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.

Katie Holmes, Zoey Deutch, and more also lead the starry cast of director Kenny Leon’s revival of Thornton Wilder's classic, Pulitzer Prize-winning play. Small town, big stakes.

Camryn Manheim, 63, has played the precinct lieutenant for three seasons, ever since the iconic show was rebooted in 2021. Although the Practice alum announced she was leaving by choice after the most recent season wrapped in May, reports later surfaced Law & Order producers had axed her, leaving Maura, 59, with the queasy feeling she was stealing someone’s job.
