Ripoff


The "Stingray" episode "The Caper"---that is, first showing what's supposed to happen, then showing what actually happens---was stolen from the 1966 Michael Caine-Shirley MacLaine movie "Gambit."

I'm relatively certain you can find the concept written in books two hundred years ago. Did you just start watching movies or something?

Tag on "Ether," (Season 1, Episode 2) which was straight out of "Coma," starring Michael Douglas. Patients mysteriously dying while undergoing routine procedures. Method of death was tampering with the anesthesia itself. Physicians involved in the cover-up. The only difference (luckily for the producers) is that body parts were not being sold, something else of value was being used. I thought I was watching the film again! LOL!
