My Favorite Martian (1963–1966)
Season 2 Should Be Released on DVD
28 January 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I would like to request season two (1964-65) of "My Favorite Martian" on DVD, due in part to the episode "A Martian Fiddles Around" which depicts Martin feeling burned out over Mrs. Lorelei Brown's violin playing.

When he hears the sound of the instrument, he goes transparent as his mind short circuits. Martin and nephew Tim become involved with Antonio Amalfi, a violin maker, to change the instrument's sound. Johnny initially cuts ties with his father (and the company would've expired). Martin then plays the instrument that makes him vanish and then fears over the rumor (and confesses desperately) that his transparent self is really the ghost of Stradivari, who would come back to tell Amalfi the great secret.

In the end, though, Mr. Amalfi and his son's violin shop stays open due to Martin's help.

This episode originally was broadcast on CBS on Valentine's Day 1965.
