Re: Martin Milner Died

As a young teen, I think he was in the 1940s 0r 50s movie "Life with Father."

I liked George Maharis better in _Route 66_, but I loved Milner in _Adam-12_, a show I never saw when it was originally running, but became addicted to in reruns years later. He was a good actor.

I watched him in "Adam 12" with Kent McCord. RIP Martin. It's hard to believe he was 83.

Ironic we just watched Martin Milner in a Columbo re-run. He was (dastardly) Jack Cassidy's writing partner in the episode.

Oh, I saw that too on the Columbo Marathon Saturday. I'd already forgotten I just saw him!

Kudos to him for being married to the same woman for many, many years.

IMO he had All-American, boy-next-door looks.

That's funny you saw it Saturday. We saw it today on some obscure station as a single Columbo episode..

That is funny. The Hallmark Movies and Mysteries station (shows a lot of old TV shows - that's where I watch Murder She Wrote every weeknight) had a Columbo Marathon on Saturday. I watched all of it except when I watched Cedar Cove!

Columbo is on every weekday morning at 7:00 a.m. (eastern time zone).

Thanks! But my girlfriends at that time were preschoolers like me so probably not. ....but older girls...probably. he was the typical Irish cop with the twinkling blue eyes. Awesome at his job with the uncanny ability to get along with just about everyone. .even the guys he arrested would say "Joe is alright. "

LOL Marien! I apologize for presuming you are as old as I am! I'm so old I remember beat cops...back in the day when I lived in a smaller area and everyone pretty much knew each other. The one I remember was named Officer Sal...I remember him because he had a crush on my aunt! He had the knack of breaking up a confrontation where everyone felt respected and justice was served. We also had mounted police in the nearest city. My husband and I are very supportive of our local police officers (whether they are handsome or not LOL).

I have been watching Adam 12 for months now on the COZI channel. He certainly started as a young actor and I've seen him in many movies recently.

Martin and Kent both stayed married to their wives since the beginning. I remember watching the show when it came out but I really enjoy it more now.

Then I watch Dragnet. Kent McCord started on Dragnet as a young cop and then went to the Adam 12 series because Jack Webb created and directed Adam 12.
