Season 5, Episode 15 “The Craftsman”
His role as the Doc in Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea secured his name as an amazing actor in the TV industry. Richard Bull crossed paths with Michael Landon on the set of Bonanza when he played a rancher caught in a vicious range war. We can’t confirm if this meeting had anything to do with Bull getting cast, but considering how much control Landon had on the creation, it’s certainly plausible. Post Little House, Arngrim continued working in TV shows and was an AIDS activist after her friend and on-screen husband Steve Tracy died from the horrific disease. Her last acting credit was in 2021’s Even in Dreams and on a TV short called Livin’ On a Prairie in 2017.
