together for 45 years and they''ve known each other since 1946. And this CBSRMT episode took place in 1981 when it aired. 1981 MINUS 45 years EQUALS 1936! So, Ian Martin screwed up on the dates. Second, the characters said this address: 625 West 69th Street. I wonder how many CBSRMT fans have checked out that part of New York City because it lies between Central Park & the Hudson River. And thirdly, I find the ending too predictable. Usually, we get shocking twists or something ironic happening in the final Act. But this is one of those stories where it all worked out like a happy Hollywood ending. Ian Martin''s writing of the characters and plot points were good. But the resolution needed more suspense to it. It is an amusing love story though, just as good as Ep. #1115-LEAVE WELL ENOUGH ALONE and Ep. #1035-THE SPECTER BRIDEGROOM. Enjoy!

However, the stations were required to run a certain number of public service announcements by the FCC. It was up to the individual stations which ads they ran. So the ads they picked do show some enlightened thinking. Ad agencies too, would produce these for free to garner favor with the station managers, but the subjects they chose were up to them.

The original title of it is called "A Retrieved Reformation." Same characters, same plot points, same twisted ending. Job well done! For the music and sound effects, not so well. The sound effects of the letter opening, piano playing in the saloon, hotel bell, birds chirping, townspeople murmuring in the bank, drilling the safe, turning the knob, clicking of the safe, and the horses neighing at the buggy were fine, but there wasn''t enough for each Act. At the 33-minute 54-second mark, there''s an unusual clanking sound and it''s a total mystery as to what it is. In ACT-1, there was music that had a humble theme to it. At the 15-minute 10-second mark, it sounded like there was going to be a comical situation coming up. But in ACT-2, there was music with a theme of sudden changes, including love. That''s when the music got a little bit better when they added romantic tracks in ACT-3. Not passionate, but suitable. As for E.G. Marshall, his job as Host was good, but his narrations, I think, weren''t in the right places. In his Prologue, he asks if people can really change their destiny. In ACT-1, not only he mentions that O. Henry''s original name was William Sydney Porter, but also mentions that no one was alien to the man, which made it easier for him to write stories for so many years. In ACT-2, he asks what is a man''s essential nature? In ACT-3, he explains that some people have a change of heart/plan/life in the middle of their careers when things don''t go accordingly. Then in his Epilogue, he briefly mentions that O. Henry was in prison for 3 years for embezzlement at the bank he worked at in Texas and ends the CBSRMT episode right there. I think his Prologue & Epilogue should''ve switched because the beginning would present what kind of a Writer we''re dealing with and the ending has to finish with a good remark on what we have learned from this tale. But more importantly, the cast members in this were outstanding and entertaining. Robert Dryden (as O. Henry & Mr. Powell), Paul Hecht (as Jimmy Valentine A.K.A. Ralph D. Spencer), Catherine Byers (as Annabel Adams & Magnolia Mercy), Court Benson (as Rudolph Adams & Mike Dolan), and Ken Harvey (as Detective Ben Price).

Only, instead of one human talking to a ghost, there are three humans. What started out as a peculiar love triangle, but then ended with a pleasant twist. Excellent work, Elspeth Eric! And speaking of excellence, I''d give a round of applause to our cast: Beatrice Straight (as Alice Emory: the widow), Paula Trueman (as Connie Lawrence: the friend), Joan Loring (as Dorothea: the maid), and John Baragrey (as Charles Emory: the ghost). Each of these actors brought their characters to life with their chirpiness, wittiness, zaniness, and quirkiness. At the 40-minute mark when Dorothea says to the ghost, "Do you mind if I call you...''Chuck'' ?", you can hear how Joan Loring''s voice was so heartfelt and tender. The sound effects of the footsteps, clock dinging, birds chirping, rotary phone ringing, wine glasses clinking, bottle of wine pouring, and moving furniture were all the necessary bits for this "ghastly" tale. There were bumbling, yet comical tracks in ACT-1, amiable tunes in ACT-2, and mystique themes in ACT-3. E.G. Marshall was on point with his narrations. In his Prologue, he states that seeing isn''t believing, but believing IS believing. In ACT-1, he quotes English Playwright John Dryden of 1679 by saying, "With how much ease believe we what we wish." Then he quotes Roman Emperor Julius Caesar by saying, "Men freely believe that which they desire." Both quotes: Notable. In ACT-2, he explains that this love triangle has an apex, meaning the ghost IS the apex. At the end of ACT-3, he wishes the best of luck to all of these characters, which is a fine climax, but there''s no resolution. There was no Epilogue! Everything in this CBSRMT episode was terrific except for that one missing part. Other than that, this was an amusing story.

(8515, '0253', 'episode', 'Russell', '', ' I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. This story is very similar to Ep. #0698-THE RETURN OF POMPEII where the main character loses their significant other, the widowed person travels to another country that has a history of ancient civilization, and goes through a time warp that brings them to that particular time period right before it gets buried in lava and ashes. Another way to title this CBSRMT episode would be "Echoes of the Past". I give credit to Ian Martin for writing a Fantasy-Mystery involving time warp; however, my question is why would the main character''s daughter be the reincarnation of an Aztec Princess? The professor travels to Mexico, to bury his grief on the death of his wife, as he studies deeply on the Aztecs. When he goes back in time and sees the ancient settlement where the Aztecs need to sacrifice the princess to please their Rain God: Tlaloc, wouldn''t it make more sense if the princess was the resemblance of his dead wife so he can see her one last time before departing? I digress. But anyway, E.G. Marshall''s role as the Narrator was very informative, yet questionable. In his Prologue, he explains how the Aztecs lived in the 1575 A.D. (or as the Aztec Calendar labels it as the 9th Cycle, 7 Rabbit, 2 Crocodile). In ACT-1, he asks us fans is there a legend, created by superstition, to protect a mountain shoreline. In ACT-2, the main characters ignore the legendary warning and pursue their journey. Then, he asks us if we believe the girl in this tale is the reincarnation of ancient princess who can speak Nahuatl: the Aztec language. In ACT-3 he asks us again if the character''s journey was real or just an illusion. Finally, in his Epilogue, he explains that there are excavations of the Aztec settlement still and informs us about the professor''s daughter got married, but he left it at that. Informative on the Aztecs, but questionable at the end of each act. The sound effects of the automobile, the tires blew out, the car brakes, birds chirping, seagulls and howling wind by the water, the boat motor, animals in the forest, the thunder storm, tarp rustling, the shovels, a flash of lightning, igniting a cigarette lighter, the rainstorm, lighting a match, opening the great stone, wind blowing, slapping the professor in the face, motor of the bulldozer with a crane, intense drum beats, lightning bolts with a volcanic eruption, and moving the piles of stones were spot! And so was the music. In ACT-1 there was this theme of serenity at the 10-minute 55-second mark that I enjoyed, along with the mysterious beats at the 14-minute mark, suspenseful tunes all through ACT-2, and epic tracks in ACT-3 with a stunning climax at the 39-minute 51-second mark. Speaking of epic, excellent work from our cast: (Fred Gwynne (as Professor J. Hallington Wells), Jennifer Harmon (as Maria Wells), Mason Adams (as Bill Hallam), and Ian Martin (as the Alcade). My favorite part was the actress''s speech at the 38-minute 20-second mark when she said, "All things on Earth have their term. And in the most joist career of their vanity and splendor, their strength fails and they sink into the dust. The things of yesterday are no more today. And the things of yesterday shall cease perhaps on the morrow. Let us cast aside the horrors of the tomb and reach only for the brilliance of the sun. The shadows cast of death bring the stars no brilliance. Let us, everyone, seek and make his own future and his own heaven. No one else can make it for you." It seems as if Ian Martin wrote that speech in the story for the CBSRMT fans that we must acknowledge the fact that every subject will come and go, so we must use time wisely and make the most of what we have and leave our mark onto this world. Everyone should tune in to this episode, especially if you enjoy time warp tales and the talent of Fred Gwynne. Enjoy!

