The male lead looks old enough to be his fiancée's father!
Even grandfather!
@@debraperez7171 You're right! 😄😁
Not much has changed since! Old dudes and young babes!
@@Melinda8162 Yes, no kidding.😄😁
Yes,even Grandfather!
“You can get use to the way she looks, once you’ve tasted her food.” Lol. That was a pretty cruel thing to say in front of guest.
I didn’t know Walt Disney was an actor too!
😂
That’s not Walt Disney
@@maggiemagennis3507 I know. It was a joke.
@@BananaHammock2001 i know it was a joke. 😄 He does remind me of Disney, though. You're right. 😊
He does look like Walt Disney
I love these short, complex, suspenseful, episodes. Usually much wry humor. "I never liked these itty bitty things myself", said the elderly British gentlemen, referring to the caviar hors d'oeuvres.
She tried to hire his cook out from his own kitchen!? Wow. He killed the wrong woman.
Not his kitchen- he went to her apartment
Mother introduced me to these in the 1960's. Still love watching them.
Why does he look so surprised she is dead? He strangled her after all!
Maybe he came to his senses, and realized what he’s done. He probably wished he could take it back, but it was too late. Let this be a lesson to all the potential murderers out there.
@@alfreddreamerphotocomics4880my my my!!!!
Very strange story. He should have just gone to a good lawyer. He had money and a beautiful new girlfriend
…but the script wouldn’t allow him to.
@@alfreddreamerphotocomics4880 Yeah that usually interferes with things. Most of the time anyway.
She should have taken the 10,000 dollars!
That's what I thought.
"i'll never give ya no divorce! Neva! Neva!"🤣😆
Yea...it's always a little awkward when someone strangles another, only to have an acquaintance suddenly pop out of the bathroom, realize it, and run off screaming hysterically.
Just a little.
Ha Haaaa - To say the least!?
I hate when that happens
lol
You should see the full show!
Jo Van Fleet! - An exceptional character player
Yeah she sure is. She played in another episode of Hitchcock Presents title "Return to Finder". I hope I got title correct. She also played the stepmother in Cinderella by Roger's and Hamerstein in 1965.
Give us the whole episode, please.
Wish I could see full episodes of these I love them.
Me too
Hitchcock gets the bums rush.
Cool apartment.
I like the front door and spiral staircase
Alfred Hitchcock always had the best houses. It created the ideal setting for his stories.
I like the black gaffers tape on the floor 5:00 where Joan Hackett hits her mark 😅
Oh my gosh !!!!!
That small bit was so good I wish the whole thing was played.
Jo Van Fleet is one of America's greatest actresses. Overlooked these days. If she is in something, it's a must see for me.
Wonderful actress. She did an amazing job in East of Eden.
Who's jo van fleet?
@@eviebev4487 Molly the cook. Next time TCM plays East of Eden with James Dean you will see her as his Mother Kate. She was 5 stars in that.
Loved her in "I Love You Alice B. Toklas"
Her voice kind of reminds me of Shirly Booth...Hazel...lol
Seems to me she'd have been better off taking the money. :)
Yeah she should have took the money but instead she got death.....
@@flippingforreal109 So true.
I don't know what the problem was for the wife her lawyer could've strung the husband up to dry she would've have been sitting pretty with all his dollars. Seems like everything is sorta backwards the girlfriend looks to be a daughter in the company of all those elders, and he puts her on the side line as if he really got it going on. With his attitude both got what they deserved.
Yup, The good ol "should've, could've, would've".... !?
@@PeacePlease. hey , that's my line🤣🤣😄I'm always could've, would've, should've. It does fit this episode perfectly 😄👌👌
In "Merwin's" defence, that had to be about the most irritating voice on earth!
But why not try a set of ear-plugs & a healthy appetite first, and then one fair warning of "money 2 shush or speak n coke"....!? ;0}
Those hors d'oeuvres must have been Really Good!
Wow that's how you spell hors devors🐱😺
@@pamelajordan2890 a friend at school studying home economics wrote in an exam horse douvers... lol 😁cheers.
@@janetbransdon3742 🤩😁😁❤️
They say people who can't spell are very inteli..intalge.. smart❤️😁
Why are they call shores eggs?
He does have a great voice!
This is a very different way to end The Parent Trap
Looks like the set of “Bewitched” 🤔
Yeah, Kerwin’s wife reminds me of Elizabeth Montgomery’s mother.
Jo Van Fleet is great. I always enjoy seeing her.
East of Eden, The Rose Tattoo, Cool Hand Luke. Terrific actress.
They ate finger food in the early fifties, and we pretend to have invented it fifty years later. No memory.
LOL. In all three episodes, poor Jo Van Fleet ends up getting murdered by her husbands!
Wish peacock still had this free
Good one
His wife sounds like she's 3 years old when she talks.
Even way back then old men married women young enough to be their daughters.
Yeah since the beginning of time
Young enough to be the guy's granddaughter !! What parent would marry their young daughter off to such an old coot ?
@@leanie9660 desperate one!
