Sid Melton, R. I. P.

NYTimes.com: Sid Melton, a jug-eared character actor best known for his regular roles in the television shows “Make Room for Daddy” and “Green Acres,” and for his unflagging reliability as the comic relief in many science fiction and noir films of the 1950s, died on Wednesday in Burbank, Calif. He was 94.

A true "trooper" actor if there ever was one!.R.I.P., Mr. Sid.

And a great comic sidekick to Capt. Midnight, as Ichabod "Ikky" Mudd.
