Does the name Kenny Dexter ring any bells?
The Female Half witnessed an interesting episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show in which a mobster forces Dick, Buddy and Sally to write a routine for his nephew Kenny Dexter who wants to be a comedian. The guy is a real life-of-the-party type who does a lot of impressions. He makes his debut at a fancy nightclub and bombs. Everyone concludes that he just doesn’t have any talent so he decides to go to college.
Jack Larson played “Kenny Dexter” in the episode, which was titled “Big Max Calvada” (Episode # 3.9), which aired November 20, 1963, just two days before the assassination of President Kennedy!
If anyone has the deluxe boxed set of the D.V.D.S. DVD’s, dub us a copy of Episode #3,9 will ya? It would be good to have for the archives!

Jack Larson played “Kenny Dexter” in the episode of Dick Van Dyke Show, which was titled “Big Max Calvada” (Episode # 3.9), which aired November 20, 1963. I’m trying to find info on this actor but all I can find is info on another Jack Larson who was Jimmy Olsen on 50’s SUPERMAN series. Can any1 help me on this?
