Of the ten regular actors (human ones, not animals like Arnold the Piggy ) on the show, eight of them were over 40 when the show premiered on 9/15/65. The oldest was Hank Patterson (Fred Ziffel), who was a month shy of turning 77. Eddie Albert (Oliver Wendell Douglas) was the next oldest: age 59. Pat Buttram (Mr. Haney) and Frank Cady (Sam Drucker) were both in their 50s, as was Barbara Pepper (the original Doris Ziffel), age 50. Eva Gabor (Lisa Douglas), Alvy Moore (Hank Kimball), and Sid Melton (Alf Monroe) were all in their late 40s. Mary Grace Canfield (Ralph Monroe) had just turned 41. The only exception was Tom Lester (Eb Dawson), the youngest cast member, who was eight days away from turning 27.
