However, it was his dramatic debut in Pilot No. 5 where Kelly played an antagonist that portended this appearance on Suspense. In “The Man Who Couldn't Lose” Kelly plays Leonard Snell, gambler, two-timer, and all around heel who runs into a string of good fortune that causes the audience to hate him more and more as the play goes on.
