HAPPY FATHER'S DAY - A SUPER SIX LIST

For Father's Day this year, I'm presenting a Super Six List of actors who played both the father and son in their respective series.  Two ideas I had to discard - Henry Brady in an episode of 'The Brady Bunch' and Josh Collins who was a recurring character from 'Love That Bob!'.  Both of them were the grandfathers of the main characters, both played by the same actor.  (I already knew I had to dismiss Monte Markham in 'The Second Hundred Years' for the same reason.)

With these duos, the science of tele-genetics gets a big boost because they prove that DNA can be matched exactly in succeeding generations.

SUPER SIX LIST

ACTORS WHO PLAYED BOTH FATHER & SON

1]  James Garner

Bret Maverick & Beauregard "Pappy" Maverick

2]  Forrest Tucker

With our fifth entry, we had to arrive at the choice from the opposite direction: Who could have played the father first and then the son on their respective series?  And what better place to search than in the dimension of Parralel Time?

5]  Jonathan Frid

Bramwell Collins & Barnabas Collins

Recurring in 22 episodes between 1.1199 and 1.1245

And for the sixth entry, the typical joker in the deck, in which we get two, two, two entries in one:
