Where To Watch
Guess how old these stars were when...
Answering the age-old questions!
Some people are born looking 65. Sometimes stars can play younger by decades, or the inverse.
So give it a guess: How old were these stars at different points in their careers? We'll give you a few options to choose from, so don't feel like you need to be an age expert.
It's funny to think about how people have aged differently throughout time. Doesn't it always look like people are older in vintage pictures? Anyway, let us know your score in the comments section below!

Hard to believe Jim Backus was just 51 when Gilligan's Island started. Thought he was much older!

People just looked older in those days. As another example, actor Broderick Crawford was only in his 40s during the run of "Highway Patrol" (he was born in 1911); looking at the show today you'd think he was in his 60s then.
You make a good point. But the "Crawfish" as Robert Mitchum nicknamed him, was one of the
biggest hell raisers and drinkers in the history of Hollywood. He and his wing man Lon
Chaney cleaned out many a bar when challenged by foolish patrons. Many times on Highway
Patrol his fedora is pulled way down in a futile attempt to disguise all the bruises.
His boozing caused his feet to swell, in more than one episode he is wearing tennis shoes!
When he would show up Monday mornings still drunk they would plop him in a chair to do
his lines in his office.

Yes, I read that he was arrested for DUI a couple of times during the run of the show.
I'll keep that in mind if MeTV ever does a part 2 of this quiz.
