BEVERLY HILLS, CALIF.–Hugh O’Brian, handsome leading man of films and TV, and notable philanthropist, died in his sleep at his home here. He was 91.
He is perhaps best remembered on screen for the lead role in the 1955-61 series “The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp.” MSTies will remember his role as Harry Chamberlin in the movie in episode 201- ROCKETSHIP X-M.
The L.A. Times has the obituary.
Thanks to Paul (who once met Hugh) for the heads up.
R.I.P. Huge O’Brian
“Oh a Lloyd Bridges movie I guess I can handle that.”
“Lloyd Bridges…with Hugh O’Brian?”
“NOOOOOOOOO and Movie Sign!”
so Hugh O’ Brian lungs are now aching for air.
“Timmy, honey, where’d you put the extra fuel?”
R.I.P. Bolt Stumpjaw. He died at 91 in Bellaire, had a good life.
By all accounts an extremely good guy. Good for him.
Wiki “Hugh O’Brian Youth Leadership Foundation.”
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more Death. Neither sorrow, nor crying. Neither shall there be any more O’Brain; for the former things are passed away.

MSTIES will ALSO remember him as one of three field agents in the dreadfully underrated series “Search,” and its pilot movie “Probe.”
Probe 1 to Probe Control, do you read me ?

for real this time:
had Tony Franciosa from Finder of Lost Loves in “Search”. also had Burgess Meredith in that show too.
Or, as Joel called him, “Hey, Huge O’Brian”…
Impressed that someone else remembers “Search” Fun show that was cancelled too soon
Wow, another member of the Abe Vigoda “I didn’t know he was still alive and now he’s dead” club.
Loved Wyatt Earp show (as old as I am, saw it when first broadcast). He lived a long, and hopefully good, life. R.I.P., Marshall.
