Ditto! Although they’re so good they have the effect of guaranteeing any chance of 40 winks is overcome by the fascination, excitement, amusement and sheer pleasure these night-long compilations bring to this jaded old soul… 🥱😵🥱😴 😵💫 😳 🙏
I’m a huge fan of Bob Bailey. Either George or Jonny Dollar. The only thing I would have changed is I wish George would have married Clare. Or spanked her once in a while. She loves him so much but he is blind too her love. That is the 1950’s for you. These shows are fantastic. Very well written. Thank you for posting these in 5 episode blocks.
In the first two pilot episodes. His name was not George Valentine. His name was George Lincoln. They change the name to George Valentine on episode three.
Absolutely true! Best to have a different face in your mind’s eye. Maybe like a Stacy Keach jr. Or even middle aged Tom Waits. Or maybe even Mickey Rourke just post Angel Heart or Fred McMurray just post double indemnity. Heck, even Bruce Willis circa Last Man Standing. Used to think of a younger Edward G. But that changed in my mind the longer I listened. It wandered towards Jack/Jake from Chinatown - but his face is just a bit too smug to fit. The true beauty of golden era OTR… the mind pictures it paints. Thanks so much to whomever listed these fabulous compilations. Better than pretty much all modern tv just churned out with little thought to quality over quantity. Peace to all. 🙏
I have conflicting feelings about this show. It’s tone and the rhythm are different enough to separate it from Johnny Dollar but my brain has refused to allow me to do that. Unfortunately it’s not the first time my brain and I have been pulled in different directions.
Thank you for sharing these. They get this insomniac through the night.
Glad you like them!

there's no mistaking Bob's voice - it's one of those voices that don't seem to match the face
Absolutely true!
