Who Killed Laura Podcast Ep 10 Any Relation to the Dwarf

The Who Killed Laura Podcast Episode 10: Any Relation to the Dwarf?

Chris and Scott are back with the latest episode of the podcast, this time looking at Episode 10, aka Season 2, Episode 3, “The Man Behind Glass,” written by Robert Engels and directed by Lesli Linka Glatter. it aired October 13, 1990.

Enjoy the first several minutes, as Chris is confused by two plot points that Scott explains to him without making him look too stupid. Chris gets back on track, arguably, with some observations on how the dark and light sides of both Agents Cooper and Rosenfield may represent David Lynch and his work. Or anyone, really.

In this episode we meet Richard “Dick” Tremayne, played by Ian Buchanan, a veteran of many television shows, but perhaps remembered best as Duke Lavery on General Hospital in the ‘80s, reprising that role from 2012-2015. He also acted in the soap operas Days of Our Lives, The Bold and the Beautiful and All My Children. He has also done voiceover work in three different Batman animated series, a different role each time, and worked again with Frost and Lynch on On the Air as the character Lester Guy.

We note the One Armed Man, Mike Gerard, is a reference to the most famous television character to have just one arm, Prince Stitch-Sleeve from Pee-Wee’s Playhouse. Just kidding. It’s a reference to Lt. Philip Gerard, the dogged detective chasing wrongly accused Richard Kimble for four seasons of The Fugitive (1963-1967).

Lenny Von Dohlen makes his first of a handful of appearances on the series as damnable Harold Smith, the agoraphobic orchid enthusiast with designs on Donna. He reprised that role in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, and lest one thinks we’re being too hard on him by describing him as a creepy actor, note some of his other roles: Blattis. Foster Batterham. Burton Jernigan. DeYancey Clanahan. Clifford Roderick. And yes, Creepy Guy in Hotel.

Thanks for reading, thanks for listening, and please let us know what you think.
