Thank you, Steve! You are GREAT at finding all of the appearances of Chan actors and actresses who appear in other productions, etc.! I chanced upon one on Saturday night: J. Carrol Naish, who was Gangor the Snake Charmer in our Chat film for this week, "Charlie Chan at the Circus," as well as the TV Charlie Chan in "The New Adventures of Charlie Chan," was in "Jungle Woman" which was aired on MeTV.
