Parker's daughter and business associate, Ashley Parker Snider, said portraying Crockett left Parker feeling a responsibility to carry himself with dignity. I wonder if it will have that effect on Billy Bob Thornton?

I recall that Buddy Ebsen played Parker's folksy sidekick, George Russel.

Considering the way we have squandered their sacrifice, Davey and the rest would have done better to reserve a tee time at the local country club and played golf instead.

I loved this show. I was like 5 0r 6 years old when it came out. I had a coonskin hat of course. I am glad to hear Fess Parker is still alive.
The show conveyed simple but important values. How do these values get communincated today. This contemporary absence of values is what true poverty is. The victims never know what they miss.

I have sent a couple of emails to Fess Parker via his website. I couldn't help but tell him how my kids now enjoy his Davy Crockett films and Daniel Boone series. He took time to dictate a response to an administrative assistant to each email.
He is a class act. We don't have many like him in that industry these days.
