Hail To The Chief
|
Told you Edward did a LOT of stuff! Here are some of my favorite pics.
|
"Dick Powell-Reynolds Aluminum Show" Burke's Law Pilot"
Edward getting physical with actor Dean Jones(Det. Phil Winslow) in the pilot for "Burke's Law" which later starred Gene Barry. Edward, here playing handball, is homicide detective Joe Nolan with a great sense of humor even in the midst of murder. In real life, Edward was an athlete. While attending the private Northwood School in Upstate New York as a teen, Edward was on the ski jump team. This is the 2nd time Edward works with actor Jack Carson(Mr. Fairchild), the 1st was in the film "The Tattered Dress"(Sheriff Nick Hoak, Edward as reporter Ralph Adams). This is also Edward's 2nd time working with Alvy Moore(reporter), the 1st was in the film "Designing Woman"(as Luke Coslow also a reporter, Edward as mobster Martin J. Daylor). The show was produced by Aaron Spelling. This is the 4th time Edward works with Powell, the 1st is in "Four Star Performance"(as Jeff a Jazz musician, Edward as barkeep Freddie ) then 2 more times in "Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theater" with Powell only seen as the narrator. Edward played Sheriff Galt in his 1st episode and Marshall Mays in the 2nd. |

"Burke's Law"
Edward as internal affairs investigator Capt. Frank Metcalf who wants to know if one of his men, Det. Tim Tilson(Gary Conway) is involved in a murder. This is Edward's 3rd time working with John Saxon(Lynch). The 1st and 2nd times were in the films "Rock, Pretty Baby"(Jim Daley, Edward played his father Dr. Tom Daley) and it's sequel "Summer Love." |
|
"Trackdown"
Uh Oh, Edward gets carried away, literally, in his final appearance on the series. Here as Adam Madson, he's just been floored(look closely and you'll see a hand grasping at the scruff of his neck) after attacking deputy Ralph(Norman Leavitt). Twice Adam tries to take on the law with his fist, twice he gets knocked out. |

"Four Star Performance"
Here he's a baby-faced bar owner named Freddie in the seedy home of Jazz music, Bourbon Street. He meets up with his old friend Jeff(Dick Powell), a musician who's come back after the death of his girlfriend Ellen. Seems a mutual acquaintance, Danny Paris, promised to look out for Ellen but did so by selling her on the streets so she committed suicide. Edward plays the typical barkeep, a tough guy listening to everyone's sob story. "Four Star Performance" aired in 1955 so this may very well have been Edward's 1st TV appearance. |
|
"Get Smart"
Edward as the Chief, in a steamy liplock with character Gina Paponickolini(Alizia Gur). Surprisingly, Edward did not get the romantic roles. This episode and the episode of "Surfside6" are the only appearances that I know of where Edward is kissing his co-star.

"Bonanza"
Harvey Bufford gets the tar kicked out of him after walking in on some men robbing his store. Turns out one of the outlaws, Clay Renton(Jack Lord) is in love with Leta Malvet(Susan Oliver), the daughter of some unscrupulous townsfolk. She's shunned by all but the Cartwrights, and catches the eye of Bufford. Renton is not too happy about either and decides to pay Bufford back for the kiss he tried to lay on Leta. This is Edward's 1st of 3 "Bonanza" appearances and the 2nd time working with Lorne Greene. The 1st being "The Gift Of Love"(Grant Allan, Edward as Dr. Jim Miller) |
|
"Boris Karloff's Thriller"
Another stand out peformance, here Edward plays Jim Weeks. He's a married man who lives with his wife Doris, stepdaughter Helen(Jody Fair) and his kid brother Larry(Larry Pennell). Jim learns Doris has been cheating and he strangles her. Larry arrives just after the dirty deed and, as Jim is on the verge of tears, Larry admits he knew about the affair. The younger Weeks hatches a plan to get rid of the body so Jim won't go to jail, but Jim is ready to confess his crime. What's great about this show is that Karloff introduces each actor in the beginning. Edward comes out with a very serious look on his face unlike the other cast members. |
