Good story Dave. It's always fun to hear these little tidbits. I was at a bank in LA in the 80's when Bob's attempt to cash a check was denied because he had no ID. You know me, I'm Gilligan he said. They said sorry. He got a standing ovation as he sheepishly left the bank.

So when Bob Denver was on Dobie Gillis for a good portion of that series, you still think the network had to squeeze him in to one appearance on Andy Griffith for Bob to be recognized? LOL.
@jdsundstrom
Жыл бұрын
Dobie Gillis had been off the air for a year or so when Bob Denver made his appearance on Andy Griffith.
Bob Denver had the tougher job because he played the lead on his show and was thus featured in most of the scenes. Goober, by comparison, was a supporting character, and truth be told, was really there only because Griffith lost Jim Nabors to The Gomer Pyle Show. I've also read that Denver was nothing at all like his Gilligan character. Denver was a soft-spoken, well-read, intelligent soul who actually was a schoolteacher before getting into acting. So I gotta go with Denver as being the better actor. Just my opinion.

In a drunken brawl, the loser is whoever looks the worse and the end. Let us remember this was not a boxing match between two pros.
For what it's worth, Bob Denver carried two successful shows, The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis (TV Series1959-1963), and Gilligan's Island (TV Series 1964-1967), George Lindsey at best, was a third banana on the Andy Griffith Show, and on Hee Haw (TV Series 1972-1992) Lindsey was part of a cast of many.

Not that I'm an expert on fist fights but what experience I have with a few is they as I suspect this one was fueled by alcohol. When they are fighting ability goes put the window and grabbing and falling on the floor. Few punches that are thrown don't do much and at some point believe it or not both parties come to their senses and if any minor damage was inflicted someone goes for some ice and a towel.
