Wonderful tribute to David Janssen - Thanks for compiling it and posting the video.
One of the greatest Actors of All Time 💯
As a dedicated David Janssen fan for almost 40 years,I must say that was one terrific tribute.Many angles were explored and tastefully done. There were clips, movies,and quotes from and about David I was not aware of. Thank you for the time that was put in by the crew.

Thank you 66 Kimble.
One of the best tributes I've seen of a special person thank you
he sure paid his dues before he was an "instant success". the more i watch of his work, the more i appreciate how really hard working and talented he was. At 48 he had aged terribly, but he lived so many lifetimes crammed into one! the life style back then: work hard. drink hard. smoke hard. a shame as so much was better back then too. the food, but then there never was a Camelot
HarryO. Loved it
Bravo! This was a great tribute to one of my favorite actors. Thank you so much!
Forever young bro David Jansen enjoy your new life thanks for being one like us every day people great actor thanks for moves amor Rey David say hi to all the saints
Just so Great!!! Learned so much about David his career,his loves and of course what a great guy he was !
Dec 13 2022 How Interesting I Loved All The Pictures I Could Watch For Hours Like So Many Others I Remember Watching The Fugitive On TV When It First Appeared In The 60’s Still Watch On Cable TV
loved him great actor.
this is a sad story of a man so young and talented to pass away.
I, too have been a fan......I remember the day he died my friend called me, i just couldn't understand how that could have happened.....I've been in love with him since Richard Diamond.....Your documentary was appreciated and more in-depth, informative than I could have expected. Thank you and rest in peace, David.......love.
Soy una eterna fan enamorada de David Janssen desde que yo tenía 10 años... Hoy en día sigo viendo la serie y adoro ver a Richard Kimble. Un enorme abrazo a la distancia desde, Lima Perú a todos los fans del mundo que aman DAVID JANSSEN 🇵🇪
Brilliant! Just brilliant..... More life stories should be done this way. 👍
This was fantastic! My fav actor ever
Thank you: I am only 15 minutes into this: but as a fan.. I know that this is the BEST, most thoughtful, thorough show made of him that I have seen. I believe that he would be and is still amazed at how beloved he is…Thanks again!!! ❤️😇🙏✌️
I've watched every episode of The Fugitive, its the best series ever made in the golden age of serial television. It was a cultural phenomenon, everyone was tied to their seats to discover the identity of the one-armed man. It also sold the idea of American ideals of the terrible perfidy of social injustice which was and still remains so compelling.
This is the finest specimen of a man. I wish he would have had more time to enjoy a life away from Hollywood.
A wonderful tribute to a fantastic actor! My best friend (Dave Brown) and I hosted annual "Fugitive" conventions in LA during the 90's and many of the individuals who worked with David attended, including a lot of his fans. People like Roy Huggins (Creator), Alan Armer (Producer) Jacqueline Scott (Kimble's sister), Bud Brill (location manager), Serge Krizman (art director), Walter Grauman, Stanford Whitmore (Writer), Richard Anderson, Carol Rossen (actress), Elliott Shaprio (David's driver), Steve Lodge (costumer), Bob Rubin (Assistant Director), Carl Barth (editorial consultant), Pete Rugolo (Music), Andrew Prine (actor), Ed Faulkner, (actor), David's family - his half-sister, Teri and Jill and his mother Berniece and many others. Everyone spoke so highly of David and as you highlighted several times in your tribute, what a gem to work with and how professional he was. Again, thanks for this wonderful tribute and the time and effort you went through to showcase the many talents David possessed and brought to stage and screen!
Whomever you are: you done him proud and Blessings to you..and him and family and friends and fans. Excellent and a job well done to u and well deserved for David….

I will never forget him this actor he was the best David passed it away so very young that was a shock a 1974 I was living in New York I was born in an airline at LaGuardia Airport it just so happened he was on the same plane as me I got the shake hands with him and say hello he was such a friendly man I know it's been many many years since he passed away but I'll never ever forget him I sometimes cry for him I've only met him on that plane and it was it he was headed somewhere else on that Airline I wish I would have known him he was a very kind and gentleman so sad he passed it away at a young age that's tragic David may you rest in peace with our Lord Jesus Christ and In the Arms of an Angel yes I still wish you were here I'll never ever forget you for as long as I live so sad David was the best actor that ever lived it no one on the face of the Earth will ever take his place that's for sure and for some reason I don't know why but in some of his films which were the best but he always seemed sad about something no one knew why and I suppose we'll never know again may you rest in peace David with our Lord Jesus Christ and In the Arms of an Angel hopefully I'll get to meet you again when I get to heaven

