Not only is John Astin the last surviving cast member from "The Addams Family", he is also the last surviving male Villain from "Batman", having played The Riddler in 2 episodes that Frank Gorshin did not play the part.
Oddly enough, both Caroline Jones and Ted Cassidy were both on Batman as well. Not the same episode though.
Ted played Lurch in a window scene.
Interesting, thanks for sharing this info about John. Which episode of Addams Family appealed to you the most?
I met Jerry Mathers 2 years ago in Concord CA, at a 1 day Comicon event. Very nice man, and was very happy to meet him, and get me, and my wife and daughter taken a picture with him. Not much of a talker, but very polite, and was a pleasure to meet him in person.
We're very happy to know that you had a chance to meet Jerry and had a nice time!
For a while Jerry was hanging around Memphis going to our city's hockey games. He'd drive the zamboni machine and reglaze the ice during halftime. A lot of people were too young to really know who Mather's was, but for us who grew up watching Leave it to Beaver, it was like family and we loved it. He was a great guy, and it was cool to see him having such a good time, but I still remember how surreal it seemed to me.
John Astin was irreplaceable in that part, pure perfection.
So true! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
John Astin WAS Gomez. All of the ones that follow up in the movies and worse.. Wednesday... Not even in the same class... I think the show flops without him.
Who would have thought he would be the last surviving cast member? Both Wednesday and Pugsley died first.
Evil Roy Slade!! Fabulous!
Alan Hale Jr. who died at age 68 (March 8, 1921 - January 2, 1990) was an American actor and restaurateur.[1] He was the son of actor Alan Hale Sr.[1] His television career spanned four decades, but he was best known for his secondary lead role as Captain Jonas Grumby, better known as The Skipper, on the 1960s CBS comedy series Gilligan's Island (1964-1967),[1] a role he reprised in three Gilligan's Island television films and two spin-off cartoon series.
Man, I'd have given anything to have gotten to go to Hawaii and visit Hale's restaurant. I'm never ashamed to tell people that my favorite show growing up as a kid was Gilligan's Island, and the show never fails to make me laugh when I'm feeling down. When I was fishing in Alaska, I discovered that Russell Johnson lived on an Island close by and was involved in theater in the Seattle area. Have two autographed pictures of him that I will always treasure.
Demond Wilson was also on The New Odd Couple as Oscar Madison in 1982.Also there was Michael McKean who's the only surviving main cast member of Laverne and Shirley. He played Lenny.
Thanks for the info!
Carole White (Rosie) is still living, as is Leslie Easterbrook, and Vicki Lawrence.
Ed Marinaro, briefly a regular on Laverne and Shirley before joining the cast of Hill Street Blues, is also still alive.
Barbara Feldon is the only surviving main cast member of Get Smart. Bernie Kopell is still alive, but he was not a member of the main cast.
Tina Louise from "Gilligan's Island" and John Astin from "The Addams Family" have managed to keep the spirit of their shows alive for new generations of fans.
Micky Dolenz does the same for The Monkees.
Nancy Kulp was also a main cast member of The Beverly Hillbillies. She played Miss Jane Hathaway. Kulp passed in 1992. And Joyce DeWitt is NOT the only main cast member of Three's Company to still be alive. Richard Cline (Larry) is still alive as well.
Klein.
The two other actresses who replaced Suzanne Dummer are still alive as well.
Kline, not Cline nor Klein. Lol 🤷

The irony is most members of The Addams Family cast died young. The show ended in 1966, but after the death of Jackie Coogan in 1984, John Astin was the only surviving adult cast member. Felix Silla was alive, but he wasn’t a main cast member.
Through this whole thing, I kept thinking: OK, here's who smoked and who didn't. Or who was able to quit in time. Everyone smoked back then, and inevitably it caught up with many.
Sad but true. May those cast members find peace. Which episode of Addams Family appealed to you the most?
@@FactsVerse Probably the one where Gomez keeps trying to do himself in. It was called Green-Eyed Gomez.
😊@@batman5224
@@batman5224z
John Astin was also great as Harry’s dad on Night Court ironically living longer than Harry Anderson.
So true! What is your favorite episode of Nigh Court?
Love John Astin pulling a lite cigar out of his pocket. Read somewhere he had an asbestos lined pocket in his coat but was burned a few times despite this. Love him in everything he's done. Keep on keep'n on man. You are loved.
Us too! Thanks for the trip down memory lane. What other types of video would you like to see?
I love John Astin he will always be Gomez Addams no matter how many movies they make.
Todd Bridges also played in Little House on the prairie as Solomon

