The only thing I ever saw him in was Bogdanovich’s What’s Up Doc. He had a small part but funny as hell.

(sigh) I always wanted then to do a Magnum P.I. reunion show. Too late now.

R.I.P. John Hillerman.

Lived to a ripe old age. Long enough to see his children, grandchildren, and possibly great grandchildren grow and prosper.

He was a great character actor, turned up in just about everything in the 70s. Paper Moon, The Last Picture Show, Chinatown, and on and on. RIP John Hillerman.

Sad news. RIP. A friend of my family was on the crew of Magnum PI. We visited the set in Hawaii when I was a kid and my mother got a great picture laying on Magnum’s bed. Without Tom Selleck of course. Real family lore there. LOL.

He also portrayed the character Simon Brimmer on the Ellery Queen TV series.
A really good series that didn't make it.

Damn, not many left from Blazing Saddles.

Burton Gilliam is the only one that I know of.
