Wally Cox was a beloved character actor who made his mark in television and ranks as one of the mediums most memorable performers. His ability to show his range likely was limited by his short stature, slight frame, and high-pitched voice, which along with his talent for being very funny, made him ideal for comedy parts such as his memorable turn as Professor P. Caspar Biddle in The Bird-Watchers episode of The Beverly Hillbillies (1962) in 1966. His television persona was that of a shy, timid man in horn-rimed glasses who spoke in a tentative, though distinctly enunciated, voice. It was a persona that his long-time friend Marlon Brando said was completely at odds with the real man.Cox always will be remembered as the eponymous Mr. Peepers and the voice of Underdog, but he was an actor of wider talents seldom used by the industry, as can be seen in his turns as the sonar operator in The Bedford Incident (1965) and as the potential suicide Wally Haverstraw in The Bill Cosby Show (1969) episode Goodbye, Cruel World in 1970. Dying unexpectedly on February 15, 1973, from what some newspapers described as an accidental overdose of sedatives but which Marlon Brando in his autobiography said was a heart attack, Wally Coxs cremated remains were kept hidden in a closet by his old friend for three decades. According to Brandos son Miko, both his fathers and Coxs ashes were scattered at the same time in Death Valley, California, in a ceremony following Brandos death, thus reuniting the lifetime friends.