(8516, '0751', 'episode', 'Russell', '', ' I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. This story ranks up to Alfred Hitchcock good. Sam Dann wrote a dynamic Romantic-Mystery story. Here we have a girl living in the 1910''s who loves an astronomer, but her father believes she''ll be better off being married to a boring gentleman that will be financially stable. The father puts the 2 men to the test and takes them on an expedition to the Arctic. Her father freezes to death. The 2 men return home, along with the dead man''s diary that reads his decision on who should marry the girl. She marries the astronomer. At first she was happy about it, but things have changed for the worse. More importantly, the rejected guy reveals the ugly truth to her about what was written in the diary. One of the BEST surprising endings I''ve ever heard! Unfortunately, the last few minutes of this story was cut off, so no one knows what the resolution was. We have a climax, but no resolution. The cast was dynamic as well: Fred Gwynne (as J.J. Trelawney), Marian Haley (as Marcella Trelawney), Earl Hammond (as William Stillwell & the Reporter) and Lloyd Battista (as Edward Wilson: the Astronomer). I loved Fred Gwynne''s line at the 19-minute mark when he uses the old phrase, "Cut the mustard" which means "to perform well" or "to meet expectations" because his character & Earl Hammond''s character are battling against the girl & the astronomer. One sees Marriage as a business, but never sees love as a benefit. One would see love as something that feeds the soul, but another would see love as something that doesn''t feed the stomach. THE CYNICAL vs. THE SPIRITUAL. The sound effects of the door knocking, violin playing at the concert at Carnegie Hall, patrons murmuring, tableware clinking, classical music playing, seagulls, a buoy, music band playing by the docks, unfolding the letter, and the howling wind in the Arctic were spot on. That goes the same with the music. There were compromising tracks in ACT-1, agonizing themes in ACT-2, and sinister tunes in ACT-3 that was building the mystery up. And finally, our Host with his dynamic contribution. In his prologue, he quotes Walt Whitman who said, "I am mortis''d and tenon''d in granite. And I know the amplitudes of time." In ACT-1, he draws you in to where this story takes place: 1912 where men lived like kings, his word was Law, and marriage was a plan to strengthen one''s position to expand families & territories. In ACT-2, he states that love is for the poets, the dreamers, and the romantics, which is referring to 2 of our characters. He also states that sensible intelligent people never fall in love, but they deal with a lot of grief, which is referring to the other 2 characters. In ACT-3, he gets the fans to pause for a moment as to why & whom do we marry? Is it for attractiveness, to be rich, to please our in-laws, or for romantic love? A mystery we can only solve on our own. As I mentioned before, the last few minutes of this CBSRMT episode has been cut off. If we knew what E.G. Marshall''s words were at the end of ACT-3 & the Epilogue, I would''ve given this 5 out of 5 stars. Oh, well. But still, it''s a terrific story that I recommend, especially if you''re a fan of Fred Gwynne and enjoy surprising endings.

Only, instead of one human talking to a ghost, there are three humans. What started out as a peculiar love triangle, but then ended with a pleasant twist. Excellent work, Elspeth Eric! And speaking of excellence, I''d give a round of applause to our cast: Beatrice Straight (as Alice Emory: the widow), Paula Trueman (as Connie Lawrence: the friend), Joan Loring (as Dorothea: the maid), and John Baragrey (as Charles Emory: the ghost). Each of these actors brought their characters to life with their chirpiness, wittiness, zaniness, and quirkiness. At the 40-minute mark when Dorothea says to the ghost, "Do you mind if I call you...''Chuck'' ?", you can hear how Joan Loring''s voice was so heartfelt and tender. The sound effects of the footsteps, clock dinging, birds chirping, rotary phone ringing, wine glasses clinking, bottle of wine pouring, and moving furniture were all the necessary bits for this "ghastly" tale. There were bumbling, yet comical tracks in ACT-1, amiable tunes in ACT-2, and mystique themes in ACT-3. E.G. Marshall was on point with his narrations. In his Prologue, he states that seeing isn''t believing, but believing IS believing. In ACT-1, he quotes English Playwright John Dryden of 1679 by saying, "With how much ease believe we what we wish." Then he quotes Roman Emperor Julius Caesar by saying, "Men freely believe that which they desire." Both quotes: Notable. In ACT-2, he explains that this love triangle has an apex, meaning the ghost IS the apex. At the end of ACT-3, he wishes the best of luck to all of these characters, which is a fine climax, but there''s no resolution. There was no Epilogue! Everything in this CBSRMT episode was terrific except for that one missing part. Other than that, this was an amusing story.

(8525, '1165', 'episode', 'Russell', '', ' I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. I''d like to start off by saying bravo to this great cast! John Beal (as Ed Harvey), Teri Keane (as Mary Harvey), Evie Juster (as Angie Harvey Gorman & Gloria Harmony), and Ian Martin (as Tom Gorman & the Doctor). At one point, there''s a character named Claude Frisby and I think it was Himan Brown who played that part. John Beal & Teri Keane were outstanding as Mr. & Mrs. Harvey because their voices made their characters believable. So much affection, so much sensitivity, so much compassion to each other as if John Beal & Teri Keane weren''t acting any more and began to have feelings for each other. The sound effects of the jazz music in the background, the clapping from the other dancers, dancers murmuring, salsa music playing in the background, busy streets during traffic, the car screeching followed by the crashing with the truck, hospital waiting room, birds chirping while the water''s streaming in the park, the waltz music in the background, paper bag for the chinese food, door knob, and the phone ringing were all appealing for this tale. But the music, flawless! Other than the tunes of jazz, salsa, and the waltz, there were a variety of tunes that brought the feel of tenderness, agony, and ecstasy. In other words, sensual tunes in ACT-1, horrid tunes in ACT-2, and blissfulness tunes in ACT-3. Earth, Inferno, then Paradise. Now, for E.G. Marshall. Our host discussed in the old days where we had Taxi Dance Halls, a place where a guy could dance with a girl during a song for only ten cents. Now, that''s Nostalgic! Then he explains how Death is an ally & adversary. After that, he talks about Doctors & Nurses that help the human body, but what about the human spirit? Then in the final Act, he explained that this wasn''t just a Drama-Mystery or a Fantasy Mystery. It was a Romantic-Mystery where love transcend death. What concerns me, is his Epilogue where he said that he believed that love conquers all, which is very odd to say since E.G. Marshall was married 3 times: Helen Wolf (divorced her in 1953), Emy de Haze Winkelman (nobody knows how long they were married), and Judith Coy (married to her until he died on August 24th, 1998). And as for Ian Martin''s script, a few puzzling elements. For starters, the 2 main characters said (at the 10-minute 6-second mark) that they''ve been together for 45 years and they''ve known each other since 1946. And this CBSRMT episode took place in 1981 when it aired. 1981 MINUS 45 years EQUALS 1936! So, Ian Martin screwed up on the dates. Second, the characters said this address: 625 West 69th Street. I wonder how many CBSRMT fans have checked out that part of New York City because it lies between Central Park & the Hudson River. And thirdly, I find the ending too predictable. Usually, we get shocking twists or something ironic happening in the final Act. But this is one of those stories where it all worked out like a happy Hollywood ending. Ian Martin''s writing of the characters and plot points were good. But the resolution needed more suspense to it. It is an amusing love story though, just as good as Ep. #1115-LEAVE WELL ENOUGH ALONE and Ep. #1035-THE SPECTER BRIDEGROOM.

