Miss Jameson acted in a number of supporting television and motion picture roles in the 1960's and 1970's. This performer is now 72, and can be found of Face-book. Ghost and Mr. Chicken remains a great favorite that improves with each viewing. With every best wish, Andy in Vancouver.

It wasn't until TV airings of the 70s and later that I could take any pleasure in it. And by then the supporting cast were no longer showing up in force in movie & TV. I was missing them. I still find the sitcom-like orchestration of the non-organ portions of the music score and the great but wildly-lush and perfectly photographed sets a bit off-putting but it is what it is; the comedy and the peformances are great. Crazy title, though.

I was curious if the transfer they were showing was truly an HD transfer or not. Good news!! It did appear to be HD. I compared footage and frames to the DVD version that I have and inspected it closely and CLEARLY the AMC version - although having similar dirt and specs - was much improved and therefore my guess is that it was in High Definition. This is the best I have seen of this classic movie. And, it still plays great and improves for me all the time. I love this movie. I wish Universal or some other company would release the HD transfer on BluRay. The HD version makes the DVD version - which I always thought looked decent - look not so good now. And, remember, "they used bon-ami!". "I saw what I saw when I saw it!"

I'm not talking about just Dick Sargent and Sandra Gould, but also many other character actors that played Darrins' clients. Also, actors that played cops and drunks on Bewitched.

I used to catch this on TV sometimes when I was a kid. I wonder if there are any other kids out there right now having this happen to them? I'd like to think that some things like this never change.

Oct 8 12 3:55 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Okay here's some fun quotes! "And they used Bon-Ami!" "BANG! Right On the HEAD!" "Do calm and murder go together? CALM and MURDER?" "The awfulness and the horribleness of it will never actually be forgotten." \ "Karate! My whole body's a weapon! " "Hail Cosmic Chief! Taro Taro Salomon! " Luther's speech: "I have been called brave. What is brave? Let me clarify this. Of course we all know this is short for brave-r-y. That goes without even being said. But is also a symbol of another thing. It is a symbol of doing one's duty no matter what is scarring him personally. Take your World War II. There was many heroes in World War II. What were your heroes? Who were your heroes? Let me clairfy this. Thank you for having me!" And one of my all time favorites -- "She went home and vibrated for an hour." "I saw what I saw when I saw it!"

Jan 3 13 12:21 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Even though it's a comedy, there's a halfway serious part I always like, and that's Dick Sargent's "boss standing by the employee" moment when he asks Luther to repeat his story, then he sticks his chin out in that "trademark" way of his and says, "There'll be no retraction." Even though that situation doesn't last, it's kind of a "warm moment."
