LOVE THIS! Rick thank you for providing extremely unique and Interesting content! For someone like me (recovering from serious illness) it's easy to go stir crazy; having your content provides an escape of intrigue and fun! You consistently find and produce "top shelf" content! Thanks Rick! I sure wish I could become a 💎 level supporter but $$$ is tight, many times I must choose between food or 💉 ⚕️! Some day I will, I feel indebted to you in so many good ways!

Watch a show like "Wild Wild West" back-to-back and you'll see much reuse and redressing of stock sets from week to week, as well as props that keep recurring in slightly altered form. In that show, the same stuntmen showed up as heavies and henchmen week after week, and we never noticed. That was back in the days when studios kept a tight rein on costs and schedules.

IIRC, a first-season episode of The Adventures of Superman, called No Holds Barred, was also shot on the Desilu set. You can see the Mayberry courthouse and the front that was later Floyd's barber shop. So both Superman and Batman were shot on the same set!

As a kid I followed _The Man From UNCLE_ yet never noticed that the MGM Southern Mansion set (red brick with pillars) was reused in so many episodes. Just last week TCM played _When The Boys Meet The Girls_ and there it was again! I only discovered its name in my MGM backlot book the other day (the pictures were in B&W so I missed it). Funny how different camera angles and set dressing can make a set look different.

It wasn’t unusual in tv shows back then for sets from other shows to be seen in the background of popular tv shows. For instance the house from the Munsters appeared in the background of an episode of Leave It to Beaver. Sets from other shows in the background of Wild Wild West or I Dream of Geanie or even Bewitched. If you’ve grown up watching these shows or just like watching them most people do you’ll notice these sets in the background also.