I''d would give props to Sam Dann for thinking creatively for writing mystery stories, but this CBSRMT episode seems far-fetched. It''s not the worst, but it''s not the greatest either. It was clever for using the word "mosca" as the villians'' last name because "mosca" is the Latin word for "fly." Tammy Grimes made her contribution as the Hostess in this tale, but not as good as E.G. Marshall did. In her Prologue, she explains that we win some, we lose some, but it doesn''t quite build up the suspense. In ACT-1, she introduces our 2 main characters and left it at that. Then in ACT-2, not enough suspense or mystery to go around. Then in ACT-3, she asks us fans what really happened to our minor characters. The only good thing I did like, was her Epilogue about venturing out to the unknown, which makes sense, since we do venture into this great radio series and tune in whenever we can for another mystery. The sound effects of the rush hour traffic on 5th & Jefferson, flipping pages of newspaper ads, door knocking, flies buzzing loudly, engine motor running, the soothing music playing in the Moscas home, and the fly swatter were effective in this tale. SPECIAL NOTE: at the 39-minute 4-second mark, there''s a painful static, so cover your ears. There were dramatic melodies in ACT-1, sinister & eerie tracks in ACT-2, and chilling tunes in ACT-3, so the music was effective as well. Fred Gwynne (as Lou Valentine), Evie Juster (as Lil Valentine & Mrs. Mosca), and Bernard Grant (as Mr. Mosca & Benny The Writer) were all satisfactory in this. These 3 have done tremendous work on other episodes before, but for a story such as this, these 3 deserve a better mystery. The Acting, Music, and Sound Effects: GOOD.

Murray Burnett wrote an entertaining adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle''s classic story. However, he changed a couple of parts. For starters, this story is set in December 1889, but the CBSRMT writer wrote this tale to take place in December 1893. Also, if you''ve read the story before, one of the characters is named Henry Baker. But in this CBSRMT episode, the last name is changed to Baker. Why Murray Burnett made those changes, is a Mystery we may never know. The music had the right mysterious tunes. It starts out as cheery in ACT-1, curiouser melodies in ACT-2, and ends with Christmas music at the end of ACT-3. There was a lot music, but enough sound effects. There were doors opening, footsteps, small crowd at the location of Covet Garden, book pages flipping, dog barking, wind blowing, unlocking a door chain, and some grunting. But more importantly, was the Host & Cast. E.G. Marshall masterly gets your attention from the Prologue to the Epilogue. First he describes the location of 221 B. Baker Street, quotes a famous nursery rhyme that goes, "John, John, the grey goose is gone and the fox is off to to his den" which fits perfectly in this mysterious tale, then he mentions Charles Dickens and his work, and ends it with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle''s other writings besides Sherlock Holmes. And as for our cast, I was very impressed by the talents of Kevin McCarthy (as Sherlock Holmes), Court Benson (as Dr. John H.

(8532, '1092', 'episode', 'Russell', '', ' I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. I''d like to point out that this CBSRMT episode was actually written by G. Frederick Lewis, not Sam Dann. E.G. Marshall said Lewis'' name in the recording, plus Lewis'' name is written in the CBSRMT Episode Guide Book. Anyway, this was an interesting Drama-Mystery with Christmas in the mix. You got wily plot points & deep character development in every act. However, the resolution wasn''t as good as the climax. There''s a surprising ending, but it finished way too quickly. The sound effects of the motor running, cars honking, buzzer, breakfast try, the body falling down the stairs at the 16-minute 54-second mark, birds chirping, film crew talking in the background, howling wind, gun blasting, phone ringing, automobile stuck in the snow drift, and the clicking of the handcuffs were suited for this tale. The music had a compassionate feel to it, along with the feel of resentment, but it would''ve been great if there were Christmas tunes/jingles in the background since it is a Christmas episode. E.G. Marshall was dead on in his narration. He explains what a self-made man is in his Prologue, he introduces the topics of money, murder, jealousy, and crime in ACT-1, he compares our main characters to Queen Catherine & Henry VIII in ACT-2, he explains how people can take the Law in their own hands in ACT-3, and explains how people are motivated to kill, whether it''s for hate or love in his Epilogue. And speaking of love, I was enthralled by the voice of Marian Seldes (as Annalee Samson). The way she portrayed her character with a voice of a "fellow feeling" got me hooked. Kristoffer Tabori (as Ronald Samson) and Ray Owens (as Dr. Eli Shawn & Berdie) played characters that were likable and Michael Tolan (as Ted Samson & Dave Perkins) played the main villain as dreadful as you can imagine. Bravo to our Host and to our cast. This Christmas episode may not be as excellent as Ep. #0402-A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Ep. #0191-A VERY PRIVATE MIRACLE, Ep. #1140-A HOLIDAY VISIT, or Ep. #0688-THE ADVENTURE OF THE BLUE CARBUNCLE, but it is entertaining for the Holiday Season.

The wife is smart, beautiful, and talented and the guy''s ego gets the better of him to commit murder. In this Fantasy-Mystery, the ghost of the deceased wife continues to help him. I think the story would''ve worked best if the female ghost told the story from her perspective and she explains on how she handles her jealous husband and the tile of the CBSRMT episode would be called "The Bitter Half." The cast is excellent in this one: Tony Roberts (as Bobby Boyle), Patricia Elliot (as Jeannie Frye), Fred Gwynne (as Jack Martin & Sergeant Mullins), and Veleka Gray (as Linda & Lieutenant Diana Pollock). Even though Fred Gwynne & Veleka Gray weren''t the main actors, they were still a delight to hear. Tony Roberts & Patricia Elliot playing as polar opposites in a relationship was a gem. The music had constructive feel to build up the mystery. At the 8-minute 27-seocnd mark, there was this peaceful/serenity guitar tunes that were different from all of the mystery tunes that we''ve heard over the years. ACT-2 had music that brought up the suspense for the main character to remove any loose ends. ACT-3 had suspenseful tracks as well. ACT-1 had sound effects of tableware clinking, the settings of a diner, rotary phone, the piano playing at the restaurant, the automatic gun being fired. In ACT-2, there were sounds of the car running, the brakes and a boat in the back ground. Then in ACT-3, all you can hear is a door closing and lounge music. A lot of music, but not enough of the sound effects. As for our Host, great intro & outro from every act. In his Prologue, E. G. Marshall brings up the topic of Consciousness Raising; to focus the attention of a wider group of people for a cause. It makes sense to bring this up because it raises awareness for our main character of what changes he''s going to go through. In ACT-1, our Host gets straight to point; a woman with beauty & brains married to a guy with an unhappy ego; where an average person can have a breaking point. In ACT-2, our Host talks about the old days where guys use to be secure with their dominance and "The Better Half" saying came around. In ACT-3, he quotes Henry D Thoreau by saying, "Our life is fritted away by details." Then he quotes Thomas Carlyle who said, "Genius is the capacity for taking infinite plains." In the end, he asks us fans what moves people: Sex? Hunger? Pride of Authorship? Another mystery we must solve on our own. At the Epilogue, he mentions the PYGMALION story; which is a good because what we''ve learned from this is that we cannot change people into something else. E.G. Marshall quoted the "Let sleeping dogs lie," but it wasn''t Dickens who said it. It was Robert Walpole. Anyway, tune in to this mystery tale, everybody.

