Mr. Terrific (1967)
2/10
This show's available on DVD
22 December 2019
In Germany, from UFA, under the title Immer wenn er Pillen nahm (Whenever He Took Pills) and can be heard in German or English. If one who's from (North) America wants to buy it, Amazon Germany has it, but the DVD's in a different region from that of (North) America, requiring one to have (or get) a multi-region DVD or Blu-Ray player (ot just watch it on your computer.)

As for the show itself? Sorry, but it's tripe, just like Captain Nice and the show that these two shows were imitations of, Batman '66, plus it's a waste of a great actor. Plus, the ONLY good Mr. Terrific is the one from the DC Comics titles (spelt Mister Terrific), Michael Holt, now appearing as the leader of his own group, the Terrifics, this title of which is currently in print from DC and available at any local comic book shop.

The Eleventh Hour (1962–1964)
9/10
This seems to be a great show, but....
12 November 2019
1) Where the almighty frak did the other reviewers get the idea that current TV is bad?

2) And why is it that the REALITY and frankness of somebody like Dr. House a negative vs.the way the doctors on this show?

3) How do the other reviewers expect TV drama (and comedy) to stay the same way it was when this show was broadcast? Do they think that drama and all of the other genres of TV were to be like an prehistoric insect stuck in amber?

4) Is it ever remotely possible that the reviewers of this older show and others like it can do a review of an older TV show like The Eleventh Hour without bringing their hateful bias against current shows, many of which are considered a part of a new Golden Age of TV?
