Actress Connie Hines died today. She was 78. Many of us fondly remember Miss Hines as Wilbur's wife on the TV show, Mr. Ed. The show was a sitcom about a talking horse and his owner - Wilbur. Hines considered her role to be just getting a steady paycheck as the storylines focused more on the relationship of both Wilbur and Mr. Ed than her. She also said that playing the same role wasn't the greatest part in the world. The series ended in 1966 and she continued to guest star in other TV shows until her retirement in 1971.
