Develiker terrible... so disappointed.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
DKosty123 Anne Jeffreys, Robert Sterling & especially the talented Leo G Carroll made this series special. The casting has a chemistry that shows up with every episode I have seen. While the series was made in the early 1950's, I first saw some of them on Channel 9 New York City being re-run in the late 1970's. Not that it matters, the humor in this series is as timeless as any.Topper was actually a movie series prior to this being made. These shows were so good that I was very unhappy after catching some of them that Channel 9 stopped running them. Since I first saw this, I watched the movies. Even though the movies are very good with Cary Grant - this sitcom takes no second seat to the films.I am hopeful this show does come out on DVD in total plus any extras to be found. I'd like to see all of this one, and I am sure I have only seen a mere handful of them. What I have seen in this series hits the humor mark often.
rosco1947 That phrase was how the introduction described Marion Kirby, wife of George Kirby. The Kirbys', along with the ever faithful alcoholic St. Bernard dog Neil, were killed in an avalanche but returned to their home to playfully haunt the current occupants, Cosmo and Henrietta Topper.However only Cosmo Topper could see and hear them. The ever formal Cosmo and Henrietta ( Leo G. Carroll and Lee Patrick ). Talk about contrasts.Born in 1947, I am giving away my age of course; but I never missed an episode. In fact I cherished them. Who could not be drawn to the antics of George and Marion. What 8 year old male couldn't be totally absorbed by Marion Kirby. Knowing they were husband and wife in real life made the attraction to their characters even more pronounced.Where are these episodes ? Probably the powers that be have long concluded that the show would be boring by today's standards. Not so says I !!
ctranger1 I fondly recall watching this show on our first Raytheon TV. I also recall laughing at the crazy antics of George and Marion. The special effects were what I remember, quite good for that early time. Would love to see an episode once again and hear that catchy theme music. Neil, the St Bernard was a classic, drinking gin and I recall Cosmo's always battling with his boss, the stuffy Mr Schuyler (spelling may be wrong). I was hoping that the last show would result in the ghosts becoming visible to Mrs. Topper also. Oh well, I guess that was the five year old that i was at that time always believing that everything would always have a happy ending.
llbunyfufu This show remains as one of my fond childhood memories...don't know how it would translate to the 90s but I've always wondered why it's not among the "oldies but goodies" being recycled on TV these days. Anybody got any suggestions?
