Just Denis

[10ClarionSt]

Does anyone remember an American comedy show from the early sixties called 'Just Denis'? It starred a blond haired kid playing Denis. What ever happened to him? Did he go on to be a big star or did he end up driving a fork lift truck or something?

It was based on a great comic strip called 'Dennis the Menace' (both were changed to 'Just Dennis' for the British market to avoid confusion with the 'Beano' character) and starred Jay North. There's a little about the comic strip here:

There was a movie remake in 1993 with Walter Mathau as Mr Wilson, the nieghbour.
