He was one of my favorites on Columbo as well! I don’t remember him being in 6 episodes like A.J. says in this show though. Possibly 3

Glad I watched this in my recommended.... David Cassidy was my childhood crush and have loved him ever since... went to see him locally in concert 10 years or so ago, wonderful!! I have watched a lot about him and his life, and this just confirmed the sadness of his childhood, which haunted him throughout his life... Sad that a father could not be supportive of and proud of, and happy for his son!! The anguish that caused David! Sad!! 😞

Shirley back in the 70s was drop dead gorgeous and throughout her life.

Yummy.

I think there is something about him that was off putting and affected his career trajectory. His acting style was more suited to stage than screen. His jealousy of Shirley and David was pathetic and resulted in some cruelty; no excuse for that. Horrible ending for anyone regardless. 🙁

He was also bisexual which probably wasn't common during his acting years. I believe that info is in one of David's books. It was also said that he was bi-polar which is likely why he self-medicated with booze & pills.

He was so terrible to his sons, especially David. He was jealous of David's success. The sad thing is that David never wanted success. He wanted his father's love and approval more than anything but never got it.

Usualy people like this have had a bad childhood (still no excuse) and never learned to cope emotionally in so you end up with an emotionally immature person who doubled down by self medicating with alchohol. That on top of a personality disorder like narcississism would make him probably pretty hard to be around. Sad because Shirley seems like an amazing person who deserved better.

He did a Columbo episode which begins with him walking toward the camera, and in front of him is a barbeque grill with flames rising up. The image is that Jack Cassidy is walking through fire! Now, that's an old Hollywood trope. The 1932 Doctor Jekyll & Mister Hyde ends with Hyde viewed thru a fire. Still, from what this video said about him, I wonder if Cassidy requested the scene to be shot that way, and if his death was suicide, at least subconsciously.

What a versatile talented actor and handsome, so handsome. Proud of his sons even leaning into jealousy of both David and Shaun. Sad ending....

He and She was ahead of its time.

Jack Cassidy lead a vey sad life. I hope he is now at peace.

I remember Jack from his performances in "Columbo". Not only was he a great actor, he had that, "it" factor on screen, which a lot of greats just dont have. Very underrated talent, and its sad how he passed.

Very cool

Good video so much music is a n necessary

David may have been making so much money, but he filed bankruptcy twice

Jack Cassidy was a troubled man who struggled with his sense of self-worth. It's sad to see how some people can become lost in their own perceptions of the world. Perhaps he turned to drinking to escape from the harsh realities of life and his own insignificance in the grand scheme of things.

I really don't know what women saw in him. What a creep. He wasn't a very good actor, & he wasn't as good a singer as David. His horrible jealous nature is what destroyed him.

He’s in my top 3 Columbo murderers(3 episodes),along with Robert Culp(3 episodes),and Patrick McGoohan(4 episodes).

And America still hasn't learned how bad drinking uncontrollably is.

Wow..? Jackie boy!!! How in heaven are ya!?! Been sometime.. you know me… hating everyone, sooner then later, but guess what my friend- It has all changed now… 180 degrees! Now I watched you , play a drunk on Columbo.. it was startlingly BRILLIANT! My favorite line, you do quote! “Ah there they are! The HOLY TRINITY! And the only thing missing is the heavenly glow, which I shall gladly make up for!” (Close enough!) Your method was perfect. I’m sorry to hear of your passing… 1 year after that devestating divorce!!!! All your sons.. taken ftom you.. and your wife! I get it… but the commentators in this world still smear hearts of GOLD!!!

She divorced him because she couldn’t live with him and didn’t love him. Get your facts and story straight: Shirley Jones found happiness and love with Marty Ingels.

I would stare at him too if he was sleeping next to me only because he was gorgeous. He was not gay he was just curious being around theatre people. Leave him alone and let him rest in peace.❤

The guy was outstanding on Broadway...absolutely superb in several shows. The TV series with RIchard Benjamin shown in this video was an idiotic gig beneath his talents, but he probably figured that was the kinda junk (a la 'Gilligan's Island' and the like) that became popular. Clearly had ego problems though that got the best of him, unfortunately.

I couldn't stand him. There was something very off putting about him; to me there was a very strong element of evil within him that words could not come close putting into words; and his treatment of his sons and wife Shirley was horrible.

I feel bad for his kids, I’m sure they all suffered. I can’t believe.. he didn’t burn down the whole building. Wtf
