Back in the late ‘70s we got our Star Wars fix any way we could get it- no matter the source. So if sitting through an episode of the Donnie and Marie variety show on September 23rd, 1977 was the only way I could again see Chewbacca, the droids and stormtroopers than so be it.
Who is playing the part of the innkeeper?
Is it an uncredited Alan Hale Sr?

In 1975, you could have made Frankenstein meet the Wolf Man thanks to the AURORA Plastics Company.

As much as I like “Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man” it could use some Abbott & Costello.

Sixty years ago if you wanted to watch “Frankenstein Meets The WolfMan” you’d mailorder it from the back pages of FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND magazine.

I’m getting a lot of pushback on this so I want to clarify my position before something regrettable happens.
What I’m saying is that older Larry Fine in the newer 3 Stooges shorts is funnier than the younger Larry Fine in the older 3 Stooges shorts.
🔥Hot Take🔥
Post-Shemp Larry Fine is funnier than pre-Joe Besser Larry Fine.
And that’s a hill I’m willing to die on.
#Svengoolie has to be @MeTV ‘s highest rated show, right? So why not give us more Svengoolie during the weekdays? Why not Svengoolie on Wednesday nights too?! Increase the channel’s overall weekly ratings numbers!
MeTV’s Boo-Nanza continues! 🎃 Tune in this Saturday at 8P | 7C for a double feature that’s sure to raise some spirits! 👀 #Svengoolie
First up: Invasion of the Body Snatchers, presented by Svengoolie, followed by This Island Earth, presented by the House of Svengoolie. 👻
