"Gordon's Alive!" - love the nod to the classic line from the Flash Gordon movie.
I loved everything about this film! The story, script, performances, cinematography editing and the soundtrack were all superb. It really captured the times.
I was watching it quite late at night, so I thought I might have to stop it after the first hour and come back to it, but it held my attention all the way to the end.
So how come I'd never heard of it before?
I just found out it's been renewed for a second season! Love this show. And this episode, while it had its funny moments, it was really quite sad.
The last official episode of the series, filmed just before the passing of Jennifer Paterson in 1999.
These are currently available on the Roku channel (on Roku devices, obviously).
Grandma from the Waltons (Ellen Corby) in this episode!
This episode stars Barbara Bel Geddes, later to be known as "Miss Ellie" in the hit show "Dallas," and British actor Michael Rennie, better known for his role as the alien visitor Klaatu in "The Day the Earth Stood Still."
A beautiful episode. Scotty is one of the very few totally sympathetic characters in the Cucumber/Banana world, and I was heartbroken for her and heartened by her humanity.
