Actor William Reynolds, who may be best remembered for his six seasons one TV’s “The F.B.I.,” died August 24 following a short illness. He was 90.
Reynolds portrayed F.B.I. agent Tom Colby on the hit ABC series from 1967 to 1973, joining the show in its third season. After he left the show, he also retired from show business and pursued a business career.
MSTies will remember his role as Gordon Hawthorne in the movie in episode 805- THE THING THAT COULDN’T DIE.
Thanks to Gordon for the heads up.

I haven’t seen that episode. I’ll have to check it out.
RIP, William Reynolds.
He was a good actor and the chemistry between his character and Jessica was very believable.
I saw his picture in an obituary and said, “anyone that square-jawed and black-and-white has to have been in an MST movie.”
He also starred in one of the better “Twilight Zone” episodes, “The Purple Testament”. He played a U.S. Army officer in the Pacific Theater in WW II who is suddenly able to tell who will be killed in battle.
He also played Jane Wyman’s son Ned in one of my “go-to” camp films, Douglas Sirk’s “All That Heaven Allows.” Just watched it the other day. Sad to see another member of the Golden Age pass away… now he’s mixing excellent martini’s in Movie Star Heaven.
