Performers include: Dwayne Hickman, Frank Faylen, Florida Friebus, Bob Denver
Description: Hickman in Dobie Gillis was among the first leads to play a teenager on an American television program. Dobie Gillis broke ground by depicting elements of the contemporaneous counterculture, particularly the Beat Generation, primarily embodied in a stereotypical version of the "beatnik," mainly in the character of Maynard G. Krebs, portrayed by actor Bob Denver.
