I'm shocked that[rob-k]didn't get this one,but here goes...in 1959 when bonanza went on the air an actor named[guy williams] was first chosen for the role of adam cartwright but he was also offered the starring role in a disney series called[zorro]well williams chose [zorro]and pernell roberts became[adam],now talk about irony five years later pernell roberts wanted out of the series and guy williams for a short time was added to the cast as[will cartwright]a cousin but did stay in part because robert's contract tied him to the show for another season and according to guy williams,he didn't feel welcome by the cast members.
And then Williams got Lost In Space...........
