It's a good story,however it's the same plot with the same actor playing the bad guy as the 1963 episode called "Thunder Man"! I guess it was hard to come up with new ideas after a while. At least they could have gotten a new bad guy! In both episodes the villain whistles a tune as he goes about his killin" which ultimately gives him away. Also the guy is crazy and just can't keep from strangling women even though he is under scrutiny. Still a good show because I like the characters. All the violence is largely just implied so I don't mind if the kids watch it. Try and catch both episodes if you can. They show it all day on TV land.

good episode, except for the review

Another reviewer before me, jlhp23, he nailed it quite right about the whistling Thunder Man and the "New Orleans Woman" tune and the needlessly duplicated shows. Obviously another Bonanza aficionado.
However, the same reviewer than wrote: "All the violence is largely just implied so I don't mind if the kids watch it." I disagree 100%. All violence in all movies and all TV shows is "just implied". Even videos in documentaries about Jack the Ripper or Charles Manson are "just implied". Not cool.
