    Frederick Hubbard Gwynne was an American actor, artist and author. He was best known for his roles in the 1960s television sitcoms Car 54, Where Are You? as Francis Muldoon and as Herman Munster in The Munsters, as well as his later film roles in The Cotton Club, Pet Sematary and My Cousin Vinny.
    The CBS Mystery Theater (a.k.a. Radio Mystery Theater and Mystery Theater, sometimes abbreviated as CBSRMT) is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed.
    The format was similar to that of classic old time radio shows like The Mysterious Traveler and The Whistler, in that the episodes were introduced by host E. G. Marshall who provided pithy wisdom and commentary throughout. Unlike the hosts of those earlier programs, Marshall is fully mortal, merely someone whose heightened insight and erudition plunge the listener into the world of the macabre (in a manner similar to that of "The Man in Black" on yet another old time radio program, Suspense).

    Fred Gywnne is to me the greatest OTR actor ever. So flexible, so detailed, and never took a story off. He was one of a kind. Made every episode special.

      I cudnt have said it better myself. Fred and Robert Dryden in my humble opinion were the two best actors of Cbsrmt. This was such a brilliantly done show and being in England had never heard of this and other staples of American telly!! Thanx to UA-cam and the legends that upload these precious gems for our perusal and for that 'we salute u!!!!'

      Nope... in the 70s I listened to these OTRs on KOMA radio. They were wonderful then, and they're especially wonderful now in 2023. Loved Mr Fred Gwynn in these CBSRMTs. Also loved him as the inimitable judge in the movie My Cousin Vinny. He was absolutely brilliant in that role. As for his Hermann Munster work, he was The Best part of that show. Thē Bést! But his part in My Cousin Vinny? It was a stellar performance. Loved him so much. 💐

    Regarding The Slave: I began listening to CBS RMT while I was in my mid-20s; I will be 76 y/o next month. I am an African-American student of history, so the subject of the 'Particular Institution" is well known to me, but this was the one and only episode I found to be completely ridiculous: the characters, the dialogue, the story line, the beginning, the middle and the end was so silly that it wasn't funny; it was pitiful.

    The second show was absolutely boring and horribly written, waste of time. Won’t continue with this series as the others are for the most part wonderful.
