Jack Kelly on TV - Alias Chauncey Beauregard!
Hey, another YouTube find - JK in Alias Smith and Jones! Although his character's name--Dr. Chauncey Beauregard--may have a Maverick-like ring to it, the doc is actually the kind of guillible mark who usually got fleeced by Bart and Bret. And, if Kid Curry and Hannibal Heyes seem like a couple of Mavericks, well, Alias Smith and Jones was produced by Roy Huggins, creator of Maverick, and this episode was written by one "John Thomas James"--a.k.a. Roy Huggins.

Yes, this series was an utterly unsuccessful attempt to recapture Maverick's sparkle (although I have to admit that I never watched it for more than a moment or two).
