#thelifeandsadending #thefugitive Mini bio on the actor David Janssen. He is most famous for playing the part of Richard Kimble on the 1960's tv show "The Fugitive".
One of my favorite actors. I didn't see all the movies, etc. he was in. I'm one that watched 'The Fugitive ', every week. Was pulling for him to be proved Innocent.. No idea he was sooo very young when he passed away. 😢
I loved him in the Fugitive and Harry O. To me, he was the quintessential every man kind of actor. He grew more handsome as he aged. I’m sorry that he was taken from us so soon.
I had the BIGGEST CRUSH on David Janssen when he was in the fugitive. I loved that show with HIM in it he had the sexiest voice and was soooo handsome. He was perfect in it too he had it all, except more years to live. 😍 🙏💔
The Fugitive is my favorite TV show. I saw the show in syndicated reruns, and my ex-girlfriend was born on Tuesday August 29th, 1967. That was the day that Dr. Kimble finally confronted the one armed man.
My family watched David Janssen in every television series or made for TV movie that he was in. Early on, his roles in theatrical movies were sometimes somewhat small but he always made the most of whatever part he was given. My favorite movie is Ring Of Fire for which he had the starring role. Great movie though probably not well known and great theme music for it by Duane Eddy. The television medium seemed to be where he really shined and had his greatest popularity. Actors of today just cannot hold a candle to the greats of yesteryear that we have lost.
You are right about smoking and drinking in those days. It took my own mother at age 40 about 5 years before Janssen passed. It saddens me today any time I see young people who have taken up these self destructive addictive habits.
Wow I just came across this…I’m 69 in Michigan and I watched the Fugitive as a kid and I always felt sorry because he didn’t commit the crime and his character was so nice and he was a handsome man I must say..Thanks for posting this because it’s from my generation…😊
"They drank, they smoked a lot of cigarettes", true, but a few worked also themselves to death. Janssen was not a perfect man, but his work will live on and on.
Hi Steve! Thanks for the information about David Janssen. I grew up watching "The Fugitive," as my parents watched it every week. I had a secret crush on David, he was so easy on the eyes! 👀 🙏 RIP DAVID JANSSEN 🙏
Great video. I have that TV Guide at 1:25 and also the 8/22/67 TV Guide "The Fugitive: This Week He Stops Running", part 1 of The Judgment. I collect them like Frank Costanza. 🎬
Handsome successful house in Malibu friends wife...dead at 48...cruel really. So many big name actors died 50's and 60's ...cigarettes biggest culprit...red meat diets..
@@TheLifeandSadEnding Turns out that he was played by one Bill Raisch who, other than his role on The Fugitive, TV Guide named him No. 5 in their 2013 list of The 60 Nastiest Villains of All Time and, he often worked as a stand in for Burt Lancaster - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Raisch
Loved the Fugitive. I thought it was a great series. He passed way too soon.
To be spoken of as being kind after I’m gone would be wonderful.
That’s my goal now at 63.
Oh wow ! He looked so much older than 48!!! I always did like David Janssen . 😇😍 Thankyou 📺🎥⭐️🎭
The Fugitive One of the best series of the 60s Still great today

Always watched Harry O with my late father. Loved David's acting, may he Rest in Peace.

These were the best about a different setting and actors and story every week so the theme was never boring.

Great actor! His funeral was on my Dad's birthday
One of my favorite actors!

Loved David Janssen.Geeat actor ❤️
4 years on the run wow. 🏃♂️ reminds me of another heavy smoker that died age 50 Rod Serling.
Drugs were found in Janssen's system upon his demise.
Love the Fugitive Series! ...
My Dad and I Watched it !! 🙏
#1.... Outstanding 🇺🇲

I liked him in the movie
Ring of Fire
With Frank Gorshin.
I think it’s an underrated movie

Janssen was one of the hardest working actor in Hollywood.
Always enjoyed David Janssen. Such a good looking great actor !
48? Oh my goodness 😳 I did enjoy the Fugitive. Mostly in re-runs. And I remember Harry O.
Good advice from you, Steve. 🙏
Great actor, great show!
Still watching The Fugitive on the Memorable TV Network -44-4. Saw it originally but now still enjoying it. Still exciting!!
I watched it today. It had Brenda Vaccaro in it.
Sorry. The station is 44-3. not 44-4. Memorable television network.
I think he was an Actor’s Actor. Very intense and secure in his craft, and it showed.
In tents is where Arabs live.
My father served with Mr Janssen in the US Army. I did not know about this until my father's death in 1988.
How about that.
"They drank, they smoked a lot of cigarettes", true, but a few worked also themselves to death. Janssen was not a perfect man, but his work will live on and on.

Glad you enjoyed it!

I had a collection when I was a kid and my step mother burned them.
All the stress of being on the run as a fugitive wore him out early
48???? Yikes. I was guessing late 50s, early 60s. Wow, RIP, he sure was handsome.
I was a big fan of Harry O.It should have run more than two years.
He shone by himself. It's a real pity His very early death.
I read a long time ago that David suspected he was the illegitimate son of Clark Gable. I do see a strong resemblance.
Its crazy but i never liked The Fugitive. Oh so sad to die so young at 48 and glad he got a star.
Good advice. Nice videos....
🙏🙏❤️
I remember watching the Fugitive. He seemed to get so close to finding his wife’s killer
I think he showed up once drunk on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.
But at least he got the 1-Armed Man 1st!
I can't believe you said falsely accused.
Only 48? Looked 25 years older.
Handsome successful house in Malibu friends wife...dead at 48...cruel really. So many big name actors died 50's and 60's ...cigarettes biggest culprit...red meat diets..
Whatever happened to the one armed man
The police let him go because he was unarmed. Dad Joke.
