#ArnoldLaven's The Monster That Challenged the World (1957) is one of the earliest, if not thé earliest, example of this peculiar movie and television trope: the coroner's lunchbreak. Having some cold cuts over some cold cuts never gets old. Or appetising.

A real oddity, a 1955 TV version of the classic movie Miracle on 34th Street. It is bizarre viewing with the look-alike cast using an edited version of the same script as the movie with a couple of very odd alternate scenes. Thomas Mitchell, Uncle Billy in It's a Wonderful Life, comes across as a very unhinged Kris Kringle who probably should have been locked up. Enjoy!
