Peter Graves Dead

[astroron]

Some may remember him best for his "Mission Impossible" TV series,but I remember him first and fore most for "Cobb and Co" :)
A very strong looking actor and a good one to boot.

Mr Phelps no longer I remember him also in Cobb and Co as a kid

"Do you like movies about Gladiators Billy"? :D
One of the more versatile Hollywood actors and always a belly-laugh on the Carson -era "Tonight" show.
Vale!!

Bummer...

The Captain in "Airplane!"/"Flying High" was disturbing black comedy. :)

Like Ron, I also remember the old Cobb & Co.

Wow, that's a trip down memory lane... Loved the mission impossible series as a kid. One of a kind. 83 isn't bad. Heart attack after a good meal with the family. That's a clean quick way to go I reckon.

I forget the details but apparently some site had a page which, when loaded, had a still from a video about Graves with the caption "This video will commence in 5 seconds."

Oh, I see Scraps is a BOY dog......

Such a shame, classic movie and a classic actor

What a shame, he was a great actor.

His serious face in the Flying high movies was a high point.
