Anyone remember the name of a TV horror anthology series set in a gentleman's club? (lemmings.world)

It was black and white but maybe from the 60s? Each week was up to 3 people telling a different horror story to their fellow club members.

It routinely baffles me when folks think that copy-pasting crap into and out of a chatbot somehow contributes to a conversation. It's like half a step up from telling everyone about the dreams you had last night

I added three possible answers. One OP thinks may be correct. Based on VERY little information.

You and a few others complained because I was open about how I got that answer. How foolish of me to query a tool that’s ingested every movie / tv database on the internet.

From where I’m standing only one person added to this conversation.

To be fair, LLMs are very good at this sort of associative lookup. But I agree that it doesn't add much to thr conversation. It's like the modern equivalent of letmegooglethatforyou

doesn’t add to the conversation

I provided a response and 3 possible answers.

All you added to this conversation was a complaint. Thank you for your contribution.

You copy pasted 3 possible answers from the font of infinite possible answers. OP could have done the same themselves but chose to ask humans.

Another incredible contribution to the conversation. Thanks bud.

OP could have done the same themselves but chose to ask humans.

Did they though? They didn’t even provide which country the show aired in. Doesn’t exactly look like a thoroughly aired out question from OP.
