I caught the interview. Mr. Arness was very well spoken. When they panned to a wide shot of the set, I chuckled when I saw he was wearing sneakers. Hey, when you're 83, you wear whatever is comfortable.
His brother is Peter Graves(Mission Impossible). They both have aged very well-must come from good stock.

The Aurness folks come from Sykkylven in West Norway originally. This is near where Rollo, who founded the Norman dynasty in what is now called Normandy, came from in the 10th century.
Kaiser Wilhelm actually sent materials to fix up the town when it burned to the ground in the middle of Winter.
I'd just guess a lot of people from that town left for America about that time.

Peter Graves as the bad guy in "Stalag 17" was just excellent. Got to love Arnett as well.

Never mind me...I got the two actors mixed up with someone else.
Mary Martin is the mother of FKNA J R Ewing. Senility is my name.
