...even though GARY LOCKWOOD and BRADFORD DILLMAN enjoy the distinction of appearing most often as "Barnaby" villains (I think---without checking---they both appeared as villains six times, and both were VERY, VERY good!), my vote for best villain actor goes to ANDREW PRINE, who only did two episodes, but was a memorably psychotic foil who meshed well with the Barnaby character!
shareYa know something -- you're absolutely right about ANDREW PRINE! He used to scare me just coming into my office to chat about nothing. Great actor! Should've worked a lot more. gs
shareSanwords, I posted something off-topic in the NIGHT GALLERY boards, but apropos here: that LEE MERIWETHER may have been the nicest celebrity I'd ever met---at a Comic-Con in 2006---and that I'd doubled back to the end of her long, long line to meet her again, just to tell her that! (I was too star-struck the first time!) No doubt, in your association with BARNABY, you had the chance to have much interaction with her (plus she was also often featured in early series such as THE FUGITIVE, TWELVE O'CLOCK HIGH and THE FBI) Do you not find my assessment to be completely accurate?! (I'd also heard BUDDY EBSEN was quite nice to work with!)
shareJames Olson as The Butterfly Killer was pretty creepy.
shareActress Betty Garrett's son Andrew Parks, in The Murdering Class episode. He looks creepy and sinister on and off camera. Geraldine Brooks held her own as the articulate and long suffering Miss Enwright, headmistress of the exclusive Enwright Prep School.
