All I know of MANNIX is that it's Cliff Booth's favorite TV show in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (a film, though, which is not Phelps' favorite).
Also, who is the twirling girl in the opening credits? Was that scene ever in an actual episode?
Wait, I've seen OUTH twice. I LOVED it and would watch it every night if Mr. Birri permitted it. It is chock-full of pop culture candy, but I missed this bon-bon. In what scene does Cliff profess his love for MANNIX!? Any film that shows love for that show and brings back Paul Revere and the Raiders is aces! As an aside, Mr. Birri and I eagerly await the TV show that will someday be Bounty Law!

IIRC, it's in the scene when Cliff first comes home to his "pad." Cliff is dumping dog food into his pooch's doggie bowl. On the same counter there's a small TV playing the opening credits to Mannix (probably S2).
From the "Stupid Questions" thread, April 21, 2020:
Since its appearance in Tarantino's Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood, how many millions of Millennials and GenZers are now utterly and totally obsessed with Mannix?
I'm "certain" the Millennial and GenZ "obsession" with Mannix is well underway!

The twirling blonde in the opening credits is also the blonde who kisses Joe in the opening credits. She's Thordis Brandt. The twirling shot is an outtake from the 1st season episode THEN THE DRINK TAKES THE MAN. She appears in the 2nd season episode PRESSURE POINT, playing Miss Hampstead.
How many times did Woodrow Parfrey show up on Mannix as an informant based in either a hovel of an office or rundown studio, and heavily boozing in both?
Under makeup, Parfrey was one of the ape judges in "Planet Of The Apes".

And in case it hasn't been mentioned, Walton Goggins' character in The Hateful Eight is 'Sheriff Chris Mannix.'
