Last episode of season five and first episode produced under the control of Jack Webb and William Conrad. The next new episode would be the start of the totally revamped season six.
The final episode to feature Kookie, as well as the last to feature the iconic theme song. Interestingly, in the end credits, Kookie is listed as "Gerald Kookson, III," the only episode in which he was so billed.
Producer-director William Conrad has a gag cameo as the man wielding the clapper in the take that Kookie and Regal watch in the screening room.
