Dwayne Hickman Ted Quotations

I read several scenes and then I was called back and everyone just acted like I had the part. I went home and still wasn't sure if I had it or not. Finally Ted called and informed me that I had, indeed, been cast as Dobie Gillis.

Suddenly I was on stage.Looking out into the sea of screaming excited teens, I thought for a fleeting moment that maybe I had been too hard on myself, maybe I was just as much a teen singing sensation as this slick Avalon fellow.

I was just standing around and suddenly I was cast as an extra. I hated it because I was so shy.

I was working on the Bob Cummings Show and my manager, Ted Wick, call 20th Century Fox, and suggested me for the role of Dobie.
