MISTER ED TV BUZZ
- Jan. 22, 2003 -
It's been announced that the Fox network is planning to remake the Mister Ed TV show. The progress has started. The writer - Jack Handey will be coming up with some new Mr. Ed material. The new voice of our favorite talking horse is under wraps. No word yet what equine will take Ed's place or if the computer will be generating a talking horse. Let's hope they make the new show with good morals with strong family values in mind.
MISTER ED FAN CLUB TEXAS

Well to answer Marge Krell's question back in 1999 that is posted to your website I can say that Big Bucks Burnett is my Cousin, son of Snooky, my Dad's Sister, and do beleive she and Big Bucks or better known in the family as James Ray Burnett do live in Dallas somewhere. I could e-mail old dad and find out where if it were important. I too for a short period of time was a member of the Mr. Ed Fan Club founded by Big Bucks or as I call him James Ray. This was back in the 80's. He must of gotten tired of keeping up the club, because he was slow to getting my stuff to me, but that may have been my fault, since he's family I'll give him the benefit of the doubt plus he coughed up the goods when I stated that I have been ripped off. He wrote back and included the goods saying fear not for I have not ripped you off. Anyway if anybody wants to find him they can e-mail me. I will make an inquiry as to where one my favorite cousins of my earlier years has run off to, probably ducking all the other people he was slow to send the goods to! P.S. James if you read this know that I messin with you OK!

There wasn't just one Mr. Ed.
They had several they used in the series
and each had their own special tricks.
When I was around 11 or 12 one of the
first ones was sold to my friends sister
across the street. The story went that
he developed an allergy to the peroxide
they were using to make all the Mr. Ed's
blaze look the same. He did wonderful
tricks and talked. They also said that
how they got Mr. Ed to move his mouth
was by a special halter that had certain
pressure points on the side of his jaw.
At the time we all lived on Midlothian Dr.
in Altadena, California. The name of
the family that bought Mr. Ed was Soash.
The girls names, they were identical twins,
were Marilyn and Maggie. This was about
1960 - 1961. I think they bought the
horse from someone at
Eaton Canyon Stables
near by where we lived. I don't know
whether the girls bought the horse directly
from the trainer/owner or from someone
else who bought the horse from the
trainer/owner.
ONLY MISTER ED and PUMPKIN

Several Mister Eds?
Not true!
There was Ed and Pumpkin and that's it.
However, in that era,
there was a thriving business among shady
horse dealers. They'd find a horse with
a resemblance to this star or that and
claim it was one and the same,
or a double of. Lots of people bought
horses thinking they were the Bonanza
horses or Flicka or ???.
You name the star. There were horses that
looked close enough to convince people.
