I don't know how many of you receive METV, we do in Central PA, and a friend who is an avid fan of the network informed me today that WCIU-Chicago's "Svengoolie", who has a Saturday evening "thriller/chiller/sci-fi" movie show on METV and WCIU suffered what sounds like a fairly severe heart ailment last weekend. He's probably the last of the "Chiller Theater" hosts left, and that's a damn shame.
