Plot Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Raymond Burr pays a return visit to The Red Skelton Hour in this episode from March 30, 1965. In the main comedy sketch, George Appleby (Red) is so henpecked by wife Clara (Shirley Mitchell) that he sells his soul to Satan (Burr) to regain his bachelorhood. In the musical segment, The Kinks-yes, The Kinks-sing "Got Love If You Want It". In the Silent Spot, Red mimes the role of a self-indulgent millionaire (hardly a stretch, considering Skelton's real-life financial situation).
