"The Reincarnation" is a very atypical sort of episode of "Barnaby Jones", as it is all about the supernatural and is really silly at the end. Some might have enjoyed the change of pace...I didn't.
When the story begins, a young man arrives at a party and the host (Vera Miles) is taken aback, as he looks a lot her long-dead husband. And, through the course of the show, more and more details about the young man's life convince her that he IS the reincarnation of this man. Sounds silly? Well, not for most of the show. BUT, at the end the acting by the two baddies is really over the top and silly. See it an see what I mean.
Overall, a silly and disappointing episode...a type of which I hope isn't repeated as I continue watching the series.