Sidney Sloan wrote a good Drama-Mystery where the suspense was building up in ACT-1 and in ACT-2, but not in ACT-3 though. There was character development and intriguing plot points, only the climax & resolution were both predictable. I enjoy a good mystery with a surprise ending or even a plot twist, but the happy ending was predictable. Tammy Grimes was okay; so-so as Host. In her Prologue, she mentions that people have the need for recognition, but mentioning war lords and fiendish killers of history as examples? In ACT-1, she introduces us to our main character and leaves it at that. In ACT-2, our hero gets mixed up in the plot, but wants to see it through. In ACT-3, she informs us that it''s the night before the day of the crime. Then later, she narrates the resolution, followed by her Epilogue where there''s a happy ending involving recognition. It seems to me that Tammy Grimes spent more time on explaining the story instead of adding suspense to the mix. When E.G. Marshall was the host, he would start the CBSRMT episodes off by saying, "Welcome to the sound of suspense. The fear…you can hear." Or even, "Welcome once again to another adventurous journey across the mysterious and terrified terrain of the human imagination" (and that''s from Ep. #0111-YESTERDAY''S MURDER). Tammy Grimes didn''t use those words at all! We had a good cast in this: Fred Gwynne (as Bert Gilbert), Teri Keane (as Helen Gilbert), Lloyd Battista (as Mike Culligan), and Robert Kaliban (as Harry Blass). Their characters were likeable, but not lovable. What I liked the most were the sound effects & music. The sounds of tableware clinking, letter opening, rotary phone, the pay phone being dialed on a busy street, clock ticking followed by the bell tolls, music at the pub, doorbell buzzing, car engine running, jazz music in the background, police sirens near the crime scene, footsteps, and the echoing of a gun being fired were effective. The music in ACT-1 made the story go from average day to moments of suspense and tension. In ACT-2, there was this serene/mellow track at the 22-minute 57-second mark that soothed the mystery down and that was effective as well. In ACT-3 at the 32-minute 16-second mark, there was this suspenseful tune mixed with disco or some sort. Different, but useful. And then they go back to the classic mysterious tunes to finish the story off. For all those fans of Fred Gwynne, check this episode out.

The premise is intriguing, that a POW was tormented and brainwashed to such a degree that he lost his personality and self, and is programmed in some way. He begins killing at random which I must say, must not be what was intended by his captors- they must have had some intent to who he was supposed to kill, and maybe he had done some targeted killings for them, and when his usefulness was over, they let him go, which left him like a malfunctioning robot, in my opinion. Everyone wonders why he went back to the fortune teller at the end after meeting with his wife. I believe that after meeting with his wife, he regained his "self" to some degree and was mortified when his wife told him he was wanted for murders. Now 3 options: \r\n1. the Woman, Mrs Morsley who wanted contact with her dead son WAS his mother (remember his appearance was drastically altered both by the POW experience and by the Fortune Teller, AND his mother probably had remarried at some point so her last name wouldn''t be the same as his- and she called him Ken and they called him Kent which also might have been what a Mom would call her son, a shortened name), and he realized it was his Mom after meeting with his wife and starting to remember his past. OR\r\n2. He did not know the woman and she was a stranger he at the end wanted to help reach her son as a way to redeem his soul, and his unique hypnosis tendencies allowed him to reach supernaturally to the dead son - the acting in the last seance scene was FANTASTIC. OR \r\n3. He remembered after seeing his wife and regaining memory that he knew the Pilot who was the dead son of the woman, that that Pilot was a Buddy who after the pilot buddy died, he took the bracelet to give to his buddy''s mother, and had it with him all that time. Perhaps the Pilot had made him promise to give the bracelet to his mother if anything happened to him, and by a cosmic miracle, he realized at the end that this was his buddies Mother. \r\nRemember that a crucial moment was when he met his wife, that was when he regained his sense of himself. That scene was very short, sadly, so we never get to hear all that he tells her, or what she tells him. Also, I think the reason he died is that the Captors must have given him a way to "self destruct" to die,  if caught when they were using him for their needs as an executioner to kill their enemies when he was under their control. So I think he knew he would want to die when he realized all the murder he had done but he wanted to do that one final good deed....', '2015-03-29 07:15:03', 1, '6a2fcb6e12a4c1bdf7ab9e560e4b9564', '96.26.32.230'),

(8703, '1334', 'episode', 'Russell', '', 'I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. Murray Burnett wrote one of the best mystery stories involving the game of chess. The suspenseful plot points, the surprising climax and the resolution were on the mark. There wasn''t a lot of character development for our minor characters, but a lot for our protagonist & antagonist. Another way to title this mystery tale would be "The Pawn" or "What Is Your Game, Mr. Chessman?" The music, I like. There were many tracks that built the suspense and increased the tension as the story progressed. The sound effects, however, not so much. There were the sounds of daily traffic in New York (which is where the story takes place), people murmuring in the lobby, the sounds of chess pieces being moved, an envelope, the dialing of a rotary phone, and a tiny clink sound of the washroom key. It would''ve been enticing if the music was played in the middle of the scenes instead of playing them to change the scenes. For example, in Ep. 1245-THE JUDGE''S HOUSE, there was horror music playing in the middle of a scene in ACT-3 that moved the story up on another level. If they played the suspenseful tunes in the middle of this story, it would''ve brought chills and goose bumps to the listeners. I enjoyed Tammy Grimes'' narrations as the Host. In her Prologue, she points out how chess made an impact in ancient times and it still does today. In ACT-2, she explains how people can change instantly whether they''re in a crisis or something new comes around in their lifestyle. In ACT-2, she changed the William Shakespeare quote to, "All the world''s a chess board." It worked in a way, since there are some who are treated like pawns in a gigantic power struggle. Then, she explains how people are like ostriches where we, metaphorically speaking, stick our heads in the ground to ignore the things we don''t want to see/hear. In ACT-3, she makes a historical reference to Robert James "Bobby" Fischer who defeated Boris Spassky at the 1972 World Chess Championship. Her Epilogue was the most interesting part because she points out that there were no women''s rights in the 6th Century of Persia where chess was played, but there was a thing called "Women''s lib" back then. And that is linked to chess because the Queen is the most powerful piece in the game and the King is barely useful.

In his Prologue, he starts off with the Latin quote: “Quis custodiet ipsos custodiesâ€ meaning “Who will guard the guardians themselvesâ€ which refers to the problem of controlling the actions of people in their positions of power. In ACT-1, he opens the story up in Springfield, Illinois in 1837. Then he quotes Henry Wadsworth Longfellow who said, “Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time.â€ Which makes sense in this case since Lincoln had left his mark in the town before leaving his mark as the 16th President. In ACT-2, he mentions Lincoln finding key evidence. In ACT-3, E.G. Marshall discusses psychology on understanding implications, plus using phrases like the split personality, the other self, and the protective falsehood. And the result at the end: Hung Jury. In his Epilogue, the four minor characters in this story were small fractions that molded our main character that would become something great later in his life. Perhaps E.G. Marshall was clueing us in on how people, from all walks of life, can mold us into something in our futures. Until next time…pleasant dreams.&nbsp;', '2015-04-12 02:09:09', 1, '0ad32cc962e00284216178f285147778', '175.107.7.136'),

Many have heard stories about Abraham Lincoln & John Wilkes Booth, but how many knew about the conspirators, especially the one that got away? Not only this is a story about a man who ran away from authorities, but he was also running from himself. Another way to Title this is, “The Sole Conspirator.â€ The music had the right tunes to make this suspenseful. Themes of paranoia in ACT-1, themes of guilt in ACT-2, and the haunting themes of getting closer to death in ACT-3. The sound effects of the train, the conductor’s smack, body fainted, slaps, newspaper, birds chirping, gun fire, seagulls and the buoy by the docks, the boats, the marching of soldiers, keys rattling, leg chains rattling, rifles firing, farm animals, and the judge’s gavel were all essential to feel like you were there on this man’s hunt for survival. Tammy Grimes as Host was good, but not suspenseful good. In her Prologue, she brings up the subject on what people believe in, what people risk, and who do people murder. Then switches over to discuss our main character. In ACT-1, she informs us on what people did to mourn the death of Lincoln while 8 conspirators were accused. 4 were executed, 4 were sentenced to life, 3 were pardoned, and 1 escaped. In ACT-2, the manhunt continues, but the recording of her dialogue gets cut off at the end of the Act. In ACT-3, she tells us that John Wilkes Booth is alive, but his spirit lives inside the main character’s head. Then, she talks about the “seeds of betrayalâ€ at the end of the Act, but doesn’t inform us about the details of the mistrial. Her Epilogue would’ve been great if she informed us on the man’s life after these events because John Harrison Surratt, Jr. got to live for 72 years and died in 1916. The cast in this were excellent. Tony Roberts (as John Harrison Surratt, Jr.), Robert Kaliban (as Henri Beaumont de Sainte-Marie), Robert Dryden (as the Conductor, the Waiter, the Bartender, and the Captain), and Gordon Gould (as John Wilkes Booth & Dr. McMillan).

