DENNIS THE MENACE, "The Christmas Horse" (1960), featuring Joseph "The Pressure-Cooker Salesman From Punxatawney PA" Kearns as Mr. Wilson. Check out the outdoor scenes, all filmed on the Columbia Ranch backlot in Burbank... Stooge fans will see several familiar facades.

BEWITCHED, "Santa Comes to Visit and Stays and Stays..." (1969). Outdoor scenes were also filmed on the Columbia Ranch backlot in Burbank, but the Stephens' house wasn't yet built when the Stooges filmed there. BEWITCHED's interior sets were on Stage 3 at Columbia Studios in Hollywood; a lot of the later Shemp and Besser shorts utilized Stage 3.

Sourced from an excellent condition primetime network print, with the sponsor logo and interstatials intact. The last BW episode to prominently feature the Kravitzes, with the hilarious, dry delivery of George Tobias.
