Good Show
MAMA was a well-written show from the early days of television. This episode deals with the subject of scams and con-artists. Scams have gotten more sophisticated, but they are still something to look out for.
A fake fortune teller teams up with a distinguished looking gray haired gentleman to try to cheat Aunt Jenny out of her money.
There is a lot of belief in psychics still today and people who claim to have real psychic ability still manage to cheat people.

Mama and Madam Zodiac (Mama)
Original air date: 1950.
Cast: Ruth Gates (Aunt Jenny).
From IMDB.
Do not forget that this episode was done in 1950; 62 years ago.
This is a very good written; well acted episode. It is a shame that we didn`t have series with simple valor but good valor today. It is a very good old time television.

First Episode?
This series premiered in July of 1949, yet you say this is the first episode and also say it's 1950. Something's wrong here ...
