I'm re-watching Cagney & Lacey. I'm on season 5, the episode "The Lottery" and I swear I've seen one of the winners with the ticket also played Howard Sprague on The Andy Griffith Show, actor Jack Dobson. I went down the cast list and his name isn't listed. Am I going crazy? He looks just like him and even sounds like him. What's going on? 

The additional cast page for that episode has 9 people listed, including Roxie Roker from The Jefferson's, but no Jack Dobson. It's possible his name was dropped somewhere but I doubt he would have done the role and not had at least some kind of credit. He has quite a few appearances on other shows in that era.
