1972
in 1958, he guest-starred in the premiere episode of nbc's "cimarron city" western series, with george montgomery and john smith. macmurray's career continued upward the following year, when he was cast as the father in the popular disney studios comedy, "the shaggy dog." then, from 1960 to 1972, he starred on television in "my three sons," a long-running, highly rated series. concurrent with "my three sons," macmurray stayed busy in films, starring as professor ned brainard in disney's "the absent-minded professor" (1961) and in the sequel "son of flubber" (1963). using his star-power clout, macmurray had a provision in his "my three sons" contract that all of his scenes on that series were to be shot in two separate month-long production blocks and filmed first. that condensed performance schedule provided him more free time to pursue his work in films, maintain his ranch in northern california, and enjoy his favorite leisure activity, golf.

bullet::::- ernie krinklesac (voiced by glenn howerton) – ernie is the 17-year-old son of lester and kendra and cleveland jr.'s best friend. ernie first appeared in the episode "pilot" at cleveland and donna's wedding. ernie also appeared in the episode "the one about friends" where ernie befriended cleveland jr. and went so far as to wanting to move in with him. this episode also showed that the krinklesac household was no place for ernie to be raised, and he was taken away by child services. ernie and his father bond when they discover that the only reason they did not want to live together was because they thought the other did not, and lester is able to bring ernie back home. after visiting arnold's whoreshack in "cleveland jr.'s cherry bomb", ernie apparently married a whore known as "two vergine" merline. ernie also appears to work in a slaughterhouse. he apparently is very talented in woodshop (actually building a grandfather clock that doubles as a portal to a fantasy world). he seems to resemble cleveland jr. before he became overweight. cleveland considers ernie "weird" in which he once told lester to "keep your weird son away from my weird son."
