RIP

I've never seen the TV show, but the movies were great. All the actors were great in the first one.

I really liked Topper . . . my favorite and most remembered scene is where they are trapped in the cabin after an avalanche.

I used to love that show when I was a kid. Never knew they were actually married. May she RIP.

Another show we used to watch was "The Millionaire."

I will never forget the first time I saw the TV show Topper.
In 1956, we had no TV, and were at the LaFonda hotel in Santa Fe NM. The TV was a black and white pay TV. Drop in a coin and you would get so many hours of TV.

Dad dropped in a coin and we watched Disney’s Rob Roy! A little later on came Topper and right in the middle of the show the TV shut down. Dad didn’t have any more coins either. Bummer.
It was a couple of years later dad finally bought a TV and we saw Topper again.

I had such a crush on Anne Jeffreys from Topper. Good-bye, lady.

RIP. I discovered the TV show while watching late-night TV on the weekends in college, back in the early 80s. It was a terrific show, and later, I saw the movie, which was also great.

“Topper” was probably TV’s first fantasy show, paving the way for programs like “Bewitched”, “I Dream of Jeannie”, “My Favorite Martian”, etc. The premise of these shows were basically the same: The lead character is the only person who knows their co-star’s “secret”, but can’t tell anybody. They are surrounded by suspicious friends/neighbors/coworkers who know that something unusual is going on, but can’t quite figure it out.
