Hi,

George 'The Man from Uncle' Waggner,
made just 2 films with Duke,

Operation Pacific.(1951)
The Fighting Kentuckian.(1949)

[ethanedwards]

Just to re-introduce George 'The Man from Uncle' Waggner,who
made just 2 films with Duke,

[chester7777]

While Mr. Waggner only directed two Duke films, he sure had his finger in several TV series that I use to enjoy (Maverick, 77 Sunset Strip, Cheyenne, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E.).

I think it's kind of funny that sometimes he's credited as george waGGner. Does anybody know anything about that?

I remember watching Green Hornet and Man from Uncle. I would say that although I only caught the end of his work it was of value and I respect his abilities.
