Default RIP — Roger E. Mosley

Sad to see just a bit ago the passing of actor Roger E. Mosley, “TC” from the show Magnum P.I. He was 83. After affects of a car accident apparently last week.

I did not watch a great many Magnum episodes back in the day (college and early career years ate up most of my 1980s TV viewing), but remember him in a number of other shows and such. Always thought he was a great actor in the roles he played.

Sad to see he was in a car wreck.
One of my favorite shows was Magnum P.I.

It is always sad to see anyone die from an accident of any kind, but it is, for some reason, a little more difficult (sad) when it is someone who is up in years, and maybe otherwise fairly healthy, and then die due to something that really did not 'have' to happen. Sometimes you see stories of 95, 97, etc. year old folks dying in car wrecks. To think to live that long and have to go by an 'accident'.

Sounds like he lived a good, full life though. Same wife for nearly 60 years. You don't see that in 'Hollywood' much any more.

Like Earl, I did not catch any of the original episode until season 5.
When it went into reruns(What's a rerun?), I caught all the episodes, including the first five episodes with that different music they used until they went to the rock tune.
