My brother and I loved watching ‘Black Sheep Squadron’. RIP Robert.

RIP Robert. “The Wild Wild West” was my favorite show in the mid 60’s. I have recordings of all the episodes.
I was absolutely fascinated with The Wild Wild West reruns at 3 PM daily back in my High School days while Watergate was going on. Such color and comic violence- adventure and triumph. Jim and Artie.
Bummer. I have seen select episodes of Wild Wild West but the first role I saw him in was Officer Hummell in Jingle All the Way.
“You broke my little mirror.”
Loved him in “The Wild Wild West” but I think my favorite TV role of his was as a murderous fitness trainer in an episode of “Columbo.” Watching his smarmy character try to get Lt. Columbo to exercise, drink weird health foods, and quit smoking, all while thinking he was outsmarting the detective, was priceless.
