It's been close to 20 years since I've watched and dissected this great episode, but it was always my favorite, and seeing it again recently on Night Gallery's season 2 reminded me why I felt this way. In a rather star-studded(if you will)cast including Bill Bixby, Carol Lynley, and Donna Douglas, this episode revolves around a statue purchased at a junk shop by a woman who believes that it resembles her husband, played by Bixby. The comparison of Bruce the Black to Bixby is debatable, but perhaps modest enough to annoy him and make him act strange, including trying to bbq a neighbor cat, and kiss his wife's best friend, played by Douglas.
I've seen many episodes of Night Gallery, but this one stands alone because of an interesting plot of a statue following the husband around the house, plus the suspense and creepy factors are high and can be rather chilling, if you allow it.
