Next: Polly Holliday
Hi Chick,
Polly Holiday was in All the Presidents Men with Hal Holbrook, who was in They Only Kill Their Masters with James Garner who was in Rockford Files with Tom Selleck.
Next up: In honor of the Dodgers being in the World Series - Manager Leo Durocher, who appeared in a surprising amount of tv shows and movies.
Don't really have time for a flowchart, but without doing any research....Beverly Hillbillies - H50 -Magnum. I'm sure there are other paths, but that's the first one that comes to mind. Gotta run!

Hi 308Guy,
After consulting with Alex Trebek we feel your answer, while perhaps the right one, is too vague. You have to name the actors.
Yea, I knew that, I was just suggesting that was the "outline" of shows that constituted the 6 degrees.
Leo Durocher was in an episode of the Beverly Hillbillies with Buddy Ebsen, who was in an episode of Hawaii 50 (3,000 Crooked Miles to Honolulu) with Kam Fong Chun, (who played Chin Ho Kelly), who was in at least one episode of Magnum PI, (The Love-For-Sale Boat).

Have we done Davy Jones (of the Monkey's)?
Should be pretty simple!
But I'll put it out there anyway.
I got it!
Davy Jones guest starred on the Ben Casey episode If You Play Your Cards Right, You Too Can Be a Loser with John McLiam John McLiam was a guest star on the Magnum, P.I. episode Limited Engagement
That'll work, but I was going for the connection with Micky Dolenz when he starred in "Circus Boy" with Noah Berry Jr. as a regular...and as we all know....Noah played Floyd in "All Roads Lead to Floyd"! Berry has a very impressive body of work..he did it (acting) for a very long time! Never really "starred" in anything or was the main character or leading man, but he was in a lot of different things. Enjoyed him so much as "Rocky" Jim Rockford's dad in TRF.
So it'd be Noah Berry Jr. was in Circus Boy with Micky Dolenz who was in the Monkee's with Davy Jones.....er...something like that, but as stated, your connection works just fine!
Wesley Snipes was in "Murder at 1600" with Tate Donovan. Tate Donovan was Robin Masters' nephew in season 6 "Summer School".
I was actually supposed to be in "Murder at 1600" as an extra. There was an unexpected cancellation that day and all the extras were transferred instead to the crappy made-for-TV movie, "Lies He Told", starring Gary Cole. I was disappointed, but I suppose both movies sucked.

Hi Mad Kudu Buck,
Good catch. Since you didn't offer up a new challenge, let me pinch hit for you.
Next up: Jim Nabors
Car 54 Where Are You:
Lucille Tooty - "Do you like me as a blonde?"
Gunther Tooty - "Like you? I don't think our marriage license covers it!"

Okay, I think I got this one google-free. I’m pretty sure Nabors was in Cannonball Run II and Sinatra (Laura) does a cameo...and, of course, Tom was the star...or was it...hmm.
"How fiendishly deceptive of you Magnum. I could have sworn I was hearing the emasculation of a large rodent."

Styles,
I was thinking of when Carol Burnett guest starred twice on Gomer Pyle, later on she appeared on Magnum but your link works. You didn't select the next challenge, so let me throw out another one.
Next up: Ricky Nelson
Ricky Nelson was in Rio Lobo with Dean Martin (where they sang a brilliant version of My Rifle, My Pony and Me), and Dean was in Oceans’ 11 (and about 50 others) with Frank Sinatra. All Roads Lead to Frank.

Hi Paddy,
You are correct but like me you mix up Howard Hawk's and Duke Wayne's Rio Bravo with the 2 other remakes they did of it, El Dorado and Rio Lobo.
Dean Martin was in Rio Bravo, and as you noted he rocked "My Rifle" with Nelson plus the title tune. Paddy I was in a cantina in Mexico and the house singer did "My Rifle" in Spanish. For all I know he changed the words completely, but it "sounded" better. Probably wouldn't be bad in the Old Irish, either, I believe they call it Erse?
She was on Fat Actress with Kirstie Alley, Kirstie was on Cheers with Ted Danson, he was the jealous husband in "Don't Say Goodbye" and the roommate in the 3 Men movies. Joey Heatherton...