Not as riveting as his writing for Ep. #1351-THE INNOCENT MURDERER, but still a good Drama-Mystery. The sound effects of the gavel, the general crowd noise in the courtroom, the teapot, papers, the 12mm pin fire pistol, deck of cards, the crickets by the fairgrounds, the gun shot of the pistol, murmuring of the crowd, the footsteps, door being knocked, the Almanac, and the document papers were all splendid to hear. The music was splendid as well, especially when you have themes of dramatic conflicts, puzzling encounters, and mysterious questionings. I hate to say this part, but Tammy Grimes did an awful job as Host. In her Prologue, she talked about who Abraham Lincoln was before he was ever President and then she mentions that this story was adapted by Edward Edison. Has anybody heard of an Edward Edison before? In ACT-1, the story begins in the 1850’s of Illinois. But at the end of this Act, she mistakenly said that she’ll be back for ACT-3. In ACT-2, the story continues on what happened on that night during the card game. Later, she mentions a biographer named Ida Tarbell who documented Abraham Lincoln and his cases. Once again, Tammy Grimes messed up by saying she’ll be back for ACT-2. In ACT-3, she breaks the 4th Wall to interrupt the story!?! Now, when E.G. Marshall was Host and he broke the 4th Wall in Ep. #0420-THE SLICK AND THE DEAD, that was perfectly okay because it was a “Who Done Itâ€ mystery. E.G. Marshall wanted to draw the CBSRMT fans into the story. But Tammy Grimes interrupted this particular episode just so she can talk about herself as an actress and mention actors like Joseph Jefferson who met Abraham Lincoln. In her Epilogue, she quotes Abraham Lincoln about the increasing disregard for the Law and left it at that. She said the wrong numbers for the Acts and jumped right in the middle of ACT-3, out of the blue, like she couldn’t wait to speak again. After listening to this episode, I said to myself, "Where is E.G. Marshall when you need him?!?" But I’ll end this review on a good note. The cast members were terrific because they played many parts in this. Lloyd Battista (as Abraham Lincoln & George Lockwood), Patricia Elliot (as Lily Grayson), Robert Dryden (as the Sheriff & David Sovine), and Gordon Gould (as Tom Grayson & Bill Herndon).

(8864, '0048', 'episode', 'Russell', '', 'I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. Ian Martin wrote a tasteful Fantasy-Mystery where people escape to the unknown in outer space. Good plot points, main characters were well defined, climax was surprising, but the resolution-not so much. I wonder if CBSRMT writer Victoria Dann was inspired by Ian Martin''s story, because in 1977, she wrote Ep. #0644-FIRST WOMAN IN SPACE. Both of these stories are about the first females that traveled to outer pace, but with different outcomes. Parts of this particular episode, by Ian Martin, reminds me of 2 episodes of the TWILGHT ZONE: “People Are Alike All Over (Ep.25)â€ and “Valley Of The Shadow (Ep.105).â€ It seemed like the ending of this Sci-Fi story was a cautionary tale for the characters and for the human race. Other than that, E.G. Marshall was getting better as the Host in this 1st Season of the radio series. In his Prologue, he starts off by saying his classic line: “Welcome to the world of terrifying imagination. The fear…you can hear.â€ Then, he brings us into ACT-1 about the first American woman astronaut to aboard the DIANA ONE ship, but problems arise. Not just for the ground crew, but the paranoid emotions of our main character. At the end of that Act, he asks us if we could imagine being lost in outer space with no communication whatsoever (then the recording gets cut off). In ACT-2 the DIANA ONE ship has circled the Earth, but still no communication. At the end of that Act, suspense builds up when he asks what will our 3 astronauts find if they open the mysterious door. In ACT-3, this is where it gets deep when our Host asks, “Is there any threat worse to sanity than the Unknown?â€ Not only that, but he asks us fans what is there believe out there in outer space. Everything E.G. Marshall said was going great, except for his Epilogue where he makes a reference to the Book of Revelations and the Devil. How is that related to Aliens from outer space? Because the Spiritual & the Extraterrestrial don’t mix that well. But stories combining the Spiritual & the Supernatural (i.e. demons & vampires) do. Anyway, the sound effects of the car running, rotary phone ringing, the ship lifting off, the high oscillating hum, the time warp, air vents, footsteps moving around, opening the mysterious door, dragging the table, lighting the match, and the time warp again were outstanding. And so was the music. Themes of anxiety in ACT-1, intense fear in ACT-2, and tension built in ACT-3. What’s even more outstanding, was our cast: Julia Meade (as Dr. Theresa Webber), Sydney Walker (as Commissioner Gordon Webber), Ira Lewis (as Captain Luke Strong), and Jack Grimes (as Cap Com & Drakon the Alien). If you listen to the voice of the Ancient One in this story, I think he’s played by the voice of Himan Brown. It was interesting to hear Julia Meade saying “Good thinking, Charlie Brownâ€ at the 24-minute 15-second mark; making a reference to a comic strip character in the 5th Dimension of outer space.

If you listen closely to Doris, the wife of the agent/friend of Evan, you see that she several times alludes to her belief that her husband has homosexual desires for Evan, that he is a closet homosexual. His description of his relationship with his wife Doris as close companions is also an allusion. Also, very often he keeps repeating too often that he is Evans "Friend" that he likes him and does everything for him because he is his "friend". So there is a lot of layers here, and the end seems to imply the agent going back into the closet and turning to a family life, which is very 1970''s.

I am pretty sure this episode "the Mortgage", written by Sam Dann, inspired the current TV Show THE AMERICANS about Soviet spies living as Americans with homes and jobs. The way he said he is an American makes me think it inspired even the name of the show, besides the general idea. Other CBS Radio Mystery Theater episodes also inspired (though they were not credited), to greater or lesser degrees, many movies, TV Shows  and Novels, including two movies this year: the 2015 Movie EX MACHINA must have been greatly inspired by "Life Blood" written by Murray Burnett, and the 2015 Movie THE AGE OF ADELINE must have certainly been inspired by "Age Cannot Wither Her" written by Sam Dann. Certain aspects of The TV Show LOST must have been inspired by "No Way Out", about mysterious recurring numbers, and an older movie, the original THE OMEN seems likely to have been inspired by the episode "Sacrifice in Blood". Also, listening to the episode "Charnel House" there is a sense that the mood, and settings might have inspired the novel and movie SHELTER ISLAND.