Barbara Eden from I Dream of Jeannie, Micky Dolenz from The Monkees...
Not only is Dolenz both a last surviving original member of a group and series, he's the last surviving member of two series (The Monkees and a older series called Circus Boy).
@@shawnhall6314 That's right. I didn't think of Circus Boy.
@@shawnhall6314I watched Circus Boy as a young girl.
Dick Van Dyke is the only adult regular member left from his show.
Larry Mathews is still alive, but he can't be considered a regular, he wasn't in every episode.
Thanks for the info! Which episode of the show is the most memorable for you?
And yet his name was in the opening credits of every episode.
@@radicalross7700 I know. They were trying to point up the fact that Rob was a family man as well as a professional man.
The show was the first to show a husband going to work and the audience knew where he was going.
I watched these all the time when i was a kid. I still enjoy these today 😊
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! Be safe and have a great day ♥
Three's Company, Richard Kline/Priscilla Barnes/Jenilee Harrison are still alive. Should include I Dream of Jeanie, Barbara Eden only cast member still alive.
Joyce DeWitt is still alive. Many of you people have forgotten this.
And The Streets of San Francisco, w/Michael Douglas (Malden and Hatch having long left [Malden in 2009, Hatch in 2017]).
There's a few other shows with only one main cast member alive
1) Michael McKean from Laverne and Shirley
2) Julie Kavner from Rhoda
3) Patty Maloney from Far Out Space Nuts
4) Erin Murphy from Bewitched
5) Barbara Eden from I Dream of Jeannie
6) Ron Howard from The Andy Griffith Show
Maybe I love Lucy and George Reeve's Superman.
"6) Ron Howard from The Andy Griffith Show"
Elinor Donahue...Still alive.
Actually, Elinor Donahue, who was in Season 2 of Andy Griffith is still living. I don't think she was on it for more than a couple of seasons, but she's alive at age 87. Posting 7-13-24.
Ah Patty Maloney, and that Gilligan's Island connection. Still waiting for them to release the entire run on blu-ray which it doesn't look like we'll ever get.
John Astin not only outlived his Addams Family children, he has also outlived Harry Anderson, who played his son on Night Court.
So true! We love John. What is your episode of Addams Family?
John Astin was also one of the main characters in "Operation Petticoat" on the ABC network (1977). I suspect there are several surviving actors from that series however, since many of them were young women at the time. For sure, Jamie Lee Curtis is still around.
Micky Dolenz(The Monkees) should be on this list.
Thanks for the addition! What other types of video would you like to see?
Unfortunate that you omitted Nancy Kulp from The Beverly Hillbillies mention. Her chasing after Jethro was a big source of laughs.
Thanks for this!
Also, Jethro was the nephew of Jed Clampett, not a cousin! It is always difficult to believe statements from these types of videos when even a few of the facts are incorrect or omitted.
Nancy died February 3, 1991 (age 69 years)
@@conniemorgan3308 I was protesting her being left off the cast list. She was a major character. I was aware of her death.

The Patty Duke Show has one surviving cast member, Paul O'Keefe, who played Ross.

There's also Kent McCord from Adam 12.
Not sure if this counts, Burt Ward of Batman. I know Julie Newmar is still alive as is Lee Meriweather from the movie, but Burt is the last main character.
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
I would argue that Richard Kline (Larry) was a "main" character on Three's Company, and he is still alive.
I believe Priscilla Barnes aka Terri is still alive as well.
@@juliekline2871 except neither of them weren't original cast members of Three's Company. Larry was recurring in the beginning until becoming a regular later on. And. course Priscilla Barnes who played Terri joined the show into Season 6 after Suzanne Somers left. Jenilee Harrison, who played Chrissy's cousin, Cindy also still alive for some consolation as well. Once Again, though. It's all about original cast members of television shows, excluding those showing up late in it's time.
Mary Jo Catlett was a housekeeper on Different Strokes and is still alive. She replaced Charollete Rae and is the voice of Mrs Puff on SpongeBob cartoon.
Interesting, thanks for sharing this info! What other types of video would you like to see?