Especially in Hitchcock's woild!
@@leanie9660 Very wise parents depending on the monies.
No such thing as an old coot with cash. Money can make a man, young, handsome and smart.
She called him Merwyn (it's Kerwyn)/@2:33
This didn’t make any sense. Why did he keep saying she wasn’t his wife? Don’t think I’ll watch any more of these partial shows. It’s too irritating seeing only part of the story.
She just showed up recently after he left her years before. She would be seen as an uneducated, "low class" woman. He would be embarrassed by her. Seems he is involved with that younger woman from the first party scene too etc. etc..
Mrhyperbolic Thanks for filling in some of the back story. I appreciate that you took the time.
Ruth Fitzwater I’m trying to find the full length episodes but no joy yet
RedLightSpellsDanger with copyright laws as they are I suppose these truncated versions will be the best to be had for free.
Ruth Fitzwater you’re right 😒
Even though this movie was cut down to 10:51. It was really awesome
I recognize all of these actors, but the only name I can remember is Joan Hackett.
I always enjoyed those low-budget TV plays in the 50's when I was a kid. But my goodness, they look pretty tame today.
"Low budget", Hitchcock?
@@janjISMYname I know, right?
"Tame", really? Strangling the wife is tame??? O_O*
Classic Hitchcock. That’s what they had in. The 50 & 60s. Never gets old..
@@janjISMYname Ikr. We must have a billionaire in the comments. Lol
Love it
"I only wanted... a cook.... A COOOOOOK AHHHGOO... HELPPP!!!
Poor lady didn't even get the respect of being called his wife. Victim of his abuse until the usual murder. Moral of the story, get away from abuse while you still have your life.
Nope, the moral of the story is :don't just stand there with your thumb up your keister, put the nosy lady to sleep as well....but quick!
Were we even watching the same clip?
😂
Love the writer's voice.
He (John Emery) once appeared in an early I LOVE LUCY ep
That's a smoker's voice.
Be careful who u marry!! Phew crazy man
Also as the grouchy retired man who reported little Ricky's dog to Fred Mertz
True, he did! Almost similar to Vincent Price, or Boris K. Infact each of the characters here had great voices for the characters they each portrayed. Also the audio was recorded well. Very well created scenes. Typical of Alfred Hitchcock’s work.
I want ALL of the jewelry in this clip, especially the necklace of the "you just can't get good help" woman. 😁
LOL 😆 is the wife calling him 'Merwin' instead of Kerwin? She's a treat 😂
Everyone, namely his guests, is calling him Kerwin but his wife, who calls him Merwin. Cast lists him as kerwin drake! Kerwin Merwin...odd silly names! Imo
The My Pillow Guy stars in this one 😂😂
I love this
great mysterious show
Good ☝😉
Good One Greg!
Wonderful Jo Van Fleet!
I think I would of settled for the money.
The actress playing the daughter was stunning (name?) . … I bet Ol Hitchcock had his eyes on her, from what I have read about the ol bloke.
This is real acting
I'd say grandfather more like it
May We have a full episodes....please. so interest indeed 🤗
-Yes A full episode would be nice OR add about 8 more minutes to each episode. 9 to 11 minute episodes are just to short.
Trouble in the middle east? Who would have thought.😃
👍🤣🤣🤣
The best
good help is so hard to find
So where's the first half of this episode ?
She shoulda taken the 10k! 😊
Oh beautiful Joan Hackett🌷
John Emery surely resembled John of Barrymore! At the end of his life, he was taken care of by girlfriend Joan Bennett./
So what happened after? I need the full episode.
Some of y'all are really on a row this evening L😀L .The lady that's playing his wife is Jo Van Fleet she played in the movie Gunfight At The OK Corral with Burt Lancaster & Kirk Douglas as Doc Holiday's
girlfriend Kate & old Doc was dogging the character of Kate. In this clip she done a outstanding job just as well in the movie when she played with James Dean. East Of Eden I think she won a academy award for that role .She had a way of putting her own bright colors of the 🌈 rainbow into each character she played .👏 & 👏 January 29, 2020

Please use punctuation in your comments in the future so that they are easily understood. 😬
@@EYE_GOTCHA maybe next time I will ok 😬something like this : HOW ARE YOU DOING EYE GOTCHA ?? how's that for you & since you so politely said please.

I am flattered 😉 way to go have you ever been a English school teacher or are you a English school teacher now ?or just a CZcams comment detective? 😮😉 have an enjoyable Thursday January 30, 2020 ok take care
@@EYE_GOTCHA well maybe you should to do the same with other CZcams commentators .Ask them to PLEASE use the correct punctuation in the future so that their comments are easily understood .Because if you ✔ the comments you will clearly notice that many comments don't have punctuation's marks in their comments. So why pin point me ? I I must have a bright name & you must like my name ☺ February 24 ,2020
@mm devolange I am not going to change the way I type my comments I am going to keep on typing them the way I've been typing them & when I replyed back to Eye Gotcha I was just messing with that person. 😀 oh so you used to teach English well I am glad that I am not the only one that from time to time that doesn't use punctuation marks perhaps you should start using punctuation marks before professor * Eye Gotcha* be on your case & give you a F in English 😀 2-29-20
@mm devolange You are right Jo Van Cleef can play any chatacter.She plays them very well .I do somewhat recall that epsoide with the pigs .Iwish I knew the tille of episode. I do also recall the episode about the wallet & money. I guess she wanted to get out of Mayberry.She probably got tired of Aunt Bee's Apple Pie 😄take care February 29,2020
I love AH Presents, is this the whole episode?
no, go to dailymotion
This was the end. I checked Dailymotion and it ended at the same place.
