Writers Bob Carroll Jr, Madelyn Pugh, and Jess Oppenheimer, the future brain trust behind I Love Lucy, go over a My Favorite Husband script with star Lucille Ball Ball and co-star Richard Denning rehearse a MFH script. A very rare photo of a bespectacled Lucy.

Gunsmoke (1952-61), starring William Conrad, Georgia Ellis, Howard McNear, and Parley Baer Something about this pic of Conrad as Matt Dillon just doesn't seem quite right Note Parley Baer is wearing a gun. I don't believe Dennis Weaver wore one on the TV show, at least regularly. A table read-through:

And Conrad is reputed to be faster on the draw than anyone else -- on radio. He was known as 'the Glenn Ford of the airwaves.'

You may have a point there. Just one question -- who's he?

No wonder Agnes would collapse from exhaustion after each of her several 'Suspense' performances of it.

Trailer for The Big Clock (1948). Features Suspense director Anton Leader and Art Gilmore, the King of Trailer Voiceovers (he supposedly did over 3,000 of them) playing the Suspense announcer (although he never actually did that in reality).

Richard KimbleTrue, but his steely eyed, cold demeanor in this particular photo, is all business. And he had the perfect voice for radio. To be honest, I can’t recall an episode in which Chester ever wore a gun. Though occasionally he would pick up a rifle or a shotgun if trouble were expected. The role of Chester differed a bit from his replacement Festus. Chester was simply Matt Dillon’s assistant, to where Festus was an actual deputized staff member. My, Georgia Ellis was quite pretty! More so than Amanda Blake in my opinion. Though in the earlier episodes, Amanda Blake was decent looking.