(8884, '0658', 'episode', 'Russell', '', 'I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. Henry Slesar had quite of an imagination when he wrote for CBSRMT. This wasn’t just a Sci-Fi story about a guy named Smith who became a God, but a story about the man who knew a God named Smith. Another way to title this episode would be “Smith’s Worldâ€ or “â€Smith, Inc.â€ or even “Smith’s Right Hand Man.â€ There were a lot of plot points and an intense climax. However, I think there should’ve been an intense resolution, like a cautionary tale for anyone that wants to play God. The sound effects of the wine being poured, monkey wrench twisting the nut & blot, low pitch whine from the World Building Machine that speeds up and creates a lightning bolt, newspaper editors typing and murmuring, rotary phone ringing, the telegram, patrons murmuring in the theatre, unlocking the door, the explosion on the “Bleeding Earth,â€ and the disastrous eruptions of Smith’s world were nicely done. The music, however, needed more. In ACT-1 there were only 2 music tracks. But in ACT-2, there were great music themes for a dramatic conflict. In ACT-3 we get to hear the music from “The Invadersâ€ episode from the TWILIGT ZONE at the 34-minute mark. It would’ve been great if they added music melodies of peace & harmony on Smith’s world so people would know how different it is than the Earth. Great acting from our cast: Norman Rose (as Luke Wingate: the Atheist), Russell Horton (as Smith: the God & George Burgess: the rebel from the Anti-Smith League), Evie Juster (as Evelyn Wilson: the theatre actress & Elita Morgan: the rebel from the Anti-Smith League), and Robert Kaliban (as the reporter, Gill Curtis, and Lou Briggs). I think Russell Horton pulled it off nicely for playing a character that was a pre-teen and then transitioned to be a young adult. Plus, Norman Rose’s voice as the concerned storyteller was top notched. As for our Host, E.G. Marshall was top notched as well. In his Prologue, he brings us into the story about a future god who was born on July 19th, 1977. In ACT-1, he informs the fans that no one knew more about Smith than his friend Luke Wingate. Later, he asks us fans can anyone become a God just from dust particles & electrical energy. In ACT-2, 6 years have passed and Luke has a career in journalism before he encountered Smith again. At the end of the Act, Smith loses Luke as his first disciple, but that doesn’t stop Smith from being a God. In ACT-3, it’s the year 2009 and Smith’s world is now created where it’s between Earth & Mars. In this type of future, the best Earthlings go to Smith’s world to make it better while Luke and the other Earthlings stay on Earth where it has become Oblivion. At the end of the Act (SPOILER ALERT), Smith’s world is gone; a dead rock/a tombstone of a planet. In the Epilogue, our Host said that everyone dreams of creating a world by using our imagination. And that’s what’s great about the CBSRMT series: using our imagination that makes this classic radio series unforgettable. Not just for the old fans, but newcomers as well.

(8911, '1060', 'episode', 'Russell', '', 'I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. A Fantasy-Mystery involving time travel like this one written by G. Frederick Lewis was entertaining, but not epic. The story wasn''t just about the time box; it was mainly about the time traveler himself who came across the invention, the inventor, and the inventor''s daughter. As it turns out, SPOILER ALERT, the time box was used a number of times to get people from the past to come to 1880. The inventor set the time box to the future, only once, so that someone in 1980 would come back and give the inventor the information that he needed. It was a deliberate plan! As for the climax where the hero hits the villain with time box and he vanishes along with it, I think the hero in this story did that subconsciously so he could stay in the 19th Century. Another way to title this CBSRMT episode would be "The Time Voyager." I would give an applause to Russell Horton (as Jake Howard & Dr. Hans Flexer), Diane Kirkwood (as Priscilla Harper & the Nurse), and Robert Dryden (as Dr. Dryden Harper & Mac) for portraying their main roles, but not a standing ovation for portraying their minor roles. To me, it just didn''t fit well as they portray the other characters with different accents. I can imagine John Lithgow as Dr. Hans Flexer, Evie Juster as the Nurse, and E.G. Marshall as Mac. Speaking of E.G. Marshall, he was a good Host, but sounded more mellow than usual. In his Prologue, he brings up the topic of accepting time; it moves forward, but people live their time backwards. Then he asks is it possible to repeat life; not by reincarnation, but to live life in a different Era? In ACT-1, he brings us into the story where it takes place in a town called North Orange where we meet our main character. At the end of the Act, we know now that an eyewitness of the future is consulted by a scientist of the past. At this point, the Host doesn''t want to know the Unknown. In ACT-2, we''re brought up to speed on what happened and he questions us fans that if someone from the late 21st Century came to the 20th Century, when most of us were listening to this Radio Program, wouldn''t we be curious to know what''s happening in that Era? But HERE is where E.G. Marshall messed up. At the 15-minute 55-second mark, he mistakenly says the name "Patricia" instead of saying "Priscilla." SPECIAL NOTE: This is NOT the first time that our Host made this mistake. In Ep. #0699-THE ADVENTURES OF DON QUIXOTE, he said Larry Haines'' name in the cast credits when it was clearly Robert Dryden who played Sancho Panza (Don Quixote''s servant). But anyway, at the end of the Act, E.G. Marshall informs us that Queen Victoria received chloroform as an anesthetic during the birth of her son: Prince Leopold. In ACT-3, he questions if we mess with time itself, the littlest things in the past could change drastically in the future, especially Love. At the end of the Act, he makes a point that if you could travel backwards, it may feel like you''re in a Utopian world where things were simpler. But traveling forward, it can be a Dystopian world for many. Finally, in his Epilogue, he finishes it off with a great quote from Benjamin Franklin: "If time be of all things the most precious, wasting time must be the greatest prodigality since lost time is never found again" (and that''s from THE WAY TO WEALTH from Poor Richard''s Almanac). What I enjoyed the most were the sound effects & music. The sounds of the typewriter, steam shovel, car horns, explosion, trolley dinging, clock ringing at 11, birds chirping, horses and carriages, holding the black wooden time box with 2 dials, clock ringing at 4, pouring the beverages, clock ringing at 5, pulling up the chair, door opening & closing, footsteps, horse drawn trolley with the bell, pounding & bursting of the dentist door, the furnace at the laboratory, tongs, bell jar, poker stick, running of a prowler, and the explosion of the time box were splendid. There was that amiable track in ACT-1 (which they used in Ep. #1035-THE SPECTER BRIDEGROOM), tensional themes in ACT-2, and tracks of shocking suspense in ACT-3, along with a happy ending theme.

(8944, '0710', 'episode', 'Russell', '', 'I rate this episode ★★★★★ for EXCELLENT. Not only is this one of the best Drama-Mystery stories on CBSRMT, but also has one of the best surprising endings of all! Just like Ep. #0367-THE SUMMER PEOPLE, this was an Eye-Opener! At first, we think it’s a typical mystery story filled with snooping circumstances. But when we get to the very end and realize what it’s really all about…WOW!!! Bravo to Victoria Dann for writing a dramatic and compelling tale! The sound effects, I like. Beeping on the phone, the bubbling in the laboratory, door being knocked, the mysterious note, background noise of the cafeteria, the collapsing thud of the doctor’s body, opening the desk drawers, and the nostalgic sound of the cassette tape being played. There was chilling theme music in ACT-1, suspenseful tracks in ACT-2, and doomful themes in ACT-3. As for our Host, E.G. Marshall brought suspense to its finest. In his Prologue, he mentions a philosopher who said, “We are all doomed.â€ And people fear the inevitably of death. A pensive beginning, I think. In ACT-1, he mentions the details of government bureaucracy and obscurity because he’s referring to what our main character is involved in and later he mentions the old saying, “Physician, heal thyself.â€ In ACT-2, he informs us fans that our main character has 2 things to go on: experience (which he doesn’t have) & instinct (the subliminal sense that we all use to know what’s right or wrong). The Host mentions the words of a poet who said, “The road to Resolution starts with doubt. The best way homes the farthest way about.â€ And that’s another to thing what our main character goes through: doubt, which is the ultimate weapon of man’s own conscious. In ACT-3, he mentions the will to live & die. At the end of the Act, he gives us the resolution right after the climax on where this Project is at. In his Epilogue, he asks if man is bent on destroying himself. A pensive question that all of us must answer on our own. But the best part in his Epilogue was when he explained what CBSRMT is about: to expand the imagination, to heighten the senses, and to tantalize the curiosity (and tune in to the fear…you can hear). And our cast was outstanding in this: Larry Haines (as Eli Hews), Robert Dryden (as Colonel Lily & Professor Shoop), Catherine Byers (as Adrian & Dr. Jeri Baylor), and Court Benson (as General E.F. Glenn & Dr. Hilary). SPECIAL NOTE: at the 18-minute 54-minute mark, Court Benson says the line “Leave well enough aloneâ€ which is the title of an episode that the actor performed in: Ep. #1115-LEAVE WELL ENOUGH ALONE. But my favorite line was at the 11-minute 56-second mark when he said, “To feel sorry is to care. And to care is to become involved.â€ Compassionate words spoken by Court Benson and written by Victoria Dann. Tune in to this one, everybody, because it’s an ending you’d never expect.

