wasn't there a movie similar to that as well? I seem to remember watching something like that in a drive-in.

When I was young, I remember being impressed by Robert Culp shooting that 1911. He showed good form, even though he was shooting blanks.
Where could I be? Believe or not I'm not home...

Do they have the pilot episode? The DVD's don't. (which I think I bought in a dollar store or someplace)

I remember this show on air. It was creepy as hell even then.

I just watched the whole 1:35 video in the OP and must admit, it's 1:25 more than I watched with it was on air for your exact reason.

But yes, episode one is there.

WOW... just hand my mind blown.
Watching season 2, which I haven't seem since it originally aired. In this one episode was a line that I've had in my head, trying to recall where it came from for years! (I guess 37 years lol) Even having asked other people if they knew where it came from. I was shocked.. "OMG! THAT'S where it's from?" No wonder I couldn't remember.
And then later on in two different spots Robert Culp says two silly expressions/lines that I say from time to time, but had lost any idea of where I got them from. Crazy how you can retain things.. but not.

Seen a few episodes on the lesser known old show channels here. It’s really hard for me to watch my childhood shows now. Seems like it ruins something.

When I was a kid, I loved Culp's Bill Maxwell.
Re-watching it now as an adult... I like him even more!
Strangely enough, they have him carrying a Colt 1902 or 1905 in a couple episodes. I'm sure it was nothing more than a prop guy thing, but it sure was odd to see.
