Interesting strange tale

I just begin to Watch THE WHISTLER TV series. I find it very interesting, up to now. Nearly as good as Alfred Hitchcock Présents. Different stories with different actors for each episode. Here we Watch an ordinary man, an insurance clerk, who suddenly becomes thru with everything around him: his job, his daily and deadly routine, his family; everything. A man in search of happiness. An ordinary tale in which many of us could recognize themselves. Some camera set ups are very well made, such as this one where our lead speaks to his horrible wife arguing with him, around the supper table. I won't spoil the story any further. But it's Worth, I assure you.

I crave for the rest of the WHISTLER TV show.

Trivia
When one of the characters says, "I am leaving for Reno in the morning!", they are referring to Reno, Nevada which is known as "The Divorce Capital of the World".
