    talesin....It was a little annoying because I liked Little House on the Prairie and every time it was on, my dad would rail on and on about Michael Landon and what a hypocrite he is....it had something to do with Landon's relationship with his mother, actress Peggy O'Neill. My dad said he treated her like sh&t. I have no clue whether he was right or not (he worked in Hollywood for a while in the late sixties), but that's definitely what he thought...

    So it looks like JWDers with Bacon numbers include:

    talesin: Bacon number of 2
    SixofNine's daughter: Bacon number of 2TresHappy: Bacon number of 3Leolaia: Bacon number of 3RunningMan: Bacon number of 3
    SixofNine: Bacon number of 3
    Tuesday: Bacon number of 4
    Swan
    : Bacon number of 4
    AgapaLaLuz: Bacon number of 4

    Do we have any more 2's out there?

    I enjoyed Little House too, and was disappointed to hear the press when Landon died. Apparently, he was quite the womanizer, and more of a businessman than a "Pa". ah, well, so much for Hollywood.

    But, I know what you mean about loving a certain show when you're a kid, and someone is berating it the whole time you're trying to enjoy it ... oh, yeah!

    So, yeah,,, someone here has to have MET the man! Come on!

    The Oracle says: Eddie (I) Murphy has a Bacon number of 2.

    Eddie (I) Murphy was in Boomerang (1992) with David Alan Grier
    David Alan Grier was in Woodsman, The (2004) with Kevin Bacon

    So my bacon number is actually 4! wow!

    :I missed an opportunity to see his band when they were in town, "The Bacon Brothers". What degree would that have given me?????? grrrrrr

    .

    From a biblical standpoint, that all depends on if you went as a fan, or as a groupie.

    OK, my mom was a friend of Barnard Hughes. That gives me a Kevin Bacon number of 4.

    Barnard Hughes was in Cradle Will Rock (1999) with Tim (I) Robbins
    Tim (I) Robbins was in Mystic River (2003) with Kevin Bacon

    All right, my stepgrandmother, Mariann Walters, had a bit part in a Steve McQueen movie (ended up on the cutting room floor). Once again, KB=4.

    Steve (I) McQueen was in Hunter, The (1980) with Eli Wallach
    Eli Wallach was in Mystic River (2003) with Kevin Bacon

    Let's see, she was also in an ACT production of Uncle Vanya with Robert Donat. Uh-oh, KB=5 via this connection.

    Robert Donat was in Young Mr. Pitt, The (1942) with Herbert Lom
    Herbert Lom was in Dead Zone, The (1983) with Jackie Burroughs
    Jackie Burroughs was in Cavedweller (2004) with Kevin Bacon
