That darn Fronk. He is in M3S too? He was like a cheap date. Got passed around and went everywhere.

Sorry, not sorry, I cannot stand him. Geez.

He grosses out a lot of people. AFAIK, this is his only M3S appearance. And it's pretty brief.

I didn't recognize him at first, but once he opened his pie hole...
Good, glad to hear I only have to endure him once in the show.

Polly & Chip's honeymoon episode is "must-see-TV" for me because Veronica Cartwright is in it, talking with the newlyweds.

Here's Veronica:

Thats who she is. I thought she looked familiar, but without the long hair I didn't place her.

Me neither--thanks!

Ms. Cartwright adopted the short hairstyle sometime after her 1969 appearances
on Dragnet and Family Affair, the M3S episode being from Nov. 1970. Here is
how she looked on Dragnet in '69, I'm practically crazy-nuts about this longer
style for her:

Aside from the M3S episode, I mostly associate Veronica's short hair
looks with her risqué 1975 film Inserts:

I believe the guy who played her husband was actually her husband in real life, at the time.

Another thing I learned tonight! He had a kind-of creepy role, and had a quick turnaround at the end.

For those who don't know, she was on Leave it to Beaver as a child actor. She played Violet Rutherford in a couple of episodes. And in the final season they had her play another character as a one-shot, Peggy Mcintosh.

I was just reading today that Veronica had 2 divorces, with her 3rd husband passing away.

Richard Gates is listed as her 1st husband, and is indeed credited as her character's spouse in the M3S episode -- excellent catch!
