Ripley's Incredible TV remake fails to captivate viewers
A critical take notes that Ripley's Believe It Or Not on WIXT Sunday fails due to dull segments and pretentious delivery by Jack Palance. It cites Denmark marshland reenactments and the Franz Josef skull as weak fare, while praising two pieces on Stradivarius violins and a strobe photography exhibit as more engaging. The review criticizes the program for glorifying the mundane and misplacing tone ahead of a stronger CBS lineup.
