Marion Hargrove had written him into "The Rivals", which guest starred Roger Moore with Garner and Kelly. By that time Zimbalist's heavy workload on 77 SUNSET STRIP had made him unavailable, and Hargrove re-wrote the Dandy Jim Buckley cameo for Bart Maverick instead. Was a very funny gag either way.<br /><br />Had a big crush on Mr. Zimbalist's daughter in the early 80's thanks to REMINGTON STEELE also. :)<br /><br />Warner Archive recently added a number of 77 SUNSET STRIP to its Warner Archive Instant channel (which you would love, I think; lots of great shows from the 50s through 80s both long running and short lived). Unfortunately, none of the first season and only 3 episodes from the second; most of the episodes are from Seasons 3 through 5. Roger Smith was also very good in STRIP and even wrote a number of shows.Halhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09291930694234773688noreply@blogger.com
