  • One afternoon while eating in a Los Angeles restaurant, a man started to walk past my booth (semi-circle type, with me facing forward to the aisle) when he dropped something. He picked up whatever it was, then looked at me. I instantly recognized him as Vince Edwards, and Vince knew that I recognized him. Just a fleeting "look" of acknowledgment between a fan and TV star; he was older and died about 1 year later. Sweet moment.

  • I believe this is from the episode "Goodbye to Blue Elephants and Such" [2/5/64]. Actually, before this opening scene (a rape on a hospital nurse that will soon have dire repercussions for her) and title, there was the "LIfe Cycle" chalkboard drawing, narrated by "Dr. Zorba" {Sam Jaffe}: "Man.....Woman.....Birth.....D­eath.....INFINITY". At :29, an announcer originally added, "'BEN CASEY'...brought to you by-" [insert sponsor I.D. here]. .

  • Calling Dr. Zorba, Dr. Casey. Dr. Zorba, Dr. Casey

  • TAKE EM TO BEN CASEY!!!!! (c) Tommy Devito

  • @TheGeminiStudios I agree. Warner Archives respect their titles and the consumer. They are the best.

  • @hippiegirl58 I loved how Warner's respect to their archives plus people giving commentaries of each movies and series. They're the best.

  • @hippiegirl58 Rumor's been running rampant that Warner Bros' parent company TimeWarner and CBS been talking about merging it's operations for awhile. right now it's just talk.

  • @TheGeminiStudios Hi. Thanks for the info. I wish Warner Archives owned Ben Casey. They are so consumer friendly and release some titles MOD (manufacture on demand),

  • @hippiegirl58 CBS owns the series now.

  • I was a wee little thing back then but boy did I have a crush on this doctor! )

  • @Juliaflo, except "Dr. Kildare" was based on a series of novels and movies produced by M.G.M. that featured Lew Ayres.

  • @illuminatioracle I think...Starring: Vincent Edwards and Gunga Din
