Tho I think the show jumped the shark when Don Knotts left.

Aug 5 12 1:26 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Yeah, the Griffith Show did jump the shark when Knotts left, and the producers seemed to be in panick mode because after the first attempt to replace him directly was a bust, they figure they needed four replacements instead of one, and the show just seemd to be Griffith talking to guys at Floyd's barber shop. That Jack Dodson was an even bigger wimp in The Getaway. I have to admit if I was in his shoes and he let me get out of the house, I would have gone straight for the police. I would have figured the bad guy would have killed us anyway. The wife had a better chance if the law got there.

Aug 5 12 7:18 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I found this with a blind google search, wimpy leading man of the 1930s, because there seemed to be so many ineffectual types from that era, and this came up. I never heard of the actor nor do I recognize his face. But I agree with the comment he looks wimpy and he has a wimpy name also. I doubt anyone would pay fifty dollars for his autograph even with the Bambi connection. HARDIE ALBRIGHT. Scarce vintage 8x10 double-weight satin finish silver tone chest-up publicity portrait, boldly signed and inscribed in blue fountain pen, "To/Nina/not/Columbus'/Nina/but/mine/Hardie/Albright." Fine condition, with a small stain in the bottom border and a tiny bit of paper loss to the bottom left corner tip. Hardie Albright appeared in more than fifty films between 1931-1946. At his peak in the early 1930s, the rather wimpy leading man appeared in major roles opposite such leading ladies as Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck and Kay Francis, but was increasingly relegated to smaller roles as the years wore on. In 1942, he provided the voice of Bambi in Disney's animated classic. Signed photographs are extremely uncommon. $50 Hardie Albright AKA Hardie Hunter Albrecht Last Edited By: will Aug 5 12 7:27 PM.

I looked around and think I was thinking of Hunky-Donkey. Guy was Don Barclay. Mule was Algebra. Maybe not a genuine wimp--now that I find a pic my memory was jogged some and he was peculiar and did not wish to get kicked by a mule but was not so wimpy. .

Dagwood would appear to be less than formidable at first glance but, he was always ready to engage in fisticuffs. Not a wimpy trait at all. - GJS
