I am still pissed that Mr. Phelps was made a turncoat in the Tom Cruise remake of Mission Impossible.

No James and Peter Aurness there’s a photo of them together in there WW2 uniforms somewhere on the internet. He changed to his mother’s maiden name Graves because he knew everybody would get confused about which Aurness was which. They were pretty close, I’m sure this will be very hard on James Arness.

RIP, Mr. Graves...really enjoyed your work on both series of Mission: Impossible. My local FOX channel beats the crap out of his ‘reverse mortgage’ commercials...

When I netflixed MI, it took a couple of episodes for that to sink in. I liked him. I refuse to waste a dime on the movies.
