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.

With the Olympics coming to a conclusion, sports fans can return to arbitrarily rooting for teams and individuals rather than using a nationalist framework to guide fandom. The closure of the games also means a shift back to all the other goofy ways of scoring sports, like football and its goofy points scheme or NASCAR and its stage wins and however else the drivers accumulate points.
