The Munsters — S01E28 — Movie Star Munster poster

Overview

A pair of con artists want to stage a phony accident as an insurance company scam. All they need is someone to play the part of the victim – preferably a big stupid guy with a face that looks as if it’s been in an accident. When they stumble upon Herman, they realize they’ve found the perfect guy. Posing as a couple of movie producers, they get him to sign an accident policy by pretending it’s a movie contract for a remake of DOUBLE INDEMNITY. As the crooks devise various ways to kill off their leading man, Herman becomes a stuck-up actor.

00:14:01 J.R. told me they're working on a new ending
00:15:05 that copy of The Carpetbaggers. Good morning, all.
00:16:05 Now, Munster, this is the most crucial scene of the whole picture,
00:16:57 and it's, uh... It's late at night.
00:17:44 Oh, my poor Herman!
00:18:36 Huh. Now, suddenly,
00:19:22 Sit down... in the seat.
00:20:22 Now, pay attention. Here.
00:21:28 Say, uh, uh, there's no mother in there,
00:22:25 Always looking at the bright side of things.
