Dominic Strayer as Caddy and Floyd Strayer as Preston Smartly with harbor seals in La Jolla, California.
Allison Price as Nanny and Floyd Strayer as Preston Smartly go bowling in this zany sitcom, similar to Beverly Hillbillies and Mork and Mindy...classic comedy with a smartly twist!
Floyd Strayer who plays 'Spencer Preston Smartly' was recently interviewed by Susan J. Farese, SJF Communications.
SJF: Tell us about your character in The Smartlys
FS: Spencer "Preston" Smartly (SPS) lives his life like a 19 year old male who never grew up. He's addicted to expensive cars, luxurious houses and fast women!
He's not anything like me personally, which makes it fun to act out a narcissistic playboy character. Coming up with ways to always draw attention to himself. Scheming ways to spend Eric’s millions from the lottery win. Everything he owns has a theme around golf and SPS. Orange is his favorite color.
SJF: What are 3 things about you we don’t know about ‘you’…(not your character)!
FS: Grew up in south central Ohio in the 60’s, joined Marines senior year high school when turned 17 in 1974. Vietnam was still on but ended a month before I left for boot camp. Served 21 years active duty, and have spent 21 years serving the Navy as a civilian.
SJF: What compelled you to audition for The Smartlys?
FS: I had just spent months studying and performing Diary Of Anne Frank as her father Otto Frank. I was in search of comedy to switch gears for awhile. So glad I did. I adore the Smartly family!
SJF: Words of wisdom/advice for actors?
FS: I started stand-up at 58 and acting at 60. My 89 year old mother showed me you are never too old to try something new.
SJF: How can we follow you on social media? Website? Facebook? Twitter? Instagram? Pinterest?
