Season 5 - My Fair Buzzi episode

[shipoopi]

The actor playing Hal King looked familiar but cannot find any info on him. I believe his name is Larry Meredith - thanks for any information.

I wished Larry Meredith did the intro to that episode on the Season 5 DVD set. I hope he's still alive and either acting or enjoying life. I think this was his only episode on Here's Lucy.

The only information I see for an actor with that name, other than this Here's Lucy appearance is the following:

The Polar Express 2004; Role: Driver
Low Blow 1986; Role: College Professor

If this is the same person, it would appear his career never really took off as an actor. Or perhaps he's had a career in commercials, voiceover, or ended up doing something entirely different. There are many thousands of actors out there and the vast majority do not (and cannot) make a living as an actor. He could be one of them. Then again, he might not have been an actor at all. I remember reading that the "actress" who appeared as Kim's friend in the episode "Where is My Wandering Mother Tonight?" was just a friend of Lucie Arnaz's and not an actress at all. Similarly, Hazel Pierce, who appeared numerous times on I Love Lucy, The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour and The Lucy Show, was a friend of Lucy's mother, DeDe. She needed to make some money and had a connection through Lucy's mother, so that's how she ended up on the show. Perhaps Larry Meredith was just another non-actor friend of someone in the family.
