An angel of death, looking like a corporate executive, notifies an elderly pitchman that his time has come, unless, that is, he can qualify for an extension. In the salesman's case, the extension involves making a career topping big pitch.
Slightly whimsical entry. Perhaps that's to lighten a storyline that deals with the possible death of a sweet little girl. Of course, there are no laughs, but Wynn plays sidewalk pitchman Bookman in somewhat whimsical style, while even Mr. Death (Hamilton) softens up toward the end. My guess is the producers wanted to follow up the white-knuckle first episode "Where Is Everybody" with a softer second entry. Note too, the implied references to heaven and hell, which suggests a respect for standard Christian theology, a not irrelevant concern given the series concentration on metaphysical themes. Anyway, Wynn's charming, Hamilton's well-dressed, and little Dillaway is cute.
On the whole, the script is well thought out, with a good ironical ending. And though the 30-minutes may have helped build an audience, it's not particularly memorable, at least in my book.
