Mannix: The Mouse That Died (1970)
Season 4, Episode 5
2/10
Overacting throughout
22 July 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This one is about Joe being poisoned. It's sheer torture to get through. It features dreadful overacting by everyone involved - Joe, Peggy and Art. Seeing Joe stammering around and throwing things and yelling at everyone is just nauseating, and of course you KNOW how it's going to end, because without Joe there's obviously no show. Also, the constant references to the mouse are just maddening.

The only positive thing in this disaster is there's a pretty good chase scene involving a helicopter, but parts of it are obvious stock footage, so even that wasn't as good as it could have been.

This is a disgraceful episode and the worst one of the season so far.
