It"s like a bad taste you can"t get out of your memory or mouth! I hate Lassie as I got older.- Okay there were three different Lassie-masters or handlers ( in the show). Stage one was Jeff Morrow who was an early teen-aged boy played by the now deceased actor Tommy Rettig. Stage 2, the best known, was Timmy Martin ( almost never was the last name used) a child-much younger than master one, of the Martin family of Paul and Ruth. Ruth Martin, the Mom, was played by June Lockhart. The stage three Master was a Forest Ranger called Corey Stewart- I think there were several actors involved. It was a mistake regearing for an adult handler- as the program was essentially juvenile and could have gone on in the juvenile setting with different actors. No double Barking! woof woof.
