I discovered this TV show a couple of months ago. I love it. It reminds me Alfred Hitchcock Presents one, and I think it matches it. No problem. Very inventive, thrilling, with nearly always very good twist endings. Although I agree that all episodes are not one the very same scale. Some are good, perfect, some are let's say less...But I am overall satisfied with this TV show, which lived nearly ten years long.
This episode, which has not been commented yet, is a perfect example of what I talk about some lines above. It begins like some sort of a comedy, but finishes in the total black humour and I would say tragedy.
I won't tell you in detail, in order not to spoil this little gem, but trust me, it's worth. Many stories of this TV series were not around the criminal scheme. Some of them were without murders or horror sequences; only more or less intelligent ideas. Not common at all.
