M...I was so obsessed with Kelly Robertson as a kid. My friends didnt quite understand me wearing the blazing white Levis. I think I even had His walk down....wish I could still do it. Me and my pals way back when had the thrill of catching him jumping out of a convertible with Susan Saint James tennis racket in hand. They were doing a Name of the Game series in Albuq.as I remember. I Spy was over. We got his autograph and he was so cool with us.

I grew up watching this ma...This one really hit me. I grew up watching this man on TV in all of the various roles he played (villain and hero). Like Tony and others, he really touched something in me as a kid when I watched him on any of the 3 episodes he did on the seminal THE OUTER LIMITS series. <i>Architects of Fear</i> and<i> Corpus Earthling</i> were some of the best on that program, too. But, <i>Demon with a Glass Hand</i> (written by Harlan Ellison) was extraordinary, and his performance as Trent remains haunting.<br /><br />I'm sincerely hoping that NEW BEVERLY CINEMA or American Cinematheque brings back <i>Hickey & Boggs</i> to one of their theaters here in L.A.. It's his only directorial feature film credit and its highly underrated (but that's changing among those on the net - see author's Duane Swierczynski's <a href="SWIERCZYNSKI" rel="nofollow">recent post</a> concerning this). And if they do, I expect I'll catch up with you and Mr. Peel at that showing.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm glad to see you listed A COLD NIGHT'S DEATH for him and all of his various contributions to TV and film (acting and writing). Don't forget about the almost forgotten TV movie, <i>Houston, We've Got a Problem</i> (1974) about the people on the other side of the Apollo 13 mission. He was very effective in that. Man... I'm going to miss him (said so yesterday in a blog post).

Plus the fact that he seemed like a real <i>mensch</i>. In a business where co-stars often snipe behind each other's back, Cosby and Culp often displayed a closeness and genuine sense of affection for each other offscreen.Tony Dayoubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04632329277519635858noreply@blogger.com
