General Electric Theater


General Electric Theater was a TV series that ran from 1953 to 1962. I have to admit I've never seen an episode so I'm writing this with little info aside from Wikipedia (gasp) or IMDb. It was an anthology type of show that was 30 minutes long. During it's run, it featured episodes set in Antiquity. Or Bible stories, like this one called THE OTHER WISE MAN, or ABSALOM, MY SON. I wonder if these episode are available anywhere. I'd like to see these old episodes, no matter how theatrical they are. 

Addendun: I swear I searched THE OTHER WISE MAN on Google and nothing showed up and now it does. This episode can be seen on Youtube. Great for the Christmas season!

That's the prolific character actor Harry Townes on the right, holding the scroll.
