Fans of the 60's TV series, "I Spy" will be saddened to hear of the passing of
Robert Culp.
Culp played alongside with Bill Cosby in the television series, important historically
because it was the first U.S. television program to star a black actor.
Fans may also remember that Culp wrote some of the episodes, including the
very first.
It was one of my favourite TV shows. It was very funny, very cool and hip
and the ad-libbed style of humor between Culp and Cosby made one sense that
these two guys were having a great time doing it.
Plus it had one of the coolest 60's spy series theme music openings -
