Second City Television (1976)

Episode Overview

Title: Death Takes No Holiday Plot: Phil, the owner of Phil's Nails (which later becomes the Garment King), serves as a humorous homage to Phil Givner, known for his quirky commercials promoting his carpet store in Toronto during the 1970s. Additional Viewing: Renowned for his B-movie thrillers, William Castle often incorporated unique gimmicks into his films. One such example is his 1961 release, Mr. Sardonicus, which featured The Punishment Poll, allowing viewers to vote on the film's conclusion. Also notable is The Amazing World of Kreskin, an early 70s mentalist series hosted by the remarkable Kreskin.
