you can go to www.imdb.com and type in an actor/actress' name and then it will show you all of the tv shows, movies, etc....that they have been in plus gives all kinds of info on the episode, movie, etc.... I type in the tv show like "The Waltons" & then click on the actor/actress' name. To me that is easier than typing everyone's name individually. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ronnie Claire Edwards starred in the Clint Eastwood/Dirty Harry film "The Dead Pool" in the late eighties. She played a movie critic who gets murdered by some whacko who has a list of celebrities he doesn't like.

So my family & I were watching 'Father of the bride' last night and who should pop up in a scene? The bumbly and layed back EASY JACKSON (Played by Britt Leach) from The Waltons! lol. ;D His uncredited cameo as an Assistant Manager of a Supermarket) with a few speaking parts is roughly 58 minutes and 11 seconds into the film. Thought you all might enjoy knowing this info. A few screenshots are included. i81.photobucket.com/albums/j201/RYJALI/Easy_Jackson_Father_Of_The_Bride.jpgBritt Leachwww.imdb.com/name/nm0494815/RYAN J.

The character who played Yancy Tucker, I think his name was Robert Donner, played Exodor on "Mork and Mindy"He was such a riot on that show. He was so loud and boistorous. He played a religious zealot who was half out of his mind. Also, I may be wrong but wasn't the guy who got struck by lightening 77 times in "The Great Outdoors" the same actor who played Easy Jackson? Maybe someone can verify that.

We have been watching the old Daniel Boone TV series (with Fess Parker). John Crawford showed up as one of the settlers in Boonesboro in the 2nd Season. That surprised me!!

I just watched that episode of Mork & Mindy last week! ;D As soon as he came on screen we were all like "IT'S YANCY TUCKER!" ;D Kinda funny seeing him as a different character. He also played in the movie HOOT which was his last film before he passed away. I'm not sure about your other question, I know the actor who played Easy Jackson was named Britt Leach. check www.imdb.com for his complete list of movies he starred in. RYAN J.

I knew that Robert Donner was on "Mork And Mindy". He has an impressive list of acting credits. I met him at a Walton reunion in 1999. He was so much fun but also a very nice man when he graciously signed his autograph for me.

Niki from the Y & R played the gal whose dad owned the car dealership where Ben worked. I think her and Ben kinda had a little thing going for awhile. I couldn't believe it when I saw her on that show and look at her now...she still looks good, but then make-up, hair and plastic surgery would make any of us look better as we age!

Two great Ralph Waite movies: as Jack Nicholson's snooty brother (in a neck brace!!!!) In the Academy Award nominated film "Five Easy Pieces" and as a blind motel owner in John Sayles' "Sunshine State"

Richard Thomas was excellent as Frances McDormand's husband in the film "Wonderboys" with Michael Douglas and Robert Downey Jr.

Just saw Yancy Tucker in the 1970 John Wayne movie "Chisum" on AMC. He plays an outlaw who killed a rancher, and while being brought back to Lincoln, is ambushed by one of the ranchers hands. The hand was one of the actors from "Alias Smith and Jones", can't think of his name.
