S1, episodes 2 and 3

1.2.

AH's introduction is still just standing and talking to the camera - the props are yet to come. We hear the unmistakable voice of John Forsythe narrating this episode. He's our protagonist, a composer/conductor returning from France to his family after four years. Cloris Leachman appears as well. The twist is broader this time.

1.3. 

After two decent episodes, we have to suffer through a lame western-themed one, perhaps the worst of Season 1. AH does his intro with a gun (his first prop). “Precisely why I don’t care for Russian Roulette, I never win.” 

Couple of cowboys in a showdown with a woman innkeeper trying to keep them apart. The accents are comical to contemporary ears and the ending is, for me, dumb. “That was disappointing, wasn’t it," says AH afterwards. Yes, it was.
