In one of the husband's hit series that he starred in and one of the wife's hit series she starred in, they both were in the same profession. To clarify, that's 2 different hit tv shows, 1 for him, 1 for her.

Thanks Miles, Hope you had a good Thanksgiving. It's A Wonderful World is such a fun film. My well worn tape must be more than 20 years old.

Swinging On A Star - Bing Crosby and the Mitchell Boys Choir - Going My Way - (I've Loved this song since I was a little girl )Would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a muleA mule is an animal with long funny ears
Kicks up at anything he hears
His back is brawny but his brain is weak
He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak
And by the way, if you hate to go to school
You may grow up to be a muleOr would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a pigA pig is an animal with dirt on his face
His shoes are a terrible disgrace
He has no manners when he eats his food
He's fat and lazy and extremely rude
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
You may grow up to be a pigOr would you like to swing on a star
Carry moonbeams home in a jar
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a fishA fish won't do anything, but swim in a brook
He can't write his name or read a book
To fool the people is his only thought
And though he's slippery, he still gets caught
But then if that sort of life is what you wish
You may grow up to be a fishA new kind of jumped up slippery fishAnd all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
Every day you meet quite a few
So you see it's all up to you
You can be better than you are
You could be swingin' on a starSong title that mentions the word LOVE in the title-

Here's one that most TCM fans probably know.
A man is being escorted to prison on a train. He is handcuffed to a police detective. The two men are on the observation platform on the rear of the train when the train starts going over a bridge. In a desperate attempt to escape, the man pulls the detective off the train and the two go tumbling into a river.
Do you know this movie?
Funny, I was just thinking about It's A Wonderful World the other day. James Stewart and Claudette Colbert in a very funny comedy. I have an old tape of the film. It was on TCM a few weeks ago but I didn't get a chance to watch.

This Classic Hollywood couple was unique.
He was one of the founders and owners of a legendary Hollywood landmark, which was immortalized on "I Love Lucy".
A remnant of that Landmark is something edible, which is still popular today.
She was the tall, dark Beautiful Other Woman or vixen in dozens of classic comedies and dramas.
With the Advent of television, she became one of the pioneering female icons, but not in front of the camera.
When you identify this Classic Hollywood couple, please also name his Landmark, one of her classic films and her association with classic TV.
Robert ( Bob) Cobb, founder and owner of the Brown Derby and Gail Patrick. Gail Patrick was the producer for tv's Perry Mason, she was in My Man Godfrey and My Favorite Wife. I Love a Cobb Salad named after Robert
Cobb. The hilarious Brown Derby episode with Bill Holden is one of my favorite episodes on I Love Lucy. btw Princess, Happy Thanksgiving

Is it Ray Walston in My Favorite Martian with Bill Bixby?
Yes, it is Ray Walston and My Favorite Martian. He said he regretted taking the role. although the money was good and he was friends with Bill Bixby but the role made him so recognizable as Uncle Martin that it stalled his career for a few years. He was in Spain and someone called him Uncle Martin and put 2 fingers behind his head as antennas LOL. Good work Peebs, you're up next

Did anyone else think Gaby Rodgers resembled a cross between Barbara Barrie and Guiletta Massina?
This was my first Mike Hammer. I always enjoy Ralph Meeker, Albert Dekker never fails to deliver, and I appreciated the early outre Aldrich touches.
That ending, uh, really blew me away.
I agree and good eye Bronxgirl, very strong resemblance to both. LOL, blew us away and a bang up ending

Even thugh this classic comedy tv show was a hit, the co-star ( Emmy winner for a different show years later)) said that he regretted doing this tv show. He was friends with his co-star and made money but he felt it slowed his career down for years since so many identified him with the role. He had been a supporting actor in quite a few famous films. His co-star had 2 hit tv shows after this show. TV show, and the 2 stars ??

Is it Darryl Hickman and Pamela Lincoln? Who? you say. He was a very busy child actor in the forties and a very busy adult actor from the fifties to the nineties. They were both in a horror movie called "The Tingler" in the late fifties. She did make a few movies, including "Tootsie", but she mainly appeared on some TV soap operas.
Daryl Hickman and Pamela Lincoln are the couple Miles. Yes, a very busy child actor and in some of our favorite classic movies. The Grapes of Wrath, Men of Boys Town, Leave Her To Heaven, The Human Comedy, Keeper of The Flame, The Strange Loves of Martha Ivers are just some of the great films Daryl was in.
Yes, Pamela Lincoln was in Tootsie. She was in over 200 episodes of the soap opera The Doctors. Daryl and Pamela met while they were both in William Castle's The Tingler starring Vincent Price. Thanks for the guess Princess, Miles it's your thread.

Princess, I really hate doing this but that's not the couple. He started out as a child actor, and was in famous films as a child actor. and I mentioned some of the actors he appeared with. Julie is much better known than the actress he was married to. It's a different horror movie.
He was some very famous films, a few won Oscars for the film and the actors that were in the films.

She was a singer and a character actress, who was noted for playing domestics.
He was an actor in film and on radio, noted for playing private detectives and psychiatrists.
Both were noted for memorable roles as voices in Disney animation classics.
And neither one of them was born in the United States.
When you identify this acting couple, please also list at least one film for each.
Sounds like Tom Conway and Queenie Leonard. Tom played the Falcon in 10 of those films, he was the psychiatrist in Cat People., Queenie voiced Princess in 101 Dalmations and was in And Then There Was None

actually agree with what Swithin said because I am one who does a bit of research on many questions that I take part in for this thread and several others, but I made my comment because I feel that there are so few who care to take the time to do likewise. It becomes a three or four person thread. It would be great to get more folks involved. The research can be very informative for classic movie fans.
Miles, I agree with you and Swithin. I've learned so much by doing the research. It's interesting and makes being part of the group more than just playing games with my time.
Princess, it's your turn.

In the 1970's and 1980's the husband had roles in some very popular tv mini-series. Both dealt with American history.
