Just for my further edification, how does an anti-drug stance square with writing the forward for a book called "Pot Stories For The Soul?"
I'm not familiar with the book, but I'm guessing Ellison wrote the foreward as a reflection on the 1960s and that era, and not from any personal experience with drugs.
Ellison's never been a Carrie Nation in regard to other peoples' use of drugs -- he personally thinks drugs are a waste, but if others want to alter their consciousness, that's their business -- but he, personally, has never had an interest in indulging. So, perhaps "anti-drug" is a misleading label; he's staunchly anti-drug for himself, because he's claimed to have never wanted to screw up his imagination/consciousness with artificial substances.

Well, to steer things back to "Burke's Law" I still think his mind *had* to be cluttered by something to come up with the whole idea of Nancy Kovack's character.  She was too bizarre even by "Burke's Law" standards!

Episode #14, "Who Killed Beau Sparrow?" has an interesting assortment of names.
Seen briefly in the pre-credits sequence is Celeste Yarnall, who would go on to larger roles that have been spotlighted like her "Man From UNCLE" appearance, and of course she's always remembered for her Trek appearance in "The Apple."
Yvonne DeCarlo, one year before "The Munsters" as the victim's widow, who didn't really like him anyway (another remarkable case of how this show managed to spotlight the star of a classic 60s sitcom just one or two years before its debut).
Rosemarie Bowe, attendant to suspect Agnes Moorhead.
The main romance for Burke though in this episode is June Allyson. And since her late husband, Dick Powell, had founded Four Star Productions and played Burke in what was essentially the pilot for the show prior to his tragic death, one might say she was entitled to the substantive female role of the week!

Eric, here's a big, big thank you for the Janice Rule pics. I've been her secret admirer since seeing TZ "Nightmare as a Child." Not a great episode, but I love her face. These new grabs are keepers.
