Sounded like a man of talent and married to another movie start for 60 years. Not common these days. I do not remember him but he is 20 years older than me plus I have never watch much TV.

yes a bit of a cult following that inspired some of the same folk that got into the Bruce Lee films. Goes way back... late 60s early 70s.

Seem like only yesterday promo ads on our small city theater board...quite hero.

Hey I caught an episode of the Rifleman a couple nights ago too. Black and White TV! Every show had a moral lesson. Even further back!

wasn't Billy the first one to state that he was going to take off his boot and kick the dude in the head and he wasn't going to be able to stop him. I remember that it was one of the earliest shows I ever watched at the drivein that I wasn't with my parents.
