Honey West "A Million Bucks in Anybody's Language" #1.12 (1965) (TV)

Honey and the Tiger's Torso, 2 July 2015


Honey receives a late night phone call from a fellow PI. He sounds like he's in trouble and needs Honey's help. Honey and Sam's investigation leads to an explosion, murder, and counterfeit money. 

I had completely forgotten how good A Million Bucks in Anybody's Language is. One of my favorites, in fact. This episode crams a lot of drama and mystery into its 25 minute run. Steve Ihnat makes for one of the best hoods Honey ever faced. His threats have a real air of believability to them. Some nice fight scenes, with Aunt Meg even getting into the act, are another highlight. But, I can't end this without mentioning Honey's Tiger Torso outfit - Wow!

As with the last episode, I've got a number of actors to choose from for the Name That Character Actor. I'm going with Percy Helton. He has 228 acting credits, a familiar face, and a voice you'll recognize instantly.

8/10
