Movie Reviews of Alfred Hitchcock Presents - Season Three
Movie Review: Pleasant surprise! (Hadn't seen the show before)
Summary: 5 Stars
I was too young to appreciate the series at the time it originally aired. I occasionally caught bits and pieces of re-runs here and there in the 60s, but never had the situation to watch it on any sort of regular basis in any serious way until now.
I started with this - Season 3, because I read that it was better than the first two, and I was hooked with the first episode. The story of the woman who falls for a puppeteer she sees on stage has one of the all-time great, dark humor surprise endings!! And that is a trademark of the each of these episodes - either a surprise or a deviously clever ending, often with a very dark or macabre humor. Some you can see coming after a certain point and others are complete surprises.
I also love the intros and outros, where Hitch himself always appears. As the consummate director who had a wide knowledge of all aspects of film-making, he came up with some rather elaborate, clever, hard-to-do sets that you could tell took some time and real expertise (and cash) to do well. He took those segments very seriously and worked hard at them, when they could have been just cheap filler.
In those intros and outros (and in the stories themselves), his jaded, wry, cynical, sarcastic humor seems a cut above the idealized, happy themes of so much TV of that era. He also had very funny self-deprecating humor about his weight and looks. And he even puts down the commercials sometimes.
Every single episode of this season is gripping and the show is addictive. I will now start on seasons 1 and 2 and cannot wait for the release of later seasons!
