Actor and comedian Louis Nye played Gordon Hathaway on the Steve Allen Show.
LOS ANGELES - Comedian Louis Nye, who created a national catchphrase belting out "Hi, ho, Steverino!" as one of the players on Steve Allen's groundbreaking 1950s TV show, has died. He was 92.
Nye died Sunday at his home in Los Angeles after a long battle with lung cancer, his son, Peter Nye, said Monday.
He was a classic, and a classy guy.
He played washed up TV vampire, "Zombo" on an episode of the Munsters. Cool guy.
92! Wow.
Sonny Drysdale on the Beverly Hillbillies. I loved that character.
Oh Yeah!
Sonny Drysdale.
