Roger Davis Facts
In July 2006, he and his "Alias Smith and Jones" (1971) costar, Ben Murphy, were guests at the Western Film Fair in Charlotte, North Carolina along with Marjorie Lord, Mark Goddard, Steve Kanaly, Ronnie Schell, Coleen Gray, Russ Tamblyn, Tom Reese, and Cheryl Rogers.
Davis is credited with "And Introducing Roger Davis as Stephen Foster Moody" in the opening credits of The Young Country (1970) (TV), the original of two pilots for "Alias Smith and Jones" (1971). The credit was unusual as Davis had been appearing regularly on television (as well as in movies) for eight years, including recurring roles on two TV series in the early 1960s, and had been a regular on the popular day-time soap "Dark Shadows" (1966) for the previous two years. The pilot, which was featured as a TV Movie of the Week on ABC, co-starred Davis' friend Pete Duel. ABC rejected the pilot and the producers went back to the drawing boards, replacing Davis with Ben Murphy in a revised concept for a series that paid homage to the movie blockbuster Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969). Known for his voice-over work, Davis was given the narrator of "Alias Smith and Jones" in the first season and a-half, eventually taking over for Duel as "Joshua Smuth" after
He replaced Pete Duel as Hannibal Heyes on the TV series "Alias Smith and Jones" (1971) following Duel's suicide in December 1971. George Peppard was also in the running for the part of Hannibal Heyes.
