Is this true?

Someone told me lately that the little “homely” boy who used to be on Gentle Ben…years ago, is the brother of Ron Howard. Hard to believe.

Clint Howard was in it.

Yes, his name is Clint Howard, he’s informally known as “King of the Bits” for being in a zillion movies with only a line or two.

Their dad is actor Rance Howard.

FTR, Ron isn’t exactly “comely” is he? IMHO.

Apparantly so.

Clint Howard is really ugly, and he is in a lot of stuff.

You can usually count on seeing him in his brother’s films. IMDb shows 16 joint ventures starting with Eat My Dust!, Ron Howard’s first directorial effort.

Ron Howard may not be another Mel Gibson, but Opie Taylor was a lot cuter than Mark Wedloe.
