Peter Graves died today: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/15/arts/television/15graves.html

I really, really need to rent Airplane! again.  And he was Marshall Dillon's little brother, who knew?
"But there's no use crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying 'till you run out of cake
And the science gets done, and you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive."

What? For serious? Surely this must be a joke.

JeyNyce

Yes it's serious and stop calling him Shirley, Roger!

He will be missed!

I don't call for tech support, I AM TECH SUPPORT!
It's the internet, don't take it personal!

The Hitman

NOOOOOO!!! This is the worst news ever! He will definitely be missed.

One movie he was in I really liked was Stalag 17. Highly recommend watching that movie. William Holden was the star, but Peter Graves was really good in it.

(Hopefully TV Land will air a Mission: Impossible marathon, but I'm not counting on it)

I loved the original MI.  It must be one of my top 10 all time favorite TV series, and Peter Graves could do a good job even in a cheesy role.  I have one of his early sci-fi films.  It's lame, but not because of Peter.
