Jones' signature Disney role would be as race car driver Jim Douglas in the successful "Herbie" series: he appeared in two feature films, "The Love Bug" (1968) and "Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo" (1977), as well as the short-lived television series "Herbie, the Love Bug" (1982) and the made-for-TV movie "The Love Bug" (1997). In 1969, Jones was the host of a short-lived sketch-comedy hour on ABC-TV titled "What's It All About, World?" that became a variety show midway into its run, when the title was changed to "The Dean Jones Variety Hour".