Several of his victims first decide individually to kill him instead of paying, but fail in amusing ways. Then they find that to protect their various secrets they must now join forces for a rather different purpose...".  Leave it to the British to find humor in murder & blackmail.  The victims include a young PETER SELLERS, TERRY-THOMAS (a favorite of mine), as well as other well-known British actors from the 1950''s and 60''s:  Shirley Eaton (the gold-painted girl in James Bond''s "Goldfinger"), Peggy Mount, Miles Malleson, Joan Sims - well, at least they''re well known if you are a fan of vintage comedies from "across the pond"!

There were dramatic tunes in ACT-1, suspenseful themes in ACT-2, and tension rising in ACT-3. The peaceful melody at the very end was a nice touch. There were the sounds of the hotel reservation pages turning, music from the French cafe, water running, door being knocked, a couple of punches, the newspaper, the rotary phone (this story takes place in 1954), and the high blowing wind at the top of the Eiffel Tower. There was more dialogue & music, but less sound effects. But more importantly, our Host was intriguing and very informative. In his Prologue, E.G. Marshall quoted Philip Amour who said, "No better looking glass than old friend." Good intro because that was the topic of this CBSRMT episode: friendship. In ACT-1, he quoted Ralph Waldo Emerson who said, "I do not wish to treat friendships daintily, but with the roughest courage." Later he quoted Martin Farquhar Tupper who said, "A true friend does sometimes venture to be offensive." Like the old saying, "Friendship is a 2 way street." In ACT-2, he quoted Frank Crane who said, "you may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you don''t trust enough." (That is 1 of my favorite quotes of all time.) In ACT-3, E.G. Marshall explains that people burden Reunions with too many expectations. That depends on what the Reunion is: a High School reunion, a Family reunion, or in this case, a war reunion. In his Epilogue, after explaining what was the outcome of our main characters'' lives after Utah Beach on D-Day, he states that if we leave it entirely up to fate, we''re in trouble…something to think about. And finally, our cast was excellent: Paul Hecht (as Louis Simons), William Griffis (as Inspector Malraux & French Hotel Manager), Mildred Clinton (as Janie Simons & Juliette), and Sam Gray (as Hank Murphy/Henri Jones).

(8986, '0389', 'episode', 'Russell', '', ' I rate this episode ★★★★☆ for GOOD. Henry Slesar wrote one of the darkest Drama-Mysteries that I''ve heard on CBSRMT. I haven''t yet listened to all 1,399 episodes, but this is the first one that I heard involving rape. Part of this story reminds me of the 1996 film EYE FOR AN EYE where the main character gets the shock of their life when a family member gets raped and murdered and the killer gets off easily, so the hero plans to create their own kind of justice. The characters were well defined, a twisted plot point in ACT-3, good shocking climax, but the resolution was so-so. The main character accomplished his goal, but an ending that should''ve been more suspenseful. It was interesting to hear the actors mention Winnie The Pooh; a Disney character in a radio series run by CBS. Also, in the court room scene, the story takes place on October 5th, 1974; which is the day that CBSRMT aired Ep. 0129-THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY. And the date for the killer''s execution was set for March 31st, 1976; which is the day that CBSRMT aired Ep. 0459-THE SPIT AND IMAGE. The sound effects of the car horn, kitchen door, car engine running during traffic, washing dishes, phone ringing, doorbell, footsteps, birds chirping, groceries, dialing inside the phone booth on the expressway, people murmuring in the court room, classical music on the stereo, piano music, opening the desk drawer, and the mysterious note were effective in this dark tale. There was happy music at the beginning of ACT-1, shocking tunes in ACT-2, and dreadful tracks in ACT-3. Now as vile as it was to hear the rapist/killer made his move at the 10-minute mark, it would be darker and even bone-chilling if they added music for that particular scene. Listen to the music tracks at the 33-minute mark from Ep. 1245-THE JUDGE''S HOUSE. Play that music in this story, it would be nefarious but it would make any listener''s blood run cold! As for our Host, E.G. Marshall started off strong in his Prologue where she says, "Please be warned. Some of the scenes may not make you feel safe and secure, even if your door''s locked and bolted." Good intro, but it would''ve been greater if he started out with the classic phrase, "The fear…you can hear." In ACT-1, he mentions the town: Park Pleasant. The day: Monday. The time: 8:15AM. Then says, "The day is just beginning…so is the nightmare." In ACT-2, after the court room, E.G. Marshall mentions that even the killer is still alive, the physicians don''t know that he''s suffering from a terminal illness called "revenge." Now, he''s talking like Rod Serling. In ACT-3 he informs the fans that Justice is finally served. But then at the Epilogue, E.G. Marshall says, "If you are disturbed, why not sit back now, have a nice warm drink, go to bed early, and take tomorrow off. Then you will be already for a little more terror and suspense when we return with another episode of Radio Mystery Theater." QUESTION: Did anybody thought about having a warm beverage, passing out quickly, and took the next day off after hearing one episode involving rape and murder? I digress. But more importantly, the cast was phenomenal: Gordon Gould (as Dave Farmer), Earl Hammond (as Stan), Russell Horton (as Vernon White & George Waterman), Hetty Galen (as Susan Farmer & Paula), Lesley Woods (as Connie Farmer & the Judge), and Roy LeMay (as Patrolman & Mr. Ross). My favorite part was at the 34-minute mark where Gordon Gould read the mysterious note: "I have to see you. Dave leaves for the city at 8:30. I''ll try to send Susie out to Day School. I''ll be waiting for you, darling. Please don''t disappoint me." Listen to his tone of voice as he reads it; it''s compelling and theatrical. Tune in to this one if you''re seeking for a dark mystery involving rape, murder, vengeance, and surprising twists.

Mystery Theater always did science fiction very well, especially stories about the future.  I wish they had done more (fFor one of the best sci-fi radio plays of all time, listen to Prisoner of the Machines starring a young John Lithgow with a long cameo by Hyman Brown).  In ''Children'' Tony Roberts (occasional Mystery Theater actor and always a stand-out) plays ''Gold,'' a young member of the male tribe, who upon reaching manhood, must venture into the forest and either capture a female to bring back to the camp for procreation or die trying.  Interestingly, members of the female tribe, such as Flower (the woman Gold confronts) are required to do the same.  Gold is unique in that, despite being the son of the tribe''s religious leader (perenial Mystery Theater regular and legend Robert Dryden) he rejects the overall system and long-lived patterns of hatred for the opposing female tribe.  This attitude of appreciation of the similarities rather than differences between the tribes is contagious, especially on the battle-tested veteran Flower.  Though the manner of speech could be tiresome to the ear, listeners should appreciate the strict adherence of the Sam Dann''s script to the small vocabulary and use of language by the simple people of this futuristic and uncivilized world.  Children of Death is a captivating listen of a fascinating concept that I enjoy time and time again.  Though history disagrees with the idea that the opposing sides of the Cold War were merely different sides of the same coin, the over-riding message of peace, love, and coexistence is inspiring.  The story''s end is quite moving and touches the heart.  I give Children of Death four stars - JUROR # 4.', '2015-06-22 20:20:39', 1, '7456153283e73f5a2f49c8bfda11b460', '104.228.76.175'),

However as the actors settled in to their roles, the episode became quite interesting and dramatic, especially with the introduction of Big Bill’s niece, played by the mesmerizing Rosemary Rice; one of the sweetest voices in the Mystery Theater ensemble (listen to “Overnight to Freedomâ€ for an absolutely captive performance by nymph-like Rice, interestingly, here again playing the young relative of a defense contractor).  Sam Dann’s play does take a significant degree of license with the powers of ESP as well as a number of other ‘conveniences,’ but as happens so often E.G.

