Although Salty Hubbard (Arthur Hunnicutt) is Sunville's biggest liar, everyone in town believes Salty's claim that stranger Hoss Cartwright is really notorious outlaw Big Jack (Mike Mazurki). To stay alive, Hoss is forced to fake his own death, funeral and all. Meanwhile, the real Big Jack prepares to take full advantage of "Good Tuesday", a local bank holiday. In the episode's comic highlight, Hoss suddenly rises from the dead as the nonplussed Preacher (John Carradine) and the other mourners look on in bug-eyed terror. Others in the cast include Ivor Francis as the Banker and Milton Parsons as (what else?) the Undertaker. First shown on December 7, 1969, "Dead Wrong" was written and directed by Bonanza star Michael Landon.

Lanky American character actor Arthur Hunnicutt won his only Oscar® nomination for his supporting role in The Big Sky (1952), an unusual RKO Western directed by Howard Hawks and starring Kirk Douglas. Hunnicutt serves as narrator of this adventure as well as playing the grizzled uncle of Dewey Martin as one of two Kentucky frontiersmen (Douglas is the other) who attempt the first keelboat trip up the Missouri River in 1830. A specialist at playing "old codgers" far beyond his own years, Hunnicutt was only 41 when he played cantankerous old Uncle Zeb. In the opinion of some reviewers, his character is the film's central protagonist.

When he first emerged in New York City, Bullseye demanded $100,000 to spare the life of millionaire Arthur Hunnicutt. When Hunnicutt refused to pay, Bullseye killed him with a pen. Daredevil confronted Bullseye, and the first of many battles between the two ensued. Bullseye led the hero to a circus at Madison Square Garden where the world could watch their fight on live television. Bullseye intended to prove his deadly abilities so that the next time he made such a threat he would be paid immediately and with out question. Daredevil was unable to stop Bullseye there, but later defeated him when Bullseye targeted another millionaire, Henry Foster.
Born in Gravelly, Yell County, Arkansas, on 17 February, 19101, Hunnicutt attended Arkansas State Teacher's College2 until his Junior year, when he dropped out due to lack of finances during the Great Depression. He then taught at a school until he had gathered enough money to attend the Phidela Rice School of Voice in Cleveland. Eventually, he moved to Martha's Vineyard and wound up landing roles on Broadway, his first notable New York engagement being in the Theatre Guild's production of Love's Old Sweet Song. He moved to Hollywood in 1949 and began appearing in films. Despite his long and varied career, his role in The Big Sky would earn his only Academy nomination.
