Good catch. Since you didn't make your own question, shall I pinch hit for you?
How about a link to Forrest "call me 'The Anaconda' "Tucker?
By the way, this former F-Troop star was a pre WW2 horse soldier, one of the last.
He sat a horse so well he probably eclipsed every other actor in Hollywood in
that department.

I was thinking of when Tucker appeared with John Hillerman in a "Ellery Queen" episode but your link works as well. Through "Ellery Queen" co-star Hillerman links to many many old Hollywood stars who had appeared on that series but had bought the farm by the time Murder She Wrote debuted years later.

Methinks your connection is the better one, it's direct Tucker working with an MPI alum. You sir, get the multi cannon BOOM! But that does beg the question, can one BOOM their own cannon?
Then again, perhaps we should just let that query end right here . . .

Dennis Dun was in Big Trouble in Little China with James Hong who was in Blood Alley with John Wayne who was in El Dorado with Robert Mitchum who was in The Sundowners with John Meillon who was in Skippy with Tony Bonner who was in Quigley Down Under with Tom Selleck. Whew. There has to be a shorter route but darn if I know.
Thank you for the cannon salute, Conch.

Re: Six Degrees of Magnum P.I. (Game)
The shorter route between Dennis Dun, MPI, and James Hong is James Hong was in the MPI episode "Forty."
Bonzo was played by Peggy the Chimp who was in Johnny Weissmuller's TV series Jungle Jim which also starred Dean Fredericks. Fredericks was on the Rawhide episode "The Greedy Town" with Mercedes McCambridge who was in MPI's "Don't Say Goodbye."
Have we done John Schneider?

Worthy of a BIG BOOM....wouldn't ya' say Conch?
Haven't looked for Schneider's connection, but I'm sure somebody'll have it before too long!
This place just keeps gettin' better all the time!

Honestly, considering the sleuthing skills of this crew, I wouldn't be surprised if a connection was found from Bonzo directly to the Lads!!!
Which, of course, would include, Flipper, Gentle Ben, Ben the rat and Clarence from Daktari!
