"Welcome to The McCain Ranch"
Buddy Hackett
Actor | Voice Actor

Buddy Hackett appeared in
two episode of The Rifleman ―
Bloodlines as Daniel
Malakie, the father of the the three disruptive cowboys. I thought he was excellent in this part! I remember when I
first saw him in this role, I couldn't believe my eyes. Buddy
Hackett being a bad guy, yeah right! He did great! He also
was
in The Clarence Bibs Story
as the slow witted
handy man who gets himself into trouble when he accidentally
killed a skilled gunfighter. Denver Pyle and Buddy Hackett appeared together in
Bloodlines and
The Clarence Bibs
Story.
Buddy was offered, but turned down, the role of
Curly
in The Three Stooges.
He was the voice for Scuttle in
The Little Mermaid ― The Little Mermaid 2: Return to the Sea ― Little
Mermaid's Island (TV Series).
Best known as a great comedian but Buddy also had a
great acting ability as he had proven over and over again.
I got this e-mail from a friend/fan.....I wrote to Buddy ...it
must have been at least four or five years ago....and I told him
how I liked him and I commented how he played such a good rat on
The Rifleman...he did write me back and said he had a
lot of fun doing that part...and that he had kept in touch with
Chuck Connors.
