I A HUGE FAN OF THE RIFLEMAN , JOHNNY AND CHUCK SINCE THE SHOW FIRST AIRED ! I MET JOHNNY 2 SUNDAYS AGO AT SCOTTSDALE ARIZONA WESTERN FESTIVAL . JOHNNY IS THE MOST SINCERE , HUMBLE , AND CARING MAN I EVER MET IN MY LIFE !! TAKING TIME AWAY FROM HIS TABLE 2 TALK WITH ME OF THE OLD TV SHOW , WHAT HE'S BEEN DOING AFTER IT ENDED , TOOK HIS PICTURE WITH ME AND JUST TALKED ABOUT LIFE IN GENERAL SINCE WERE BOTH THE SAME AGE . HE'S QUITE THE HAM HERE ON STAGE AND A MAN I'M PROUD NOW 2 CALL MY FRIEND .
I think he's channeling Elmer Feldcamp. But seriously, the more I find out about Johnny Crawford, the more he becomes of the most unique talents ever to COME OUT OF Hollywood. And now he's suffering from Alzheimer. God Bless you, Johnny and your family. (He has musical taste.)
i'm the luckiest because you, Mr. R are my hubby and you took me to this fabulous show because of my early crush and the autograph story. Thank you for another wonderful evening, for posting this video, and for being the most bestest husband a woman could ever imagine. i love you.
I just love this, to see h is still in the limelight and we can enjoy him even longer. I thought he was the greatest ever on The Rifleman. Saw him in person when he and Chuck Connors came to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. I had a big crush on him!
Love it. Like Opie, what a talent. Hope to see you in a big screen movie soon on big bands AND DIRECTED BY "OPIE" Ron Howard. GO BABY BOOMER. JC aka Mark McCain could have be a nice replacement for one the Beatles talent wise and so sad for their unfortunate early deaths.
