I have a certain fondness for Craig Slocum. I wouldn't call him a great actor, yet I find that his weaknesses add to, rather than detract from, his appeal, probably because he seemed, IMHO, miscast playing tough guys. I can't really imagine CS as someone who served time, but I can imagine him sporting a Nehru jacket and love beads, and partying at the hippest, hottest, 60s nightspot in town.
Does anyone remember Steve Franken as Chatsworth Osborne III on "Dobie Gillis"? That's another sort of character I think CS would have played very well.
Regards,
John
