Jul 19, 2016

My Mother the Car DVD

Original Air Date: January 11, 1966
Starring: Jerry Van Dyke, Avery Schreiber, Bruno VeSota
Directed by: David Davis

Synopsis: Captain Manzini (Avery Schreiber) uses his connections with the evil organization DURC (crud spelled backwards) to use a hypnotizing drug to force Dave (Jerry Van Dyke) to sell him the Porter.

Kitty Cameo: Because the episode is parodying James Bond films, Captain Manzini asks for help from his U.N.C.L.E. Louie (Bruno VeSota), a Blofeld-style character whose face is never seen but who is petting a white long-haired cat.
