@Pearlee - I remember discussing him from that Fugitive episode.  Sorry to hear this.  I recently saw him in an episode of Hazel.  Very handsome.  R.I.P.

@twinsister  I'm glad you remembered that discussion. At the time I looked him up to see whether he was still alive, which of course he was, and I was surprised.

Back in the 1960s I used to get him mixed up with Robert Drivas, another handsome Robert  The Fugitive guest star (Man in a Chariot as the young lawyer. plus an upcoming Season 4 episode). But since Drivas died so young I stopped getting them mixed up!

Pearley, I thought I was the only one who heard of Robert Drivas, my GF had a huge crush on him. Remember him as Janssen's son in the 1969 film, Where It's At, took place in Vegas and Rosemary Forsythe played girlfriend to Janssen.  Drivas was only a few years younger than Janssen.

I remember him after seeing the picture but had no clue what his name was. He was in lots of TV programs through his career.

@Pearlee  done?

@Carolina925  It is really amazing how his name was unknown despite his doing so much work on TV for decades!

@Shelbelle  Did you watch that Fuge epi Man in a Chariot when we did (1st epi of Season 2)?  Drivas was so great in that as he also is in the Season 4 epi. I never saw that film with Janssen. You probably know Forsyth was his real life girlfriend who lived with Janssen between his 2 marriages.

Yes, that is why I mentioned Forsythe. They fell in love making this film. I was watching Fugitve on occassion when ME TV had it on at midnight, but once they moved it to later, I stopped, so I dont remember Drivas from anything other than Where It's At. I am guessing Janssen may have been instrumental in getting him the role in the film. Janssen owned a very posh hotel  casino in Vegas, and Drivas was his disagreeing son.

@Pearlee - I remember Robert Drivas.  He was in a lot of 1960's shows.  Sad he died so young.

@SeaMaiden 

Thank you for taking the time to post photos.   

IMO, threads should always have photos when posting about a passing.

@Tinkrbl44. Then by all means feel free to do so when posting about a passing.  Glad it is just your opinion and not a board requirement.
