| has gloss | eng: Uncle Petrie or, Petrie J. Martin is a fictional character in the long running American television series Lassie. Petrie is portrayed by George Chandler. The character was created to fill the "grandfatherly" role once occupied by George Cleveland as George "Gramps" Miller in the first several seasons of the show. Cleveland's death during fourth season filming forced producers to revamp the show with a complete cast change and an entirely new storyline. The Miller family of the first three seasons was dropped from the plot and a young couple, the Martins, brought in to buy the Miller farm and adopt the Miller foster child, Timmy. |
