Oh, you didn't know Howard Morris could do drama?
Better known for his comic stylings (Your Show of Shows, The Andy Griffith Show) and his later cartoon work (the Beetle Bailey shorts for King Features were a few months away), Morris landed a star turn on Thriller in 1962, working with director Ida Lupino.
"The Lethal Ladies" is two vignettes with the same theme, as host Boris Karloff will explain. Jackie Joseph, a couple of years removed from "Little Shop of Horrors", appears at the 37 minute mark to interact with Morris in the 2nd of the two vignettes.
I'll have to look up Morris' IMDB page to see if he did any more drama during the course of his acting career.
