Hopping Ghost? I missed this. Was this in the 1968 period when Trask's ghost excersizes Angelique? Please give me a detailed picture of what this looked like, as it sounds really funny.

Yes, I think it was in 1968.  It was one of the chromokey/blue screen things.  I believe the camera off-set bounced up-and-down...

I think to try to get Trask in position... to SI onto the regular set...  the image of Trask bounced up-and-down as the camera positioned Trask in the other set... and, he BOUNCED up and down.  It was really funny... maybe even funnier than me trying to explain it!

This does sound really funny. ;D   I have to get some money saved up so I can buy some more of the DVDs.

I have only seen sporadic episodes from 1968. So, I don't have an opinion about the Adam and Eve, Cassandra Dream Curse, or Vicki and Jeff storylines. Although I did catch some of the 2nd Vicki stuff and Eww, was that icky.
