The Partridge Family, "The Red Woodloe Story" (Jan. 1, 1971)

Immediately after that episode on ABC, WIlliam Windom appeared in age makeup on That Girl ("That Script") as a former novelist who hadn't written anything since his first wife passed away in 1936. Windom turned 13 in 1936.

50 years ago today, Kim Darby gets mentioned in Doonesbury, for her role in True Grit.

*Sigh.* Bad form, but usually somebody else would've posted in here by now.

Craig Hundley has the honor of subjecting Greg to a standard bit of family sitcom peer pressure:

The Brady Bunch, "Where There's Smoke" (Jan. 8, 1971)

Slap the cuffs on me, I'll go peacefully.

I'm not sure what you did wrong.

Double-posting, I think.

Three in a row. Gotcha. Bad moderator! Bad!

Good God! The Partridge Family is 50???!!

Keye Luke and Ian Wolfe in Mad Love, 1935.

 

[FormerLurker]

I've said it before, I'll say it again; Ian Wolfe was never young.

 

[The Old Mixer]

He looks younger there than anything else I've seen him in. I never would've recognized him.

Suffering a bit of perspiration because his role as the inside man in a diamond exchange heist has been modified to involve rappelling down an elevator shaft:

Hawaii Five-O, "Ten Thousand Diamonds and a Heart" (Jan. 6, 1971)

What's in his left hand? At first glance I thought it was a cell phone, but it wouldn't be a cell phone in 1971.

Appeared to be a notebook. He had his pencil hovering over it just before he pulled out his handkerchief.

Sounds like a riff on Peter Ustinov's character in Topkapi.

Anthony Caruso, Bob Hoy in Deathwatch, an episode of The Streets of San Francisco!

Future Enterprise crewmen Paul Carr and Tony Call take a break from fighting during a 1966 episode of COMBAT!

 

[Henoch]

The Twilight Zone, S5E15, "The Long Morrow": Star crossed lovers make a 40 year mistake starring Mariette Hartley (Zarabeth) and Robert Lansing (Gary Seven). Before leaving on a decades long space mission in suspended animation, astronaut Douglas Stansfield meets a woman and falls in love. She goes on ice (get it?) to wait for her man, while he takes himself off ice and lives in isolation for 40 years so to age as his love. Sad.

I've said it before, I'll say it again; Ian Wolfe was never young.

As I mentioned a while ago, Wolfe was only four years older than Colin Clive, who plays his son in Mad Love.

I think we actually agree with each other.

We do. I was just repeating what I said on this thread a while ago.

Whoops, I forgot that had already been mentioned.
