posty Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 http://www.wtopnews.com/index.php?nid=114&sid=1919437 LOS ANGELES (AP) - Robert Culp, the versatile actor who teamed with Bill Cosby in the groundbreaking comedy-adventure TV series "I Spy," has died. He was 79. The actor's agent Hillard Elkins says Culp died after collapsing Wednesday on a sidewalk outside his Hollywood home. Los Angeles police say he hit his head while on a walk and was pronounced dead after arriving at a hospital. A preliminary investigation found that his death is accidental. "I Spy," which aired from 1965 to 1968, was a television milestone. Its combination of humor and adventure broke new ground, and it was the first integrated television show to feature a black actor in a starring role.

I Spy and Mission Impossible actors dead in the same week? Watch out Leslie Neilsen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Soup Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Sad. I am already training myself to be sure footed. When I step over objects, etc. or get out of the shower, I always think, when I'm older, I need to be real careful as some crazy crap can happen if you fall. Seriously. Maybe I'm a little paranoid.
