Neil Loves Johnny Crawford!

I've had more than my share of gay crushes, but my first was Johnny Crawford in "The Rifleman."


This was back in the late 50's when I was around 10-years old.

I've loved him ever since, and always will.

The only time it was embarrassing?

Explaining to my parents why I collected his records into my teens.

Does this bring back memories. I had a major crush on Johnny. However, I can't remember he was my first or it was Cubby from the Mickey Mouse Club.

So long ago ... :(

I don't remember who my first was. I was 3 when The Rifleman started in '58, so I didn't get to enjoy the series until it was syndicated. But Mark McCain was a drop-dead, GORGEOUS dream!! He certainly was one of my first celebrity crushes.

You're not alone, although I can't say if Johnny Crawford was my first crush. I come to your blog now, because tonight I just happened to think of Johnny Crawford, and was online collecting pictures of the guy. I still remember him in the movie that was a B-movie, supposedly he did full-frontal nude. I may even look that movie up to rent it, if I can find it. It was called The Great Texas Dynamite Chase of 1976. That would'a put Johnny in his 30s, but he looked to be collegiate or even in his teens. Such a handsome man.