When Diff’rent Strokes came out, my mother had a fit. “That pretty White Girl living with those 2 Black Boys”. She didn’t care that they were under the Watch care of the Old man.

When you mention Mork & Mindy - don't forget Orson! He was as much a main character as any, even though it was just his voice. Ralph James did pass away, in 1992
All the people we've lost that brought so much joy to us all. Sad.
You are quite wrong about Threes Company, Priscilla Barnes is still alive and so is Richard Klein who played Larry.
I recall watching repeats of Steptoe and Son as a kid growing up in the 80s. It would be a few decades later that I would come across Stanford and Son which you could tell right away was based on the British series. The distinct cultural differences, however, allows each series to stand on it own.
Sanford and Son was such a great funny show.
Amazing that Jon Aston is still alive having smoked all those cigars 🙈
That was a picture of Priscilla Barnes, NOT Susanne Somers!!!
Thanks for pointing this out. We'll check the video!
AI does that a lot....
There are more cast members alive in Three's Company, Joyce DeWitt isn't the last surviving cast member. Richard Kline, Priscilla Barnes, and Jenilee Harrison are all still alive, and they were all regulars. And as for Diff'rent Strokes, Mary Jo Catlett, who joined the cast later, is still alive. Danny Cooksey is also still alive.
Thanks for the correction, much appreciated! Which episode of Three's Company is the most memorable for you?
@@FactsVerse Welcome, and it's been too long, since I've watched it, that I can't remember them. lol
Tina added quality to the group. Always with the talent to do many other things. In the long run I think 🤔 she was the impetus for the classy approach that was used in making Gilligans Island 🏝 the world 🌍 success that it is. I liked both of you girls equally, but when I look back, you are my favourite. 💎
Micky Dolenz is the last surviving cast member of The Monkees.
When you were talking about some of John Astins post AF work, I found interesting that you didn't mention McMillan and Wife.
One episode he was in also guest starred Jackie Coogan. (They didn't have any scenes together.)
Thanks for the tip!
I remember from Sanford the time Fred had a tooth ache and he sent for a hypnotist but Lamont who’s skeptical is the one who was hypnotized
I think Michael McKean is the only surviving cast member of “Laverne and Shirley”.
Danny Cooksey from Diff'rent Strokes is still alive. He came later but he was a credited cast member.
Gone but not forgotten
Loved all these showes!!👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! Be safe and have a great evening.
@@FactsVerse Thank you and you as well!!
Connie Stevens is the only surviving cast member of the TV Series "Hawaiian Eye" (ABC-TV) 1959-1963
It amazes me how these classic shows that were so popular rose to fame, were at the top of their game, went through declining ratings and were cancelled all within 3 years. Time seemed slower in those days.
In Threes Company, you forgot about Richard Kline as Larry, Don Knotts as Mr. Fully and Jenny Lee Harris as Cindy Snow as well as the actor who played Chrissy's father who guest starred on many epidodes.
Ron Howard is the last surviving cast member from The Andy Griffith.
Incorrect. Elinor Donahue is still alive.
What about Sally Field of The Flying Nun and Michael Cole of the Mod Squad?
They didn't even mention that banker lady Jane Hathaway from The Beverly Hillbillies. She was in every episode IIRC or just about but absolutely an important main character. She died in 1991 and deserves honorable mention.
Jeez 1991 seems so long ago... Getting older sucks.
Gomez now looks like Uncle Fester. 😎
So true lol!
John Aston also voiced Gomez in the 1992 Addams family cartoon!
I heard that typo, Elizabeth Kerr did not die in 2082 😂
Thanks for pointing this out! We'll check the video.
No, few "Three's Company" cast are still alive.
Just wantd to mention John Astin's role in the movie "CANDY" with the likes of Richard Burton, Ringo Starr, Walter Matthau, Marlon Brando, James Coburn, John Huston and anyone remember EWA AULIN as Candy? Kind of a fun movie, but kind of strange for 1968....Guess it still is
He ALSO. Played the Riddler in the Batman series!!!
@@mikeayers5383 Before or after FRANK GORSHIN ????
Ringo's still in his 30's. 😂
@@dennymartin18 I was 30 at one time also. Oh how time has crept up on me and everybody else I guess.
John Astin was the grandfather in the New Addams Family
Priscilla Barnes and Jenilee Harrison (Terri and Cindy) are still alive, I know they were not original characters but she was on the show for 3 years
Ironic that Tina Louise is the only surviving member of Gilligan's Island and actually hated the show, and for decades wouldn't even acknowledge it. She wanted out and it's pretty much been confirmed that had the show gotten a fourth season she would have been written off the show with some miraculous accident and been replace with another character.
For fans of old shows and movies, it's always sad to know that the actors of those shows either had a difficult time during production, or disliked their stint on a show that so many people enjoy; especially comedies where it appears everyone was having a good time and doubly so when you know that there are actors who would give anything to be part of something that people still fondly remember decades after it's over.
Jethro Bodine was the nephew of Jed Clampett, not cousin. That's why he called him Uncle Jed.
The only thing that ticked me off was he never got even to first base, Beverly Hills to boot, give me a break. Then it was amusing to see him down a box of cereal at one sitting.
Regarding who was related to whom on the Beverly Hillbillies, it was my understanding that
Jed and Jethro's mother Pearl were first cousins, NOT siblings, making Jed and Jethro first cousins once removed, not actually uncle and nephew.
Jethro may have thought of Jed as more of an "uncle" then a cousin because of their age difference and relationship.
And let's not forget that Jed calls his mother-in-law "Granny".
@@radicalross7700 Pearl Bodine was Jed Clampett's late wife's sister, so a sister-in-law. Elly Mae's mother is Jed's late wife. Jethro and Elly Mae are cousins.
@@philcarbone3996 If Pearl Bodine was Jed's sister-in-law, then, like Jed's late wife, she would also be Granny's daughter. She wasn't. It's clear to anyone that they weren't mother and daughter (Granny once knocked Pearl unconscious with a skillet. Deliberately.)
Anyway, I checked. Pearl and Jed were first cousins . I could find nothing that indicates otherwise. If you have, please tell me where it can be found.
@@radicalross7700 So why would Jethro call Jed uncle? When Mr. Drysdale gave Jethro a job at Commerce Bank, he is referred to as Jed Clampett's nephew. So Granny hits Pearl with a skillet. That proves nothing. Jed's late wife is the key to the family. The presenter makes numerous mistakes. On another video he said Red Skelton was in the cast of Cheers.
The hillbillies were from Tennessee, not the Ozarks of Missouri.
Thanks for the correction! We'll check the video 💗
Bug Tussle to be exact.
At least you got Pam Dawber Correct.