I’d like to start off by giving a round of applause to this outstanding cast: Michael Tolan (as Gary Stewart: the Agent), Teri Keane (as Kitty Lockwood Stewart: the Actress), and Carol Teitel (as Mona Clayton: the Actress with claustrophobia). SPECIAL NOTE: Himan Brown plays the role of Lieutenant Hench. Carol Teitel was so marvelous in this; she was equivalent to Larry Haines’ character in Ep. #0167-THE BLACK ROOM; filled with so much of fear, anxiety, and distress. Almost made my blood run cold! As for Teri Keane; bravo for playing a villain that CBSRMT fans would love to hate. Another way to title this story would be “A Bitter Subconscious.â€ Nancy Moore wrote this Drama-Mystery and it was really building up in every Act. After listening to the shocking truth in the third Act, I think a better ending would be if Kitty Lockwood Stewart committed suicide the same way that Mona Clayton did. And as for Bobo, Mona’s dog, it would’ve been better if it snarled at Kitty instead of whimpering; to give the CBSRMT listeners a clue that she is the villain. But anyway, there were suspenseful tunes in ACT-1 and in ACT-2, but not much in ACT-3. That goes the same with the sound effects. You get to hear the sounds of the telephone, the dog whimpering, the door being pushed/pulled/kicked/pounded, the hollowing wind in New York, and the door breaking down, but hardly any sounds in the final Act. There weren’t even sound effects of the window breaking or hearing Mona’s body hit the ground from jumping 16 stories to her death. Oh, well. And of course there’s our Host. In his Prologue, E.G. Marshall brings up the topic of phobias, one in particular: claustrophobia. In ACT-1, he brings us into the story where we meet our main characters. At the end, he mentions that Mona’s fear is tormenting her; a fear that worsens through the passage of time. In ACT-2, he mentions the original definition of “obsessionâ€ based off of Noah Webster. Then, he asks if Mona was possessed by fear or an evil spirit. In ACT-3, he quoted words from the DON JUAN story by Lord George Gordon Byron who wrote, “And if I laugh at any mortal thing, ‘tis that I may not weep, but she cannot hide her tears with laughter anymore.â€ I believe the reason why Nancy Moore wrote this part in this episode is to allow people to learn to laugh more and cry less, but for this deadly situation, laughter isn’t the best time (unless you have a dark sense of humor). And at the end of the final Act, E.G. Marshall announced that Kitty Lockwood Stewart was possessed all along; possessed to be a green-eyed monster. E.G. Marshall’s task as Host was going great, except there was no Epilogue; it was cut off! The fans of CBSRMT will never know what his concluded words might have been.

I was delighted to rediscover it on this website a short time ago and now that I have listened to it again as an adult I admire it even more.  What a wonderful piece of work!  It teaches a great lesson: that character is destiny -- one''s fate isn''t determined by luck or happenstance but by what is in one''s heart.  The "present day" Dotty is miserable because she isn''t wealthy, and she envies Jane simply because Jane dines at fancy restaurants and wears diamond jewelry.  But Dotty''s dissatisfaction is utterly shallow.  Except for money, there''s no reason for her to be jealous of Jane.  After all, it was Dotty who won Harold''s heart 21 years ago, not Jane.  And although Harold may not be a great worldly success he''s "handsomer than ever," is still happy in his work, and after all these years of marriage he still treats Dotty with affection.  Jane, on the other hand, has had three failed marriages and except for her jewelry she doesn''t seem to have much else to show for herself.  Dotty keeps telling herself "if only, if only" but when she gets the chance to relive the critical moment of her life she makes the exact same choice she did before, because deep in her heart she is still the same person; she hasn''t learned a single thing from her life.  The "Erik the Red" ending is admittedly a bit strange, but I think it''s entirely appropriate that having TWICE failed her test of character, Dotty doesn''t deserve all the things she had at the beginning of the story -- a decent husband, a steady job, and the comforts of modern life.

Still, I feel sorry for him because of the way she nags and criticizes him all the time. No matter how nasty she gets, he always tries to make her happy and she doesn''t seem to appreciate him, no matter how hard he tries to please her.

(9114, '1395', 'episode', 'Russell', '', 'I rate this episode ★★★☆☆ for AVERAGE. I give G. Frederick Lewis credit for writing a Drama-Mystery with a pinch of fantasy in the mix. Everything was going smoothly in ACT-1 and in ACT-2. But for ACT-3, it felt like the story went off course. Just like Ep. #1395-PORTRAIT OF THE PAST, things took a turn in the final Act and the mystery itself, the best way I can describe it, went “topsy-turvy.â€ And since the smile-shaped cloud in this story was so terrifying to the characters, a better title would be “The Lingering Smile.â€ Tammy Grimes did an OK job as Host. Not tremendous, nor appalling, just so-so. In her Prologue, she brings up the topic: Mysterious Happenings and what are the reasons, the causes, the whys, and the wherefores that they are here (and 1 mysterious happening that I would like to know, is why Tammy Grimes got to be picked to be the Host instead of picking Mercedes McCambridge or Morgan Fairchild or any other actress in this series). In ACT-1, she brings us into the story, explaining the details of the first scene involving a telegram. In ACT-2, she gives us the summary of the previous Act. At the end of the Act, she questions us on who are the duplicates that our main characters saw and what does it have to do with the smile in the sky. At the end of ACT-3, she talks about people getting a second chance in life and there is a smile-shaped cloud somewhere in the world. No Epilogue because the recording was cut short. If E.G. Marshall did this CBSRMT episode, I bet he would’ve used quotations from famous writers and he would explain this tale more poetically and more methodically. The sound effects of holding the telegram, the boat engine running, sea gulls, buoy, wind blowing by the lighthouse, pulling the cables, high winds by the whirlpool, rowing of the oars, and pouring of the coffee were effective. But the music was frighteningly good! ACT-1 had themes of serenity, then switch to melancholy, then to dark & eerie tracks that caused fear to rise. ACT-2 had tracks to feel like death is closing in on our characters. ACT-3 had the haunting melody that they used in Ep. #1245-THE JUDGE’S HOUSE, and then played tracks to ease down the suspense to bring in a pleasing ending. Excellent music tunes. And speaking of excellence, our cast: Tony Roberts (as Bill Van Church: the writer), Marian Seldes (as Grace Van Church: the music teacher), and Fred Gwynne (as Wilbur Van Church: the uncle). SPECIAL NOTE: Himan Brown plays the Doctor. Tony Roberts reminds me of Larry Haines for playing characters that are filled with paranoia. Marian Seldes is so talented for playing characters that are kind-hearted and deeply concerned for others. And it’s always a pleasure to hear Fred Gwynne, no matter what character he plays. Tune in to this mysterious tale if you wish to see how it ends.
