Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

DKosty123 Anne Jeffreys, Robert Sterling & especially the talented Leo G Carroll made this series special. The casting has a chemistry that shows up with every episode I have seen. While the series was made in the early 1950's, I first saw some of them on Channel 9 New York City being re-run in the late 1970's. Not that it matters, the humor in this series is as timeless as any.Topper was actually a movie series prior to this being made. These shows were so good that I was very unhappy after catching some of them that Channel 9 stopped running them. Since I first saw this, I watched the movies. Even though the movies are very good with Cary Grant - this sitcom takes no second seat to the films.I am hopeful this show does come out on DVD in total plus any extras to be found. I'd like to see all of this one, and I am sure I have only seen a mere handful of them. What I have seen in this series hits the humor mark often.

ctranger1 I fondly recall watching this show on our first Raytheon TV. I also recall laughing at the crazy antics of George and Marion. The special effects were what I remember, quite good for that early time. Would love to see an episode once again and hear that catchy theme music. Neil, the St Bernard was a classic, drinking gin and I recall Cosmo's always battling with his boss, the stuffy Mr Schuyler (spelling may be wrong). I was hoping that the last show would result in the ghosts becoming visible to Mrs. Topper also. Oh well, I guess that was the five year old that i was at that time always believing that everything would always have a happy ending.

Kirasjeri I remember well watching reruns of this series in the Fifties; incredibly, it still shows up in late-night reruns on broadcast TV even today. The special effects were pretty good for 1953, and now they're merely quaint. But the pleasant and good-natured charm of this story about the stodgy banker and the two friendly ghosts of the young marrieds who used to live in his house and were killed by an avalanche is just wonderful. The ghosts alternately help and drive crazy Topper - but they mean well. The chemistry is excellent, helped by Sterling and Jeffreys being married. Anne Jeffreys turned up in the last few years on some shows. . . and must have been drinking a youth serum! Still lovely.

walt-41 One of my best childhood memories, a worthy TV incarnation of the movie classic. It's also where I first learned of Leo G. Carroll, Mr. Waverly in "The Man from Uncle"
