Lt. Tom Forbes

So, Tom Jennings is gone, correct?

Does anyone know how they got him to stay on for ??longer?? to do this re-do of Lt. Nathan Forbes?

Thanks,

Patti

Yes, but I think you meant to ask if Joe Haskell is gone.  Tom and Chris Jennings were played by Don Briscoe, and Joel Crothers played Nathan Forbes and Joe Haskell.

At this point Joel Crothers has already left the show.  The final episode he taped was #658.  The appearance of Nathan Forbes in the current montage for #662 & #663 is actually flashbacks taken from 1796 eps.

Joel Crothers appeared on the return to 1796 episodes live, not in tape flashback.

Ah, thank you, Joey!  I see now that the events played out differently.  Thanks again for the correction.
