Have you ever experienced the dread that comes with hearing a disembodied buzzing in the room with you, only to see the slim leg of a paper wasp come creeping out from behind the blinds? Have you experienced the disgust that comes when you go to pick an errant hair away from your sweaty neck, only to realize it’s a click beetle? How do you feel when you see a silverfish scurry across your bathroom ceiling…a spotted lantern fly pinwheel toward you on a current of air…a hulking spider retreat into the dark, narrow space between your mailbox and your house’s siding?

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
