Honey West "Little Green Robin Hood" #1.27 (1966) (TV)

Honey and the Emerald Necklace, 12 July 2015


Honey and Sam are hired to investigate a series of robberies in a wealthy neighborhood. What they find is a robber who thinks he's Robin Hood.

Oh God, how I hate this episode. Little Green Robin Hood is about as bad as you'll find in the entire series. The problem - it's supposed to be a comedy, but it's not funny at all. The way it's presented, the whole Robin Hood gimmick is just plain stupid. It's embarrassing. Also, this episode has some of he worst acing I've seen in Honey West. Something tells me that Françoise Ruggieri, the maid, wasn't hired for her acting ability. Her delivery is horrid. Eleanor Audley, the rich Mrs. Murdock, overacts something terrible. And, I've never cared much at all for Edd Byrnes. Overall, a very poor episode.

For this episode's Name That Character Actor, I'm going to select Allen Jenkins with 155 acting credits in his long career.

3/10
