I discovered Thompson back in the mid-90's. Happened upon a first edition paperback of Great Shark Hunt in a used store and was HOOKED. Now I have too many books to count.
I looked this up and this was based on the original American verison which aired late 60's-early 70's timeframe. The version Stateside audiences are more familiar with (hosted by Jim Perry and Summer Bartholomew) was based on the Australian version as Reg Grundy acquired the rights to the show in 1980.
According to a number of sources read including this very informative article (https://www.flapperpress.com/post/half-of-a-sixth-the-sixth-sense-the-night-gallery-syndication-package), The Sixth Sense originally aired as a 60-minute show, but was significantly altered for syndication. Episodes were edited down to a half-hour and recut with Rod Serling Night Gallery intros as both shows were part of the Night Gallery syndication package.
This is the movie with the talking boil! I saw it a long time ago and it was one of those WTF moments that will never pass from my memory. Now I need to relocate and watch again. Thx for posting!

Hilary Thompson, in Tom Lisanti’s "Drive-In Dream Girls: A Galaxy of B-Movie Starlets of the Sixties", discussed the quick demise of the series:
"This was an interesting failure. We filmed right next door to The Partridge Family, which started the same year. Both shows were aimed at the teenage audience. Somehow that show connected and we didn’t. If I were guessing why, I’d say it was because of the actors. I believe that the television audience watches a particular show because they want to spend time with the people. They just didn’t catch on to us particularly–not that I took it as a personal affront. It was the show’s whole chemistry. But I could be wrong. Maybe it was the whole Revolutionary War setting. The audience went, 'huh?' "
Double O Jim Otto is still alive at 84 years old! From wikipedia:
Otto's body was punished greatly during his NFL career, resulting in nearly 74 operations, including 28 on his knee (nine of them during his playing career) and multiple joint replacements. His joints became riddled with arthritis, and he developed debilitating back and neck problems. In his book, "The Pain of Glory" Otto described near-death experiences from medical procedures, including fighting off three life-threatening infections due to complications from his artificial joints. During one six-month stretch, he was without a right knee joint because he had to wait for an infection to heal before another artificial knee could be implanted. Otto eventually had to have his right leg amputated on August 1, 2007. Despite his maladies, Otto says he has no regrets and wouldn't change a thing even if given the opportunity to do it over again.
