"...And If Any Are Frozen, Warm Them!" is a bad episode of "Naked City". It suffers from the guest star's overacting as well as a wedding party that is absolutely insanely stupid.
The show begins with three middle-aged Romanian-Americans committing a bizarre burglary. This is because they steal junk--nothing of any real value. However, while investigating, the police realize that Berco (Nehemiah Persoff) is responsible for the pointless crime. So, Detective Flint is sent to follow Berco even if that means going to Berco's wedding. Once at the wedding, Flint realizes that the earlier burglary was practice--and the three men (including the groom) are about to commit another robbery. But Flint LIKES Berco and tries to stop him by getting him drunk in a drinking contest!!! Yes,...talk about dumb. What also is VERY dumb is Persoff's very, very, very broad performance. He plays with the same subtlety as a four year-old performing for their adoring parents. Yuck! Difficult to watch.
