    Robert Blake is guest on 'The Late Late Show with Tom Snyder' during this 1998 interview, not too sure of the date, but it was after the 1997 appearance of Blake with Tom I uploaded earlier. This is yet another eccentric interview with Blake, but Snyder seems to keep him in check and guides Blake from repeating himself. Blake speaks of his alcoholism and drug addiction, and his companion, Colette Duvall; his early years of stealing and the cops; acting with David Lynch, and serving in the Army among other things.
    "Keep rolling, kid, and thanks for joining us tonight."
    -Tom Snyder
    ROBERT BLAKE (b. 1933) is an American actor. He is known for his starring roles in the film In Cold Blood and the U.S. television series Baretta. Blake began acting as a child, with a lead role in the final years of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's Our Gang (Little Rascals) short film series from 1939 to 1944. He also appeared as a child actor in 22 entries of the Red Ryder film franchise. In the Red Ryder series and in many of his adult roles, Blake was cast as an American Indian or Latino character. After a stint in the United States Army, Blake returned to acting in both television and movie roles. Blake continued acting until 1997's Lost Highway in a career that author Michael Newton called "one of the longest in Hollywood history." Blake may be best known for his Emmy Award-winning role of Tony Baretta in the popular television series Baretta (1975 to 1978), playing a street-wise, plain clothes police detective. The show's trademarks included Baretta's pet cockatoo "Fred" and his signature phrases-notably "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time", "That's the name of that tune", and "You can take that to the bank." After Baretta ended, NBC offered to produce several pilot episodes of a proposed series titled Joe Dancer, in which Blake would play the role of a hard-boiled private detective. He continued to act through the 1980s and 1990s, mostly in television, in such roles as Jimmy Hoffa in the miniseries Blood Feud (1983) and as John List in the murder drama Judgment Day: The John List Story (1993), which earned him a third Emmy nomination. Blake starred in the 1985 television series Hell Town, playing a priest working in a tough neighborhood. He also had character parts in the theatrical movies Money Train (1995) and played the chilling and sinister Mystery Man in David Lynch's Lost Highway (1997)...In 2005, (8-years after the above interview) Blake was tried and acquitted of the 2001 murder of his second wife, Bonnie Lee Bakley. On November 18, 2005, he was found liable in a California civil court for her wrongful death. (Wikipedia)
    Tom Snyder (1936-2007) was an American television personality, news anchor, and radio personality best known for his late night talk shows Tomorrow, on the NBC television network in the 1970s and 1980s, and The Late Late Show, on the CBS Television Network in the 1990s. 'Tom Snyder was a pioneering figure in broadcast journalism who brought a no non-sense attitude to broadcast television news. Loved by millions, respected by peers, and resisted by the executives for speaking his mind.'

  • @wakeupamericaandresist2413

    Robert has always been a great story teller and his honesty has been real, nothing but respect!! As crazy as he is I respect his honesty, we as fans may never know the real truth, but I respect his acting and his truth ? His whole life may have been an act ? Either way to me I have enjoyed this guy.

    Has made an impression on me and other sensitive people his whole life . He had A way of making you feel real feelings and not being ashamed to say them . I patterned or tried to pattern my life after him. He made it ok to feel. He was always looking for what his purpose was and I think, along with his incredible acting roles like In Cold Blood , that was it. I wish I could have met him but I was too introverted to try. A real classic individual. One of a kind. I hope when he Died he was forgiven and able to forgive his family. Robert, wherever you are you made a difference! RIP

    Man, I really feel for the guy here - especially seeing how this is a year before he met the grifter.

    I like Mr. Blake's honesty and open way of talking. The only thing is he needs to watch what he says...he seems to have no filter on what he says and he has lost jobs and been banned from many places due to his temper and verbal outbursts.

    I wore different colored Tee Shirts all through 5th and 6th grade.
    I was short and stocky and he was the coolest dude on the planet.

    When Tom interviews norm macdonald, norm says that the funniest thing he saw on Tom's show was "that time Robert Blake came on and told that long b***s**t story" so i am going to watch all of them to get the joke. I have a feeling that the joke was explained by Tom when he said that happened 6 times but IDK.

    He is always preforming. It’s like he never learned how to be real person

    I'm writing this in 2023, and Robert Blake died earlier this year. What is it about *most* people who start out as child-actors that makes their lives so so hellish?
