stop boring me, 2 December 2008
Author: bushwood80 from Jupiter

Other than Junior, this is probably the next weakest Night Gallery episode on season 2, and it stars Geraldine Page and the typical monotone sounding James Gregory. She plays a housewife who thinks her husband is "killing" her, more so with his words than actual actions; Gregory plays the officer who has the burden of hearing her paranoid story, which goes on and on and on to the point of boredom in which I was hoping the episode would soon end. The entire dialog takes place at always exciting(sarcasm)police headquarters, and you can imagine hearing Gregory's drone for 15-20 minutes, and how it can put one to sleep. I almost knew how the show would end after only a few minutes in, and sure enough it happened as I thought it would. The small punch line involves the cop's wife and how he could use Page's husband to kill his own wife, who's also driving him crazy. A real yawner here however.
