The entire series, half-hour and hour.

Half-hour standouts: “Burst of Passion.” An average person breaks down and goes on a rampage. The thing that makes it disturbing is that no explanation is given-it’s probably how Silliphant saw the average, working-class White person, but nonetheless compelling.

“Wood of Thorns.” Virtually a two-person show with Franciscus and Cara Williams, an outstanding dramatic actress who somehow got pigeonholed as a Lucy-type comedienne.

“The Bumper.” Series regular John McIntire... Well, you have to see for yourself!
