On lots of Fedderson's The Millionaire episodes, an actor appeared who went on to do work on My Three Sons. How about eps where we can make a couple of actor connections, or more?

In the Season 1 Millionaire ep "The Betty Jane Ryan Story" (3/16/1955), John Howard is featured as a P.I. -- we see him later working in the office with Steve often on M3S. Also appearing is Richard Garland, who was married to Beverly Garland fairly briefly in the 1950s. The ep aired today on Decades.

This was Howard's only Millionaire episode; Garland also appeared in a 1958 one.

What about John Gallaudet? On M3S he played the judge at Ernie's adoption, Steve's boss in Calif., and Probably Sudsy's dad once, in early episodes.

I love "The Millionaire" TV series, lucky enough to have 8 totally uncut episodes from film in excellent condition.

More seems lost TV forever....Seems a classic digi should pick it up as it was syndicated for decades.

Here in NY it aired on WOR-TV Channel 9

My episodes come from mid 1980's airings on station WTZA/Kingston, NY Channel 62 3/4 inch umatic tape sent from viacom s to the station. They never asked for them to return them so yes i had a friend that tipped me off when WTZA was about to throw them away! So off I went to retrieve to keep our lost TV Heritage ALIVE! LOL

Funny I loved all the popular Fedderson shows obviously My Three Sons & Family Affair!

Hey, I've got a 16mm print of that show myself! I believe its S05 E32, "Millionaire Gilbert Burton". It's an uncut print from Viacom.

I believe Decades still airs "The Millionaire" weekdays from 6am-7:00am ET.

Decades has also been airing a 2nd episode in the 6:30 - 7 a.m. slot, though your local channel may have alternate programming.

Oops, I meant 6am-7am; I just forgot to type that.

Just a shout out to you my friend and your avatar of the lovely Miss Poovie! So many blondes to love in the 60's but Tina "Katie Douglas" Cole was/is always my number 1! LOL

Thank you, much appreciated!

Yes, Tina is high on many lists I would guess, mine included... Have you ever seen her appearance on The Rookies, '73 I think? Very interesting. I was also watching the reunion of M3S with the Partridge Family recently and I'll tell you, quite hot -- it's no surprise then that Don Grady has said that he really fell for Tina from that re-meeting. Life imitates art somewhat though, as far as the hesitation from one side or the other...

YES and I even "suffer" through King Family Specials....LOL.....Have you seen her in her Adam-12 appearance. I once got to meet her in the 90's, she signed a TV Guide for me and cast photo, stupidly I don't have any pix of my meeting.

Thanks for the tip, the Adam-12 is one I don't recall having seen -- I'll be tracking when Tina's episode is due, you can bet. That's a coincidence that you mention the King Family because I was thinking about starting a thread here collecting images of the "Four King Cousins," Tina's little group:

thanks, absolutely stunning pix of tina during king cousin years, the adam-12 episode is in the 6th or 7th season and she plays an airport attendant.

and sure you know that all the king family specials are out on dvd, tho tina isn't featured enough! LOL
