October 14, 1961 [128] "The
Case of the Crying Comedian"
Director Arthur Marks
Teleplay Robert C. Dennis
Big-time comedian Charlie Hatch learns
that the woman he loved and lost, Anne Gilrain, has
escaped from a sanitarium for alcoholics. Charlie knows
her husband had talked her into committing herself and he
would like to take Anne away from the dirty situation.
When the husband is murdered, Charlie
is afraid that Anne may have done it. He sets himself up
as a likely, suspect to protect Anne. (Now that's either
real love or real stupidity.) He easily gets himself
arrested for the murder, and now he needs a heck of an
attorney to cut through this facade.
Watch for Jackie Coogan, Uncle Fester
of "The Addams Family," who plays Gunner Grimes
in this episode.
