[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 443558, member: 57984"] Decades ago, I read an interview with Amanda Blake where she bemoaned the series' shift to focusing more on guest stars "like Jean Arthur" in the mid-'60s. I never knew who Jean Arthur was (she was predominantly a stage actress) and never found out. The other day, I was watching an old episode from Season 10 in 1965 with the sound down (there are 635 installments, forgodsake, and I can't be expected to listen to all of them) and in walked a woman into the Long Branch Saloon and, seeing the interaction between Miss Kitty and this guest actress, my first thought was: '[I]Amanda Blake, the actress and not Miss Kitty, doesn't like her --- I wonder if that's Jean Arthur[/I]....' I waited for the closing credits. It was Jean Arthur. Mystery solved. :lol: [/QUOTE]
