Magnum P.I. and Chinatown actor John Hillerman dies at 84
I wasn't sure if I should put this here or in the movie news forum because he was in so many classic films (Chinatown, The Last Picture Show, Blazing Saddles) besides his extensive television work, but I knew him first and best from Magnum P.I..
He didn't work for over twenty years though. I'm not sure if it's because he was just done or what. I hope it's the former because he was extremely talented, and I would hope that there was always work available to him if he wanted to work. Anyway even with not working for the past 20 years, most actors would kill to have the kind of career that he had I would imagine.
RIP John Hillerman.

He was always a treat.
