Hi!
"How smart is the Gillman?"

Live, from the Lincoln Center, it's A Tributary to the Upper Amazon....
You have the right to remain amphibious, if you cannot afford an ichthyologist, the court will appoint one on your behalf.
To the Schwartz and Anderson families who DID lose children: Our sincerest apologies.
Great, I gotta change my name to "Creature of the Edinborough Park Kiddie Pool"!
Creature's got a nice rising fastball. / Please don't attach me to a block and tackle and swing me into a padded palm tree.

Ya think anyone at the Rockefeller Foundation questioned the dynamite line-item?
"There were 4 rats in there when I changed my lights, now there's only 3" ... punk.
Well, I was gonna recite the "Wasteland", but I guess I'll just raise the flag.
"Once there must have been a link between marine and terrestial life." We think it was Manimal.

The real horror was the scene in which John McSmugly and his blond pal pulled that poor woman back and forth, like she was a sentient Cornish Game Hen they were divvying up. >:
Man At His Best, as they say over at Esquire™ magazine. I'll just be in the next room punching a wall for a while.
Socks, sandals and a jumpsuit? Good thing Mike is cute.
I move to declare this officially the most underrated episode right now.

I miss Clayton.
Sadly, this 2nd CFTBL film is still MUCH better than the 3rd entry- The Creature Walks Among Us. In that film the Creature is so humiliated by having his gills removed and being forced to wear coveralls that at the end he drowns himself.

Ha, oldest trick in the book! Sit back and wait for a leftover prehistoric beast to unceremoniously slaughter your romantic rival and then use the ol’, “We can take a leisurely cruise up the river and have dinner in Jacksonville” line to close the deal. If I only had an “Ocean Harbor Buck” for every time I pulled that scam!

"Indeed!"
That always cracks me up.

Bit of a letdown to come into Bill Corbett's puppeteering here after Trace's. But, practice practice practice!

FUN FACT: Director Jack Arnold ALSO helmed the infamous "Chicken of Tomorrow" short featured on Season Seven's "The Brute Man".
Wait a minute... they are going to condition the creature with a bull prod... UNDERWATER?!?!

Man, I always avoided this episode until now since I have a--*ahem*--small, yet, crippling fear of sea life, but I'm glad I managed to cower through it. Finally I get some Pearl backstory!

Those rats KNOW there is a KILLER in the cage with them, LOOK at them! They KNOW, it's ONLY a matter of TIME. Cat's kill for sport, ..... because they can ;) That feline is just WAITING for the lights to go out. Freeze it @ 22:36 you'll see what I mean. That's like having Charles Manson as a roomate

Now the "PUNK" reference makes sense..... That's Clint "Harry Callahan" Eastwood
The second coming of MST3K! I personally think the Sci-Fi seasons were the strongest.

So begins The Season Where The Theme Song Rarely Makes Sense. Pearl doesn't show up until the end of this episode, won't start hunting anyone across the universe for three more episodes, and she and her cronies are ensconced on one planet or another for most of the rest of the season.
Still, I never get tired of the idea of using an old VW bus as a rocket ship.
