[edit] Discussion

Can we deduce from the information in this article that Wally Cox was the brother of Watergate special prosecutor Archibald Cox, Jr.? I don't remember hearing about this at the time, but it could be true. Tex 14:38, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Checking an extensive biography of Archibald Cox, Jr., I find no mention of Wally. Tex 15:39, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

I seem to remember Wally Cox in a tv pilot episode about an inept explorer called "call me bwana" although I can't find any record of that in the usual compilations (only a movie of that name by another more well known comedian - Bob Hope). Perhaps the original idea was lifted by Hope - its strange I can't find any record of this childhood memory! As I remember the pilot didn't last long.

Hi, I used wikimarkup to bring your talk up clear -- you could ask this question at Wikipedia:Reference desk/Entertainment and the keen librarians will try to help you. PS remember to sign your talk posts with four of these tildes ~ so other eds can know who you are. Best, Julia Rossi (talk) 00:48, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wally Cox Marriage Error

These are the marriages listed in the article (also listed on Imdb):

Marriages- Patricia Tiernan (1967 - 15 February 1973) (his death), Milagros Tirado Cox (7 September 1963 - 29 December 1970) (divorced) 2 children, Marilyn Gennaro (7 June 1954 - ?).

Unless Cox was a bigamist, something's wrong because it shows him married to Patricia and Milagros at the same time.

Noticed while bringing list into text. Kept the details hidden in edit for the record. Julia Rossi (talk) 00:39, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cox and Brando

On the Brando page, it alleges that Cox and Brando had a long time affair. There is a quote that is sourced, but the relationship is merely alleged. Can we included a reference here?72.78.20.31 (talk) 08:37, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
