TV's private dick of death |
Robert Urich
(1946—2002)
One of the few dead guys on this list, and from all accounts a sweetheart torn from this world (by cancer) way too soon. I remember it like yesterday when his Vega$ (that show was the first Ke$ha) character "Dan Tanna" showed up on Charlie's Angels, and his handsome, sleepy-eyed face lit up a surprising number of semi-successful '70s/'80s TV series for many a future queer. And our moms. Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice (1973), S.W.A.T. (1975—1976), Soap (1977), Tabitha (1977—1978), Vega$ (1978—1981), Gavilan (1982—1983), Spenser: For Hire (1985—1988), Lonesome Dove (1989), American Dreamer (1990—1991), Crossroads (1992—1993), Spenser TV movies (1994—1995), The Lazarus Man (1996), The Love Boat: The Next Wave (1998), Emeril (2001)
