Sadly, we mark the passing of two of our heroes: ARNOLD STANG, nerd par excellence and the voice of Top Cat; and the epitome of cool as Amos Burke and Bat Masterson, GENE BARRY. Not only do we celebrate their achievements in prose, but this month’s VIDEO FILE is nothing less than a tribute to their work in film and television. Check out the Burke’s Law clip of Annette Funicello cast against type—for the only time in her career, as far as we could determine—as a go-go dancer and murder suspect in swingin’ ‘60s L.A.
