James Drury, who starred as the no-name, no-nonsense foreman of the Shiloh Ranch on The Virginian, one of the longest-running Westerns in the history of television, died Monday of natural causes. He was 85.

I always thought he and Rick Jason of Combat looked very similar.

No relation.

I think you’re right. Robert Conrad (Wild Wild West) died within the last year, too.

[Carriage Hill]

Thanks for the memories, and RIP, Cowboy.

Watched Once Upon a Time in Hollywood last night. Saw that Clu Gulager is still with us. He had a very small part in the film. He is 91.

Clint and Clu need to make one last westen before they’re gone forever!
