I had a huge crush on McCloud. For reals.
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

McCloud, that's right!
Dennis Weaver! Much like Falk (or Telly Savalas for that matter), an eccentric character actor getting a popular lead TV role. Columbo definitely rocked in it's format though. I LOVED that we generally (there were a couple of exceptions) knew exactly who and how they dunnit, and we were watching the how he catches them. In his inimitable style.

I loved McMillan and Wife, but that was during a period in which a wanted to grow up to be Susan St. James. Also, Rock Hudson on a bicycle chasing a suspect over the San Francisco hills is one of the great chase scenes.

I saw McMillan and Wife on after school repeats, after Susan St. James was on Kate and Allie. I also think it might have been after Rock Hudson died, but I am not sure of the time line of it.

Don't know if it was mentioned before, but Peter Falk died.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I loved all those shows! MacMillan and Wife, McCloud, Columbo, dang, that takes me back. I'm so old. Off to Netflix!
