Here is the NBC cast photo that you put in the photo gallery. Who is that standing behind Ellen?

Dr. Jazz · 08-09-2004, 04:15 PM

I know who that is behind Ellen & so does Miss Vicki, BUT you asked jterry, so. . . . .

jterry · 08-09-2004, 04:38 PM

That is Claude Cainmaker (that jackass

)

PZelda · 08-09-2004, 06:37 PM

Yeah, it is. Geoffrey Lewis.

That's a rare color NBC promo pic from MF. It was most likely from an episode where Geoffrey made a guest appearance.

I can't think of whicih one it could be, though.

And if you had read more carefully, you would have seen this:

You are bidding on a near mint condition color 8x10" promo photo from the television series, "Mama's Family" starring Betty White, Rue McClanahan, Vickie Lawrence, Ken Berry, Geoffrey Lewis, Karen Argood, and Eric Brown. Thanks for looking!

No, that is not Geoffrey Lewis! I have been watching him in movies for 30 years and whoever posted that info on Ebay is wrong!
Here is a pic of him as I know him.

You can see this is a totally different person! Geoffrey is a fine character actor who is easily recognizable. He is Juliette Lewis's Father. Maybe the guy in the pic is a director or something. I even looked at that photo with my magnifier and it is definitely NOT Geoffrey Lewis!

Well then I don't have any idea, although that guy does have a strong resemblence to Bubba.

The thing of it is...Bubba didn't appear on MF til the syndicated years.

Yeah, when I first glanced at that pic I thought that it might be Bubba. But it couldn't be! It is probably an actor who appeared on the show at the time the pic was taken and he was included. But he doesn't look familiar.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I can tell you with 100% certainty that it is Geoffrey Lewis in the picture. The picture was taken during the filming of the episode where Vint pawns Mama's silver. In the picture, Geoffrey is wearing that hawaiian-style shirt that Claude had on when he called Vint from jail. That is also the only episode that I recall seeing Fran in that purple dress that Rue's wearing in the picture. She wears it during the first scene.

I know that Geoffrey was in that episode but that is not him in that pic! Ok, maybe that is Geoffrey's stand-in?

Penny Lane · 08-10-2004, 09:52 AM

I found a better pic of him. Compare the photos. I am still convinced that these are 2 different people.

PZelda · 08-10-2004, 10:28 AM

Now I'm confuzzled.

Sorry! Me too!

jterry · 08-10-2004, 12:03 PM

I'm 99% sure that is him in the photo, but I could be wrong...

Dr. Jazz · 08-10-2004, 03:24 PM

IT IS HIM. If I were a bettin' man, I'd lay money on it. I know Claude Cainmaker when I see him