Sanford And Son - no matter what you are doing, you rushed home and watched it. if it was dinner time when the show was on, it was time to bring out the tv stands and it was either tv dinners or KFC.

Why didn't you mention Ken Osmond who played Eddie Haskel on Leave it to Beaver?
Because he's dead.
that's the point the story was about actors who had died from TV show, Eddie Haskel was enough of a main character he could have been mentioned.
Astin was in a one-man Broadway show playing Edgar Allan Poe. How I wish I could have seen that!

Does Marla Gibbs count for "The Jeffersons"??? Or are there some of the kids still alive? They had always changed the actors who played the kids.... but George and Wheezy, the Willis', and Mr Bentley are all passed. Marla is 93.
One of the actors who played Lionel died (Mike Evans), but the other one is alive and the actress who played Jenny Willis is alive

@@FactsVerse well, back in the late 80’s and thru the 90’s, channel 6 ABC, used to have T.G.I.F. TV shows. I liked them all, but quite often, some didn’t make the cut. (For whatever reason)
Strong ones were Boy meets world and Sabrina, The Teenage Witch.
One of the ones that I like and didn’t make the cut, was about this guy who got this Antique Rug and found out that the rug had a goodie genie in it. I don’t remember the title, but I was sad when it got replaced.
It would be nice to see an episode focused on the shows of T.G.I.F and what caused some to bomb, while others blossomed. Also, maybe point out inconsistencies of the shows. (For example, in boy meets world, Cory met Topanga in his grade school class and eventually became a couple. Later on in the series, They claimed that they met in a playground.)
Don't forget Bobby Sherman from tv's Here Come theBrides. He is the last member of the series stillalive.
