You are probably at least 55 if that name rings a bell. I hadn't thought of that TV character in a long time until I was driving down a side street in a small town and saw a sign proclaiming the nearby house to be the boyhood home of the actor who made a specific TV show into a #1 ranking.

Who was the actor?
What was the name of the TV show?
Where in the world was I when I saw the sign?
What other famous actor accidentally shot this actor in real life?

I won't give away the answers here, because I looked them up. But it was worthwhile to find on IMDb that he was in 24 movies that came out in 1936.

Cheers,
Henry

Just going on memory:

"head 'em up, move 'em out"?

"rollin' rollin' rollin', keep those doggies rollin'?"

1. Ward Bond
2. Wagon Train
3. Don't know
4. Don't know

Rollin', rollin' rollin' was the theme for "Rawhide."

Didn't have to look it up, but I will now.

Oh, and I'm probably at least 55.

Just guessing about this one, but they were long-times friends and frat brothers (Sigma Chi) from USC. Ward Bond and Marion Morrison made a bunch of movies together. My favorite with these 2 is "The Searchers".
