Wow, that was a very interesting read. It was interesting to find out how much of TC was created by Roger. Thanks so much for posting the links.

So THAT'S why there was never a Magnum movie. Universal kept changing hands, and each time the deal had to be built up again from scratch. (It's true, too. Universal has changed hands frequently.)

I'm not sure where to post this request, because it seems as though I've mentioned TC's "first" chopper several times, but I can't find the particular discussion I'm looking for right now.

I can't find the thread where you guys have told me the episodes that the V-tail heli shows up in. And since I can't find that information, can someone post a screenshot of the V-tail IH chopper? I just got another little Hot Wheels 4-inch heli to paint like TC's but this one is the 500C with the V tail. I don't recall the striping on that tail (I have numerous T-tail ones, so this V-tail one was a neat one to add to my collection, but I want to paint it right).

Golf,

Underworld (Season 5) is one of the episodes where you can see the "V" tail.

Okay, here's MGI's new toy -- the V-tail chopper:

Here's what it looked like when I got it -- note the skids are on backwards! Maybe I had a "rare" one and just messed it up by converting it to IH.

Nice job, golf and, as usual you are spot on with your paint job!

Very nice golf!

I love the watch, too.

Hey gang. I've been recording Arli$$, a former HBO show which is now airing on one of the ESPN channels. Recently I saw an episode that featured Roger in it as one of the major characters. I almost didn't bother watching this episode! Thank goodness I decided to check it out before deleting it! He had a nice, meaty role, with lots of lines. And he looked as cool as ever.

Cool, grapeshot! Can you tell us a bit about "Mudcat Burrell"?

grapeshot · #41 Post by **grapeshot** » Thu Aug 14, 2008 10:56 pm

FINALLY, finally, finally! I took my recorded copy of Roger Mosely's appearance on Arliss, edited it down to just his scenes, and put it up on YouTube.

So...now, for your viewing pleasure:

Cool, thanks for doing that, it's always nice to see Mr. Mosley! He doesn't seem to age. (A vampire perhaps?)

Dang! Our Mr. Mosely looks very good. It's hard to believe that he and John Hillerman are very close in age!

Yeah, Ned Ryerson! LOL! God, I LOVE that movie. Groundhog Day is one of the few "Desert Island" movies for me. I could watch that movie a hundred times and never get tired of it!

And you guys are right. Roger sure looks good for his age, doesn't he. Thanks again for the clip grapeshot. Now we just need to get our hands on his appearances in Starsky & Hutch (The Baron), The Rockford Files (Electric Larry), and the many others shows he's appeared in.
