[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 92562, member: 8"] I wonder why. Not that there's anything wrong with it (peeks at IMDB - Christina "Flamingo Road" Raines was Nancy Irving? Hadn't even noticed this!). Or did these stories have so many American nieces and au-pairs? Hammer House Of Mystery And Suspense (the sister show of Hammer House Of Horror) did this too. And while I enjoyed watching those actors (Dirk Benedict, Mary Crosby, Deborah Raffin etc) I don't think it made the stories look better. Or maybe it did...maybe that was exactly [I]why[/I] they hired those pretty Americans. Donna Mills is beautiful and a very good actress, but was she famous at the time she appeared in thriller? To me, it didn't seem like those Special Guest Star stints they did on the 80s American shows (Hotel, Murder She Wrote etc). Or was it (irony, irony!) because they wanted to have some [B]un-familiar[/B] faces on Thriller? [/QUOTE]
