10 out of 10. Robert Wilke was really an underrated actor from everything like Big Tom to Wild Bill Hickock.

3/10. Just enough to get run out of town! Magnus is one of my favorite episodes. Featuring Robert Easton. Easton was a dialogue coach who specialized in dialects. Especially regional American dialects. He coached major actors. Plus he was on Superman.
This was also a radio episode.

He use to appear on THE TONIGHT SHOW with Johnny Carson occasionally. Carson really got a laygh out of Easton doing his various accents and dialects.

10/10. Guessed on the last one. I guessed that Print would not be Quint’s father. Don’t remember that one. Going to have to make sure to watch it again.

5 of 10. Need a PhD in Gunsmoke to get through that quiz! Come to think of it, I’ve never known anyone named ‘Newly.’ Have you?
