The twilight zone finchley

This is my favorite episode and there was no video of it on KZbin

The TV repairman is Barney Philips, who played the diner cook with the third eye in his forehead, in the Twilight Zone episode "Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up?"

[@bonwatcher]

He has his eye on you. 👁

Barney Phillips

[@purplpen]

I thought that was him.

[@nicholasschroeder3678]

He's a creepy looking guy. His eyes bulge and his mouth is too wide.

[@jimoconnor2958]

Also Doc Kaiser from 12 o'clock high

[@eddieboggs8306]

They were bad to use the same actors in those days. Andy Griffen Show did this a lot.

[@deantheodosiou2886]

There should be a sequel to this episode: *"Bartlett Finchley and the Internet"* Imagine that!

[@karencolon5152]

Rumor has it a young Mr Finchley III was recently seen destroying the self-checkout center at Target with a golf club.

That was me. Self-checkout is cruel punishment. But my golf club is the equalizer!

[@JamesSimmons-d1t]

Richard Haydn played gay AND straight roles...in a Dick van Dyke as old radio comedian, and in "Sitting Pretty" 40s comedy film with Clifton Webb in his first of 3 Mr. Belvedere roles AND Maureen O'Hara, married to Father who Knew Best, plus Ed Begley senior...was the funny butler in "And Then There were None", a friend type in "Please Don't Eat the Daisies" film...a fine talent.

[@allys744]

This was one of the first episodes I ever saw! I remember Richard Haydn from Alice in Wonderland and The Sound of Music

[@AL_YZ]

This guy was in the Sound of Music.

[@MegaLivingIt]

In the days when we needed a tv repairman. Thankfully over!

[@LindaMerchant-bq2hp]

I loved twilight zone l was a bit creeped out by night gallery yet great series anthology and terror it was

[@philipkippel3615]

Richard Haydn, who played Finchley, also voiced the Caterpillar in Walt Disney’s Alice in Wonderland.

[@alyssajones4368]

I thought his voice sounded familiar!

[@allenjones3130]

Mr. Haydn is perhaps best known for his portrayal of Max Detweiler in the film version of "The Sound Of Music".

[@ericstenzel6835]

@@allenjones3130 And as "Rogers" in film version of "And Then There Were None."

[@MultiSweener]

He played Rogers in And Then There Were None. 1944. Classic role as the butler.

[@Sandyg1961]

Certainly went down the rabbit hole for that one.

[@geridayao8924]

The repairman forgot to get his job order signed. I'm sure he'll be back.

Bartlett Finchley many years later played the role of Thomas Boleyn, Anne's father in Anne of the Thousand Days.

[@jupiterlegrand4817]

Mr. Hayden is doing a terrific Clifton Webb!

[@lisashapiro5758]

He buys things for functions of the highest quality and smashes ,beats down and throws things. Then insults the only one willing to repair his violence on machines and gets called a larcenist ! Good to know his dedicating a whole chapter on his abuse of both. A regular divinci 🧐🙄💪👁️🗣️. Who anyone rather go on a real date with. Not the absolute boorish man

[@WilldoAldone]

Was just thinking that

[@ardalla535]

The carry-cases used by home TV repairmen in the 50s was much larger than that. It had to have plenty of space for replacement vacuum tubes.

[@truejim]

I remember as a kid, pulling suspect tubes out of the back of our TV, walking a bag of tubes down to the local 5 & Dime, and one-at-a-time hunting for the right socket on their tester to check each tube. Such a feeling of accomplishment to return home and repair our TV!

[@johngreen3543]

They also had a portable tube tester.

[@fermisparadox01]

Tubes are very hard to get right now. Prices have skyrocketed as Russia and China are the only ones making them. Tube guitar amps are still a thing.

[@suevans6436]

the quality of this film is fantastic.

[@im1who84u]

This is the type of person that: Waiters spit in his food. His luggage goes to Chicago while he is going to Los Angeles. The airline ticket counter agent assigns him a seat next to a screaming baby in need of a diaper change. His car is never repaired correctly. Girls take him for money. Never gets invited to parties. When in need of help, there is no one to be found....

[@geoffhennessy275]

Ross Martin. A great character actor. Loved him as Artemis Gordon in Wild Wild West.

[@nicholasschroeder3678]

Haha...that's Barney Philips, not Ross Martin. But they both have the same weird face--too wide in the mouth

[@johnbowen2956]

No. You're confusing Barnes Phillips for Ross Martin. Interestingly they played together in the same episode of Columbo. Ross Martin was the murderer and Barney Phillips was Columbo's boss.

The Doctor from 12 O Clock High. I guess he went into another line of repair work after the war.

What a bizarre-looking video... has it been modified in some way? It just doesn't look like the film of an original Twilight Zone episode. (These days I suspect AI to be behind all video that looks weird or otherwise "updated" and creepy. ) I thought I had seen them all... Now I need to go and check out the original... minus the enhancements.

So this guy escaped the Nazis from Austria with the Von Trapps?

[@akapple3538]

He didn’t escape with the Von Trapps. He stayed behind at the Salzburg Festival as a decoy while the family made their escape.

[@Dr.Pepper001]

This was made in the 60's yet the video quality is very sharp. There are other shows from the 60's that look out of focus and have terrible video quality. Is there some kind of filter or software program that can clean up older TV shows?

[@jamesnoneyabizness5611]

It's not about the filter, it's about the film.

Poor Mr Finchley. He has a real problems machines of any type. Hate him for whatever reason !? Maybe Finchley was born. 100 years to late maybe if he was in the 1860"s instead of the 1960*s he would have had a easier time! I do remember.
