Aug 28 07 2:01 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I just ordered a "grey" of this series...it only ran as a pilot, then four episodes of the NBC Wednesday Mystery Movie...I mean just take a look, you get Helen Hayes, Mildred Natwick and those other two fellas thrown into the mix...How could I pass it up. Any of you actually remember the show...any thoughts? I'm gonna enjoy it on some level no matter what.

Aug 28 07 8:27 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Rod, you're correct that there was a TV-movie called "Do Not Fold, Spindle, or Mutilate" which Hayes and Natwick appeared in. I remember it--Myrna Loy and a fourth veteran whose name escapes me now, were also in it. However, Hayes and Natwick did not play the Snoop sister characters. However, it could well have inspired the series to some extent, which I'd like to see again, too. One of the other better Wed. Mystery Movie shows, which also failed, was MADIGAN, with Richard Widmark.

I recall an ad for this show with Shaft in the kitchen with his family (?!) running around looking in the fridge, cabinets, etc., shouting "Where's the butter? Where's the BUTTER?!" And then a voiceover saying something like, "He might not be able to find the butter, but if he's looking for YOU, you better watch out, man." Really, that's what I remember.

Roundtree was literally the only black guy in the cast, everyone else was EXTRA-white, even by watered-down mid-70's t.v. standards. Amazingly, the episode was written by Stephen Bocchco.

But discovering the Snoop Sisters to be Helen Hayes and Mildred Natwick rather explodes that theory. I suppose I had it confused with Nancy Drew or something. I'd be interested to hear how the Price episode holds up; as I recall from descriptions, it involves him as a horror actor suspected of murder. Must've been an unalloyed delight for Vincent to professionally re-unite with Hayes. .'. Earl Roesel .'.

Aug 29 07 10:35 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Yeah, that's one of the other shows that traded off for that Wednesday night Mystery Movie slot, the others were Banacek, and Faraday and Company. The minute I've watched Snoop Sisters I'll get back here with my thoughts...Can't wait!

Coincidentally, last weekend I dropped by my old townhouse in L.A. which we sold a couple of months ago. I saw the new owner had a poster of the movie DUEL and asked her if she was a fan. "Oh, my father produced it," she answered. And another of his producer credits was BANACEK.

I actually remember seeing this episode, a murder occurred during a revival film festival of his old films and he was the prime suspect. The Snoop sisters solve the case with Price acting heroically to catch the real killer. And because of this, he is cast as a hero in his next film to start a new career as a film hero as opposed to villian. A happy ending for all.

Anything is possible, and I wouldn't be willing to swear to any of this in a court of law, but I do seem to remember the "Butter" commercial being the first time I'd ever HEARD of SHAFT. Make of it what you will. Maybe I dreamed the whole thing.

Sep 6 07 1:43 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Here is just a sampling of the many wonders to be found in the Price episode! What a blast. That's Hayes under the Monster mask, with Natwick as The Bride. I'm not tellin' who the Werewolf is. The black and white segments depict the spoof horror movie being shown in this episode, it's supposed to be a film festival which will revive the fading career of the actor Price plays. But how about that "vampire" makeup. He could've given Cesar Romero a run for his money! A really funny turn by 'ol Vincent in this!

Sep 6 07 6:35 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Wow! Awesome captures! I finally looked in on this topic because the name sounded vaguely familiar and I'm glad I did! My mom was/is a big mystery fan and she watched this when it was on and I must've watched it with her. I recall the ladies very well. I must've been 8 or 9 years old. Don't recall this Vincent Price episode though as I'd definitely remember seeing those images! I'd love to see this now.
