Amazing life. I used to have his memoir, but I sent it to Lazamataz for Christmas one year, along with potholders.

Those old shows were filmed which means they translate to HD even better than the newer shows that were taped. It’s a crime Baywatch wasn’t filmed because they couldn’t do that again.

Loved the show. To this day i remember a scene no one else can remember so maybe it was a dream....I could swear there was an episode about the end of the war, D-Day or something, where the prisoners were going to rise up and take over the camp. One of the stars armed himself with a handgun and the other said something like “Not Shultz....Not Shultz” as they were found of him and did not want to kill him. It seemed such a serious moment for an otherwise comedy show.

Was I dreaming? Does anyone ever remember a scene like this?

I was recently binge watching the show. Even those who cook help the partisans.

Wow. Sorry to hear. Dying at 96 is still a better fate than Bob Crane’s fate, murdered in Phoenix June 1978.

Well, Bob Crane would be 94 if he were still with us today, Werner Klemperer 102, John Banner 112, Ivan Dixon 91, Larry Hovis 86, Leon Askin 115, Cynthia Lynn (Helga) 85, and Richard Dawson would be 90 three days from today.

Twelve of his immediate family members, his parents and 10 siblings, were killed under the Nazis, Clary wrote in a biography posted on his website.

I can't imagine going on after that......

‘Salut, Monsieur Clary!’ Sad to hear he’s gone. Loved that show. I rarely saw it when it was originally aired, as I was very young. My mother didn’t want me watching any shows about the war. She served as a civilian employee of the RCN in Ottawa during the war.

As a HS student in the late ‘70s, I watched reruns after school at 4:30PM, along with ‘Gilligan’s Island’ reruns at 5:00PM. Excellent shows. What passes for ‘comedy’ is generally nothing but attacks on conservatives and families.

Thank you, Mr. Clary, for your acting in that show.

Hate to here this. I believe he survived a concentration camp as well.
