This is one from my childhood collection. Ahhh . . . starring Fred Gwynne. A darn near hysterical housewife turns to an actor detective to help solve the mystery of her husbands disappearance. The police aren't working fast anough to suit her. The actor does the job TOO well . . . . A great "fun" RMT w/ a happy (although predictable) ending. Check it out!

I was getting aggravated with the too common "women are stupid" motif, but then it turned out to be a part of the solution. Good story, good character by FG.
