Bare breasts in the pilot!


Holy crap I nearly chocked on my chicken, watching the stripper wife turn around during her act and there were the twins!..... small pasties on, but all the rest was there!

That MUST have been edited when shown originally.!

I suspect it was for theatrical showings overseas as the feature "Scarface Mob". I was pleasantly surprised and pleased that they included this version on the DVD.

Well I saw the DESLU PLAYHOUSE one twice and they were there big as life both times.

Side note back around 1974 we were in MONTREAL and The show was on one night in SEPIA.

They did that with RIN TIN TIN reruns
Towards the end of the 1970s nostalgia boom, this series was re-released in sepia-tone, with new color wraparounds featuring James Brown in character as Lt. Masters, "telling" each installment's story to a group of children.

Yes, Barbara Nichol's chest was not shown on television but only in theatrical showings. There was no way that would have been allowed on the small screen in 1959.

No blah, blah, blah!
