I could see all three of them doing a tongue-in-cheek appearance just for the fun-of-it on TV; something akin to John Wayne's appearance in a bunny suit on "Laugh In." As far as changing up the format and moving from movies to TV the way many movie stars of the 1980's, 1990's, and 2000's have today... not a chance. Of course Barbara Stanwyck, one of the biggest actresses of her day, went to TV in the 1960's with "The Big Valley," but that was hardly the standard back then. Of course women generally have a far shorter life-span when it comes to bankability in movies than men, largely because their "social capital" dries up around age 40 and quickly plummets unless they are a true true talent and can gracefully ease into middle age and their golden years like an actress like Julie Christie or someone along those lines. Men have an vastly longer shelf life as far as that goes, so I don't think there would be the pressures of them to move to TV back in the day the way there could be for women.
Of course today, it's entirely different, because they hardly make movies any more, at least not for the mainstream, so TV is where they have to go to earn a dollar. People like Kevin Costner with Yellowstone or Winona Rider with Stranger Things. Different times though. But I certainly can't see Bogart, Cooper, or Gable moving to the B-leagues of TV during their time and I certainly wouldn't want them to either.
But I do love the bunny outfit!
