Today we take another look at “Cold Target,” the episode of The New Mike Hammer that first aired on December 1, 1984. Timothy appears in his only recurring role on a television series, that of reformed criminal Kenny the Knife.

Kenny first showed up, much to Hammer’s (Stacy Keach) chagrin, in the episode “Satan, Cyanide and Murder” (4.14.84). It’s too bad that “Cold Target” was his second and final appearance in the series. An official commercial release of Hammer would be a most welcome addition to our collection. For now we must make do with substandard screen shots obviously created from well-worn VHS tapes.

Whoa, I’ve really been slacking this week! My apologies, folks. I always tend to go into hibernation mode during this time of year. However, let’s remedy that with another look at Kenny the Knife, the reformed criminal of “Satan, Cyanide and Murder”. That was the episode of The New Mike Hammer that was first broadcast on April 14, 1984. Kenny’s sudden appearance in Hammer’s (Stacy Keach) back seat was not expected and certainly not appreciated.

Kenny turned up again in the series later that year in “Cold Target,” making this Timothy’s only recurring television role. Unfortunately, further appearances were not forthcoming.

Our pic of the day takes another look at Timothy’s brief appearance in The New Mike Hammer episode “Satan, Cyanide and Murder.” It was first broadcast on April 14, 1984. Just released from prison, Kenny the Knife is paying  Hammer (Stacy Keach) an unexpected visit from the back seat of Hammer’s car.

Kenny was memorable enough that he became a recurring character (even if only once), returning later that year in the episode “Cold Target.” It’s too bad that’s the only other appearance he got in the series. He’s pretty funny.

Happy Monday! Our pic for today is from the second episode of The New Mike Hammer television series that Tim appeared in, with Stacy Keach in the title role. The episode is “Cold Target,” first airing on December 1, 1984. Tim reprises the role of Kenny the Knife, the reformed killer who functions as Hammer’s “man on the street.”

Kenny gets a lot more screen time in this episode than he did in the one that introduced him, “Satan, Cyanide and Murder.” It’s too bad he didn’t become more of a recurring character.

Our pic for today is from the detective series The New Mike Hammer, starring Stacy Keach in the title role. The episode is “Satan, Cyanide and Murder” (I wish I could tell you that it lives up to such a fabulous title, but it really doesn’t), which first aired on April 14, 1984. Tim is Kenny the Knife, who just got out of the slammer (Hammer put him there) and pops up in Hammer’s back seat to let him know how much he appreciated what he did for him. No, really – he’s got religion now.

I apologize for the poor quality of the pic; it obviously came from a well-worn videotape. The look on Keach’s face throughout the scene is priceless: “You’re gonna kill me, aren’t you? Please tell me you’re not gonna kill me.” Kenny appeared again in a later episode, “Cold Target.”
