Here's a few little clips form "Berlin Break." It saddens me that this was among John's very last acting projects. Unless he and Jeff were doing this as a personal favor to someone, their respective agents should have been taken out and shot... multiple times.

I'm watching Higgy-Baby in Relentless (1977). He plays the leader of a band of ex Vietnam vets who pull off a bank robbery and are hunted down by the Chief from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. It's not bad so far.

Are you watching that on tv? What network? I've been dying to see that one. All I could find was the promo on YouTube.

Just something a friend of mine downloaded and sent to me. It looks like it was recorded off of television onto vhs.

It isn't bad, but it really isn't anything special. Hillerman doesn't get much of a chance to display his acting talent, I'm afraid, even though he is the movie's main bad guy.


p.s. Gimme some skin, Higgy!

Caught part of an episode of The Love Boat the other day on MeTV and guess who was in it? That's right, John Hillerman! According to the IMDb it was from 1983, right in the middle of his Magnum run. He had the full on Higgy Baby accent working. I mean, dead on Higgins accent. If I didn't know better, it was Higgins taking a vacation on the Pacific Princess! But alas, he was some sort of inspector named Manfred Benusse. He solved the crime and got the girl in the end. Good for him! Claude Akins, Tony Dow and Didi Conn were in it. It was fun. Outside of Tales of the Gold Monkey and the Simon & Simon crossover, I believe this is the only TV show guest appearance he did during the Magnum run.

Funny, I happened to watch A Very Brady Sequel yesterday(I know, but dog gone it that Christine Taylor that plays Marcia has a killer body) and even though it was the mid nineties Hillerman was still doing the Higgins accent and plugging macadamia nuts. Hope he is doing okay..........
