| Posted: | | | | Wow. He was great. Thank you for that link -- beyond The Fugitive and the absymal Space: 1999, I knew of little else that he had done. | | | If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.

| Posted: | | | | Fine actor. Check out the flair he brought to "A Piano in the House" from the original Twilight Zone. I'll bet he started on the stage. |

| Posted: | | | | I remember how astonished I was to first hear Barry on a talk show after watching The Fugitive. Never knew he was British before. His posing as an American predated Hugh Laurie by about 40 years.

| Posted: | | | | @Chazcdc54 I'm not a good judge of accents, but when I heard Barry Morse on a talk show during the first run of The Fugitive he sounded a whole lot more like Michael Caine than one of the McKenzie Brothers (form SCTV for the younger readers out there. Gosh, that was 25 years ago now. ) His bio says he was born in London's East End, so that'd make him a Cockney to the core. | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole) Badges? We ain't got no badges.
