    James, your ability to distinguish “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” from the “Alfred Hitchcock Hour” was pretty impressive.

    I’ve been binging both shows lately. When “Presents” and “Hour” were in their first runs, my mom wouldn’t let me watch them. “You’re too young,” she would say.

    If I didn’t know any better, I’d say that my nearly obsessive desire to watch episode after episode stems from a decades long resentment at thriller gratification denied.

    Speaking of “Thriller”, have you watched any episodes of that 1960-62 series? Like the Hitchcock offerings, it’s available free on ROKU “live” TV.

    I’ve only watched the first season, but the writing holds up quite well—if you can suffer through the schmaltzy Boris Karloff introductions.

    There were UK and US versions of "Thriller." I have them both.

    Egg price check: 1/2 dozen medium eggs are going for about $1.15 — in Japan! FJB!
