I'd probably say Morrow as well, Kashimo. Agar can't really act for beans but I still enjoy him a lot in his movies. Speaking only of their heyday in the 50's, Agar acted in twice as many genre films as Morrow, which kind of surprised me, but they both racked up a pile of fun movies that I enjoy watching 50 years later.

JEFF MORROW

Oh, Agar for me, thanks. Why? Take a look at that list of genre films. It is telling that after all these years, the FNF crowd have no idea who Morrow is, but recognize Agar instantly. PLUS... He was married to Shirley Temple and was in John Wayne pictures, so gets beaucoup bonus points for that.

I'm for Agar also, and Tweedledee, for obvious reasons.

Tweedledum is unfairly picked on... 'cause of the unfortunate last syllable of his name!!

I agree about Tweedledum, even though his name's last syllable is used repeatedly in the theme of Dragnet! (Yes, I borrowed this from Grey Pilgrim.)
