So I had this great idea last week that, like Arlee, I would feature songs done by child stars, but in my case, the songs would have been done while the actor was busy doing their show. I started with Paul Petersen (Jeff Stone from The Donna Reed Show), Johnny Crawford (Mark McCain from The Rifleman), and Jay North (Dennis from Dennis The Menace). I honestly thought this would be a close match. Boy, was I ever wrong.
Paul Petersen – 1
- Janet
Johnny Crawford – 11
- Dan
- Don
- Arlee
- Willow
- Jack
- Eugenia
- Cathy
- Prior
- Birgit
- Mary B
- Stephen
Jay North – zero
Congratulations to Johnny Crawford, who now directs his own dance orchestra, and Paul and Jay–I don’t know what to tell you. Thanks also to Janet for helping me avoid a shutout.
Intrepidly, I push on. It’s the girls’ turn next Monday, March 1. See you then!
John,
I sorta figured this might be the way it would turn out. At least it wasn’t a shut-out. Thanks for sharing the outcome. I’ll see ya on Monday!

I think I have a much better battle for Monday. I hope so, anyway…

I wish there had been a better choice than he, although I don’t know if I could have pried more votes away from Johnny Crawford.

Dang…I meant to vote…I had no clue North ever got involved with music.

He only recorded the one album, and it was pretty much a novelty record…

That was very decisive. My outcome was a bit better. But it was a fun Battle and look at the past.
