Clint is underrated as an actor.

Their parents kept Clint and Ron so grounded ! Such a loving family !

he was the most adorable sweet little boy actor, just like his brother. Awesome guys and very good child actors who had great parents who didn't let Hollywood corrupt or lead them in the wrong direction.

Great interview! Loved Clint in everything! Great character actor.

I just finished reading The Boys, memoir of Ron and Clint. I really loved it.

In 1996 I was a deputy sheriff in Louisville Kentucky. There was a celebrity golf tournament held there each year, and I was lucky enough to be assigned as an escort for one of the scramble teams- Clint Howard, Ned Beatty, Mikey Jones, and Julie Hagerty! For two days I hung with them, drove them around, and dined with them. I cannot even begin to explain how NICE they all were! Absolute down to earth folks, and SO FRIENDLY!! It was one of the coolest moments in my law enforcement career lol.

Clint is one of the true greats of showbiz, he's a total pro and a nice guy who tells great stories.

Clint Howard will always be the character from star trek, little dude drinking "trania".

He is not taken serious as a actor on Letterman. This night he was a fill-in . It is a shame he never received the respect of most actors working side by side. He was always Ron Howard’s brother.

Many of us grew up watching Clint on TV. Although it's true that he shared the big screen with a giant bear, everyone's favorite show always seemed to be the Andy Griffith Show. His portrayal of Leon is just too funny beyond words. I think many of us guys can relate to wearing a cowboy outfit back when we were kids. In a time before political correctness sucked the life out of everything we say and do each day. I hope this interview wasn't really as short as it appears to be in this clip. Clint, thanks for being a part of our lives. I still watch some of your films and TV Shows from the past.

A three bedroom house in Toluca Lake. If he still has that then he's doing very well.

That was pretty cool. I kinda remember that show gentle Ben. But I lived with my grandparents and they always watched Flipper.

I found this hysterical interview that Clint did online- Actor Clint Howard, brother of director Ron Howard, said he's no longer accepting roles because of his less than leading man looks. "Let's face it, I'm not easy to look at," Howard said from his suite at the Holiday Inn in suburban Indianapolis, where he was playing the lead in Showboat at the Big Top Musical Theater. Casting directors admit Howard was offered many of his jobs because of his rather mutant looking features. Howard was offered a role in the film Mask without even auditioning. The movie focuses on the short life of a teenage boy who suffers from a skull deformity. "Enough is enough. From now on I'm only going to take quality roles, leading roles." Directors in Hollywood have routinely rejected Howard for roles, even joking he had a face that could 'sink a thousand ships.' "They can kiss my dimpled ass from now on," Howard said, revealing his brown teeth. "I can act real good." Howard has enjoyed the good fortune to work over the years, largely due to roles given to him by his brother Ron Howard. A notion Clint Howard refutes. "I didn't get those jobs because I'm his brother. Pure acting skills, that's what it was." Associate producers on several of Ron Howard's films said Clint Howard was never auditioned and nobody else was up for the roles he played. "That's complete bullshit," Howard said, his thick eyebrow wrinkling. "I've heard those rumors. Just go ahead and ask my brother. Hell, I starred in fucking Gentle Ben. Ron wasn't even shit back then. Get your facts straight."

What a career

Can't believe they didn't show a picture of BALOK!!!! Tranya! I relish it!

Not only did he have a full head of hair as a child actor is was blond as hell. Amazing how dark it got as he got older.

Surprise, David Letterman didn’t show that Clint Howard played a space alien on Star Trek with William Shatner

I crossed paths with Clint in Vancouver ...can't say where ...he had a notebook 📓 which I thought was interesting 🎑🧶

I had a gentle Ben lunch box

We need 1978 TV movie "Cotton Candy" released to DVD or at least a clean KZread version....

Ron Howard talked about his sudden & rapid hair loss as a young man and attributed it solely to the stress of being an actor. He said at the very worst moment his thick hair was literally coming out in clumps in his hands while showering. More like it runs in the family with his brother here and father going bald before age 30.

I always felt so sorry for him. One of the most adorable child actors who grew into one of the homeliest adults. (Same thing happened to Dickie Moore) So sad but at least he is financially secure. He actually looks pretty good in his 60's (and Ron has gotten very unattractive). Life can be so strange.

I miss Dave

I always thought he was a dummy. That shows he's a damn good actor!

He seems like such a nice down to Earth fun guy. I hope he's still successful in anything and everything he want to achieve. He's a much more talented actor than he gets credit for. His parents really raised good and decent boys who turned in to good and decent nice men. They also seemed to really care about them as their sons, not as $$$$$$$ like so many parents of kid actors. The parents seemed like good people, too.

He was on Star Trek their original series. And Star Trek enterprise
