What B&W series was supposed to teach people that lots of money could either be a good or a bad thing? The name of one of the characters is one of the classiest I have ever heard.

What series was set in the Pacific and featured a Korean War vet who shuttled various people around on his boat the Tiki III? What was the name of the character and the actor who protrayed him? This actor died in Honolulu a few years ago.

Re: Name that TV show!

Let me try this trivia question. One of this character's nemisis in one episode claims he is rich, rich enough to own a big boat and a big house. Another episode he claims he is a vegeterian.

So who is this character? And the name of the nemisis?

You got me stumped, Helen. Try this one: which series featured 2 astronauts who broke through the speed of light and ended up dodging dinosaurs?

I would venture to guess the very short lived series of the mid 1960s called It's About Time.
