Suspense (1949–1954)
A couple of Eps

Warning: Spoilers
Suspense had the niceness of taking its audience into many countries ….

WOMAN IN LOVE is a story from the '50s communist Hungary—as often, the name of the protagonist is a funny one—Alexia Constancia, for a Hungarian babe …. Alexia wants to rejoin her Swedish fiancé; the asset of this episode is a small role by Newman as a subversive military. Newman is especially wooden, isn't he?

In MONSIEUR VIDOCQ, the Parisian characters speak English with a strong French accent. It could be called a piece of rubbish Holmesploitation—and we remember that Doyle read Gaboriau …. Otherwise, it's a nasty, silly defamatory piece. Van Rooten is nice as Vidocq.
