Little House on the Prairie is joining the (American) Tvland lineup and I was looking up various castmembers to see if they had done anything else. I am well caught up with what many of them did, but Matthew Laborteaux must be the most evasive. He just couldn't escape Albert Ingalls. His brother, Patrick, seems to have done rather well on the show, JAG. Maybe Matt just hasn't gotten the same break.
Anyway, I see The Red Hand Gang, a show made for Saturday mornings that I vaguely recall, as it just didn't live up to its amusing expectations. It was too overly serious for this eleven-year-old and for Saturdays of Scooby-Doo, Bugs Bunny and the Superfriends.
It is very surprising to see so many posts from the UK. Clearly the show was taken overseas and went into endless syndication there. It seems this is rather the same thing that was done with other shows, such as Land of the Giants and Time Tunnel.
Had it remained in America after its run, it would have only been "It's Albert Ingalls, It's Albert Ingalls, look at how young he is!" so the show seemed to rarely, if ever, appear in any kind of rerun. Plus it only had one season.
Of this cast listed, Anthony Zerbe has done the most.
James Bond III has several appearances, but is still a standout in only one other childhood appearance, when he was on The Love Boat with Sandy Duncan and Jim Stafford, the country singer.
As I said, it was overly serious for me. I remember a few things (the boy in a mask is recognized by the bad guys by his shirt, he takes off the mask and it was now the girl, James Bond seeing 'a woman with no head!') and so on. There would be a handful of childhood detective groups like this left and right back then.
But to see so many posts from the UK is what is most interesting!
