Anyone out there remember the old tv show The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis". I remember watching that show as a kid and when Nick at Night had reruns of it several years ago. I really loved that show and who can ever forget Maynard G. Krebs?

Tucker Carlson is the Bob's Big Boy mascot. All he needs is suspenders.

Dobie Gillis was played by Dwayne Hickman.
Maynard G. Krebs was played by Bob Denver.
Zelda Gilroy was played by Sheila James, now Sheila Kuehn (sp), a lesbian California legislator.
Chatsworth Osborn, Jr. was indeed played by Steve Franken, who I believe is now deceased.
And of course, Warren Beatty got his start on that CBS show.

The Chatsworth Osborne, Jr. comparison was perfect. That was a pretty funny show, and Chatty was such a turkey.

They also had Maynard G. Krebbs........... and the statue, The Thinker!

The novel DOBIE GILLIS was written by the very funny Max Shulman.

"Zelda Gilroy" turned out to be a lesbian Cali legislator.

That was an amazing show. That and the Bob Cummings show and The Thin Man, with his Facel Vega...

I remember Dobie Gillis. I especially remember Maynard G. krebs and his fear of work. WORK! My husband and I still mention Maynard occasionally. Of course, our lazy son didn't have a clue why we sometimes called him Maynard.

I remember Dobie Gillis and Maynard, but not Chatsworth at all. I was too young I suppose! :-0

I consider Carlson 'The Herbie Stempel of CNN' - Stempel is the famous tv gameshow loser who cried foul when he took a dive back in the 50s. :-)
