Season 9 Trivia

  • Episode 29 - SPOILER: This next-to-last episode of the series is unusual in a couple of ways: There is no climactic courtroom scene in the fourth-act finale, and the killer doesn't actually confess until the epilogue, just before the closing credits.
  • Episode 24 - This episode (and at least one other) features an instrumental of the song "You Need Us," which was sung by the Honeybees on "Gilligan's Island" (1964) {Don't Bug the Mosquitoes (#2.12)}.
  • Episode 23 - Vivienne Segal's last acting performance.
  • Episode 21 - The character of Ben Huggins is the modern counterpart to Fagin in "Oliver Twist".
  • Episode 11 - This story is based, in part, on the Kitty Genovese murder case. In that one, a young girl in New York was fatally stabbed to death while her neighbors sat by and did nothing.