Rich bitty, talking about ' What an odd woman! when she's the one who looks odd, lol
What is the point of these? , to ruin the story for the viewer? Why don’t you try running the episodes in their entirety.
well that was a quick case solved
a episode is kill wife，ending is husband is killed
She was in cool hand Luke too;
She played his mother;
In 1955 , Jo Van Fleet won suppt' Oscar for playing James Dean's Mother in
'East of Eden', her first movie role , she was only in her mid 30s, she played Older roles most of her career.
'Wild River' was my favorite Jo Van Fleet movie.
Γειά πολύ ωραία τα έργα σου αλλά δεν έχει με ελληνικούς υπότιτλους ? ευχαριστώ.
$10,000 in 1961 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $103,787.96 today!
Kind of a silly one.... but the comments made up for it.......!? Enjoyed joining in the convo about the 'silly flick with the silly chick' - who should've taken the money!?
They missed the first couple of minutes of this show.
It wasn't smart chopping up these episodes.
So don't watch, simple, if you can do better why haven't you? Instead of criticizing something good and FREE
@@ninamaldonado2285 you idiot these are incomplete. They've chopped out too much. All of my posted vids were removed.
@@ninamaldonado2285 yeah, I don't why people do things like that. If they want the whole story, remember the title of the story, then look it up.
@@lapacesiaconvoi THANKS FOR THE SPOILER!!!!
@@ninamaldonado2285 just because it's free it's notalways good. What exactly is the point of these snippets?
Tell me about it ?!!!
I still love watching the birds..never saw marnie
Some call him Kerwin , others Merwin...why ?????
Maybe he changed his name to Kerwin for his book writing .😁
She only wanted a cook , he goose cook
Falta legendas em português!!!
Joan Hackett was just a baby! Just a bit creepy that the fiancé is at least 30 years older… icky .
How can I get the whole story?
Buying the boxed set or finding some old vhs Nick at Nite recordings.
You can find episodes on dailymotion
Remember the story, then Google it.
The name of the story I mean.
some kildare is on there too
Why cant we have the full episodes like the hitchcock hour. Its to expensive to buy the box sets.
Why can't we all have Porsche 911s?
You're a very foolish person.
Did both parties really have to agree to a divorce back then? I’ve seen many movies. Were one spouse or the other says oh, they’ll never give me a divorce. If one spouse doesn’t want to be married to the other other anymore. There’s not much they can do.
Servants? The mentality of some rich people is disgusting 😒
Can anyone tell me how it ended?
No.
Too bad she was trying to get him to go talk at a restaurant at 7:11 but he wouldn't listen.
It's a movie
He was on an I love Lucy episode..
No offense to the person who uploaded this, but I hate it when I get all excited about a recommendation for a show I really enjoy only to find out that it's just a fraction of the episode.
All of the Hitchcock episodes on this channel are short.
The time shows how long. Stop complaining about something free or don't watch
You can watch full episodes on hulu or dailymotion. I like the clips because it lets me know which episode I want to watch later. Plus it's free 👍
Kerwin or Merwin?
Doesn't matter, it's like Bill or Will.
the wife very comedian and mysteriousbat the same time he just cold man like a rock she is better than him
whatever
🤣🤣🤣
Why do they keep posting parts of an episode it’s so annoying
Possibly copyright. I like the short clips because I can decide if I want to watch the full one on hulu

Sylvia, has such a beautiful voice, very feminine.
….. the inimitable Joan Hackett; she enjoyed a long career in film and TV.
His wife???? And fiancee??? Wow.
Barbara Perkins is girlfriend? She was beautiful!
No, that's Joan Hacket.
they do favor now that you've mentioned it
I thought it was Barbara too.
Is it just the film of 10 minutes??
This one either lost something in the cut edit or was simply an odd/not-great tale with a major plot hole. (How would the witness know to find "the cook" in that particular apartment?)
I spent most of my time trying to figure out what those hors d'oevres were made of! :)
At 9:57, she explained that she'd gone into the kitchen and asked 'the cook' for her address. Question is, did she have any opportunity to do that before she and the other guests left? Maybe in the uncut version?
As great as Alfred Hitchcock’s work is, he does this a lot. I guess he may have been in a rush to meet the deadlines, etc. etc. Who knows? Usually he does so many of the other elements so well, that it more than makes up for his shortcomings in the script.
