Denver Pyle In Superman

[Tania]

Was bored and found out that Denver was in an episode of Superman.

The mid-50s certainly were simper times in TV! I had to watch the episode twice to recognize Denver.



I'm sure the dialogue/plot must've been one of the inspirations for 'Police Squad'. See for yourself below - Denver doesn't appear until about 20 minutes in.

Wow! He just barely looks like Uncle Jesse!!

Thanks for posting this Tania. I turned 58 today and Denver was 59 when Dukes started so I'm on my way to being just like my hero Uncle Jesse.

I should've remembered that your birthday was a week after John's. Happy Birthday, Roger.

That's a great find.  I didn't know Denver was in Superman.  He was also in a few episodes of the Andy Griffith Show.

Happy Birthday Roger!  

[Hobie Hartkins]

Happy birthday Roger! I hope you have a good one and many more!!

[RogerDuke]

Yep, it was a good birthday. Since it was Sunday I didn't have to work so that helped! Thanks for the well wishes.

I posted a couple of videos and a couple of screengrabs of Denver in the Andy Griffith Show here.
