* I remember Mar Poppins as a school library book that little girls read so I didn't go to the movie. However years later when I saw it on TV I was amazed at what a great movie it was. ☺
10 of 13! 10, I had no clue. 11 surprised me. And 12 was so obscure it was almost unfair.
7 out of 13.

10/13!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
10/13. The Rifleman was set for a sixth season, which would kick off with Lucas and Lou getting married. Patricia Blair, Paul Fix, and Johnny Crawford had all signed their contracts. But Chuck Connors’ new wife thought he was above doing westerns and wanted him in a more sophisticated role where he could wear a suit and tie. So he quit The Rifleman and immediately signed to do the crime show “Arrest and Trial,” where he played a defense lawyer in a suit. But that show was canceled after one season.
And had Chuck stayed for another Rifleman season, the show was being expanded to hour long episodes and was to be filmed in color. It was to be another log running series like Bonanza. But it never happened. 😪
