RIP Hugh O'Brian of Lady Killer


He played Tony Mann of the Feline Club and made Sabrina his "senior citizen" girlfriend.

Yeah, I saw that too. Good ole' Wyatt Earp. He lived to be quite old, 91 I believe it said.

He was perfect for the role of Tony Mann, I think. He definitely had a sort of Hugh Hefner look about him back then.

Did you know that the actress who played his young girlfriend in that episode and also Rita in "Angels on Skates" died fairly young, like around age 45? Her name was Lory Walsh and I read that she died of a drug and alcohol overdose. Sad.

that was an interesting episode. Sabrina as opposed to Kelly or Jill genuinely intrigues Tony. I thought it would have been interesting to have Duncan leave the series and go off with him. Being Hollywood he certainly looked better than Hef.
