gotta like the old man in the hat smoking that cigar. he's been wandering around the blue whale since day one.

[@inspectorspinda]

There's so much in this series that's not done well, but I can't help but love it still for its good points. Hopefully it will continue to please more than disappoint :D

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

True, but what do you think is not done well at this point?

[@lindacookingham7]

The woman dancing in the background looked like she was having a stroke. And Willie tried to act like a James Dean wannabe.

[@julienielsen3746]

That was the worst dacing I've ever seen.

[@hollyb6885]

Linda Cookingham Yeah that was painful to watch.

[@RovingRoy]

You haven't seen Elaine on Seinfeld dance!

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

That would have been an interesting choice for Willie - James Dean had he lived and his career tanked by 1966 which it probably would have

[@hollyb6885]

I SO wanted to see Joe knock the stuffing out of Willie.

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

Yeah me too

[@buddy51]

The first hint about the arrival of Barnabas is dropped in the voiceover narration. Is that woman in the back of the Blue Whale the worst dancer in the history of ever?

[@jlasalvia6197]

Absolutely :) ...and isn't that the worst Willie in the history of ever LOL?

[@davidchristman3597]

she could have been on Dancing with the Stars

[@atlantic-yq2wr]

buddy51 She looked like she was doubling over from food poisoning! :D

[@dianagruver5767]

No rhythm whatsoever.

[@reneeg7286]

+buddy51 ... oh my gosh, the most un-funky dancing I've ever seen!

[@raygraham8972]

This Willy has the charisma of wet newspaper.

[@jeffgorham8819]

Jason: "Paul Stddard and I are very much alike." (hehhehhehheh)

[@hollyb6885]

Yeah I got a laugh out of that too.

[@thomasleary2814]

Hey! the "Dead" Whale is turning into "American Bandstand"! Yeah! The "Summer of Love" is just around the corner!

[@davidlyons6235]

I'm surprised Joe was so reluctant to clobber Willie.

[@stormwatcher59]

+David Lyons Wish he would have!

[@danamissouri9367]

That was some dancing.

[@julienielsen3746]

That was dancing?

[@prm1113]

too bad they didn't keep this willie around. definitely more psychotic.

[@hollyb6885]

This Willie is too stupid. Willie had to have some brains to make up lies about barnabas' comings and goings.

[@thomasleary2814]

+pr m They probably didn't keep him around because he's a terrible actor. On top of that I believe he screwed up his lines when he first came over the the table, which even threw off the normally unflappable Kathryn Leigh Scott.

[@inspectorspinda]

Now I'm curious what they do with him later. Never have I wanted a character to die so fast. Literally the first moment I saw him I knew I was in for an adventure

[@hollyb6885]

+Inspector Spinda Willie turns out to be not such a bad guy. Once Barnabas gets hold of him and "adjusts " his attitude I end up liking the poor guy.

[@inspectorspinda]

Holly B I'm not up to Barnabas yet, but once the actor is changed he's a lot less hatable

[@sparky2098]

2:57 "Listen speedball, no one tells me where to sit." Speedball? Doesn't really fit the situation. 20:14 I don't understand the friendship of Jason and Willie.

[@jovonnaholman2008]

Speed Ball!! What that mean?!! Lol

[@valeriecaddell2505]

I was 10 when this first aired so I'm not really up to speed on the vernacular of the time but heck, I wanna know too!

[@julienielsen3746]

Maybe he thought she was fast.

[@marielongoria6714]

Valerie Caddell, you sound so cute when you said you wanted to learn the modern slangs of today. I'm around your age and I feel the same way. I don't know about you but time sure does fly and suddenly, we're no longer the youngest ones in the room. LOL

[@julienielsen3746]

I thought Valerie meant she wanted to know what speed ball meant.

[@davidchristman3597]

Willie's not man a Neff for Maggie . A speedball is win a junkie mixes heroin and cocaine together

[@atlantic-yq2wr]

Boy, Willie would soon be cut down to size from rough edged punk to slithering coward!

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

Yep. From Fonz to Reinfield

[@chrsn]

Con men conning each other. This oughta be good

[@countmeworthy]

speedball????? LOL!!!

[@Pattonfrodo]

yeah what hell is a speedball anyway ? LOL

[@tinadalton8438]

This guy playing Willie has got to be the worst actor in history 👎

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

I don't think he has any credits after this show on IMDB
