I loved watching the High Chaparral as a kid, and Monolito was my favorite character.

It was so funny when he and his sister, Victoria, got into their silly spats.

One of my favorite TV characters on one of my favorite TV shows (along with Linda Cristal, RIP). Rest in peace, Manolito.

I liked that show, too.

And, Mano was my favorite character.

On second thought, since I was a teenager, Mano's beautiful sister - Linda Cristal - was my favorite character.

Linda Cristal 1967

Wow - just realized that Linda Cristal died in June 2020.

She almost made it to 90.

Lived in Beverly Hills and died at home.

A COVID victim, perhaps?

Naw...

She died of a broken heart.

After a long summer with her I decided to move on from her craziness.

Beautiful and passionate woman but, too much baggage.

She held hope until last year and just gave up.

I miss her sometimes...

I enjoyed The High Chaparral as a kid. I remember Darrow as well as Leif Erickson for no other reason than convincing Marta Victoria Moya Peggo Burges aka Linda Cristal 20 year his junior to marry him (the show, not in real life)

I liked the guy on screen as well.

I remember him from a couple of episodes of Time Trax and other things.

RIP.
