Favorite Surprise Guest? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

They may not be a surprise to all but I enjoy picking out guest stars that I recognize. The last one was Beverly Washburn. I remember her from Leave it to Beaver and Old Yeller. Any that strike you? Oh, I must mention Dennis Mitchell's Dad Henry

Some interesting guest stars on FKB: Greer Garson in season 4, Susan Oliver in season 4, Dick York in season 4, Robert Reed season 6.

Season 4 started yesterday. I will keep an eye open. Yesterday I thought I saw Wally from Ozzie and Harriet but IMDB shows he was not on FKB til 1960

I forgot about Constance Ford (for the young: see Wikipedia), who was in a season 5 episode, shown today on Antenna TV.

I had seen the Robert Reed episode years and years ago, but only over the past couple of years was I able to view the work of Susan Oliver and Dick York. All had leading guest roles in their episodes.

I always enjoy seeing Roberta Shore, but I believe her role was semi-regular as a love interest for Bud.

The Robert Reed episode was early in season 6. It was just on Antenna TV today.

I'm in Season 4 and just watched "Man With a Plan"

Jan Chaney was quite the mover and shaker in her day

S4 E17 "The Rivals" Barbara Eden at 23. Pretty Cool

stevea · 09-27-2017, 09:33 PM

Wow! I'm gonna have to check that episode out. I don't remember Barbara Eden being on FKB. This is an interesting topic, since the guest stars on this show aren't well documented, at least on Wikipedia.

CanICallYouDad · 09-28-2017, 10:17 AM

I saw the Greer Garson and Susan Oliver episodes. Nice to see what Mrs Miniver did after the war :-)

S 4 E 32 A Matter of Pride Marin Balsam

Don't forget Cornel Wilde in Season 3. He just happened to be passing through Springfield and became involved in a minor car accident.

Remember "White Christmas"? General Waverly's grand daughter appeared in Season 4 Episode 2 "The Reluctant Hero"

S6 Ep 5 Lloyd Nolan.

Not really surprise guests, but just remember seeing them along the way.

Robert Vaughn
Denise Alexander [most famous for Days of our Lives and General Hospital]
