What actress played the role of Phylis on Rhoda?

Cloris Leachman played Phyillis on "Rhoda" and "The Mary Tyler Moore Show". She also was the first mom on the original "Lassie" show with Tommy Rettig.


Tommy Rettig who Played Jeff Miller on Lassie Is he still living?

No, I believe he is deceased. Jon Provost, the familiar (Timmy) of the Provost-Lockhart Lassie period, as a flag of convenience the (Provost-Lockhart Lassie) is still alive, as is Miss Lockhart.


Which lassie series were first the one with Tommy rettig or Jon provost?

Tommy Rettig, as Jeff, was the first owner of Lassie. Jan Clayton played his mother. When he got to old, the story line had Jon Provost cast as being adopted, both by the Martin's and Lassie making the choice to stay with Timmy on the farm. In the original transition, Timmy's mother was played by Cloris Leachman for one eposide. The series with Tommy Rettig was renamed "Jeff's Collie" much later, I guess to separate the two stars. There was also a Canadian "Lassie" series a few years ago with Corey Sevier as Lassie's owner.


Did Lassie get the TV crew sick?

There was never any indication that Lassie got the TV crew sick on the 1950's show "Lassie."


Is lassie a male or a female?

If you are referring to what gender Lassie was portrayed as on the show, Lassie was a female dog. However, the dogs that were used to play the character were actually male. This is because male collies have a thicker summer coat and producers thought the coat would air better on the television screen. Also, male dogs tend to be bigger then females, so the child who played Timmy would be able to work with the dog for a longer period of time before outgrowing him.