I met DJ near the Country Club 1977 in Palm Springs. His look was impressive, and I had a crush on him. The rest is history, I will always love him as a human being and actor ❤.
Thanks so much for this posting. It is spectacular! By far the best I've seen on David Janssen. Pictures I've never seen before, and some information I thought to be true, but wasn't sure. Namely, him and Angie Dickinson. I purchased Volume 2 of Michael Phelps's book. I liked the book, but I question why he assisted his ex-wife, who David referred to as "that bitch", with her memoir. Seems a little sketchy if he was truly your friend. Being a teen when he passed away, my favorite work of his will always be Harry O, and his earlier show U.S Treasury. He was a hella hard worker, but I believe stress took its toll on his heart. May he rest in eternal peace....😔💖

I have serious doubts about the credibility of Michael Phelps's books. I purchased Volume 1 and I caught a so-called "conversation" that was so egregiously factually wrong that it is very difficult to not conclude that the author simply made it up, and I called the author out for it on Amazon. Every reader needs to make his or her own judgment about Phelps's books - my own is not favorable.

Yes, DJ worked and played hard. His 1st wife Ellie was nice (in my opinion!), but, people are changing 🙄. I guess, after work, he wanted some relaxation and not additional responsibilities or stress, the reason, he bought the Beach house in Malibu. His 2nd wife was not the best fit, a lot of action and parties. I have my doubts, if or not he passed away by natural course? Everything was too much "show". DJ will never be forgotten 🙏❤.
My Mom Had Seen David Janssen At The Airport,David Janssen RIP.
Really a remakeble Person. He accompanied my whole life.
Excellent job - I am a huge fan of David Janssen and have seen most of his movies and TV series - I'm glad someone finally did an indepth biography on him - very well done and very interesting (and lots of cool photos) - I have seen most of his pre-Fugitive material (1955 - 1963) but you have listed a few that I have never seen before - I will have to watch those - thanks very much for posting.
Fantastik work..Thanks a lot...
Wow I have to say this is an absolutely fabulous tribute and the background music is great the jazz is great wonderful production

Maybe have watched too many crime documentaries, so that my immediate line of thinking was: If maybe something was added to his food or drink; was an autopsy and/or toxology screening done, and if he had life insurance; to whose benefit?
Thank you. This is a wonderful, informative, tribute. One minor detail: at 9:49, the movie title should be "Lafayette Escadrille".
Un buen reportaje para alguien que fue buen actor gracias x compartir
i like all his movies he was great
Really a nice effort to pay regards to our favorite hero, David Jenssen. Any how a voice commentry is also needed. Thanks for uploading
Made for T.V. movies were great to watch. David did a lot of T.V. work. Too bad he smoked a lot. But back in the day when smoking was considered cool and inner demons that were never fully reconciled .I am watching Harry O on You Tube.
Excelente !!!, inédito !!!!
Was his relationship with Clark Gable an open secret? That's the best story in Hollywood.

David's first wife was Ellie. I am surprised she was not mentioned. Unfortunately, he was a heavy smoker and drinker. It is such a shame that he died so young
It was a real shame that he died so young.
@From Flamingo - Who is the guitarist and music group playing the jazz guitar and organ version of 'Take Me Out To The Ballgame at 38:12? Very nice rendition! Sounds like Herb Ellis on guitar. Please let me know. Thanks!
Great work and a lot of it - but his early years need some fleshing out. He's in Nebraska, then he's playing basketball for an unidentified team then he's in the Korean war then we find he was in a bunch of movies as a teen.... A little more detail and a little better chronology would be good. Oh, and Patrick MacNee died at the age of 93 in 2015.
Great bio but isn't that Dean Jones at 15:45?

Just came to the comments section to say exactly that.
The fugitive had great stories of hope and helping others. Harry O Was a little cold. And writting not great..the fugitive kept you in suspense and intrigued
If his injured knee, prevented him from playing sports, then it would've kept him, out of military service, too. Maybe, he wasn't injured as much, as we're led to believe. Possibly, he used that as an excuse, to get out of sports (I can't, blame him🙄). It's believable, his dad (like some, unintelligent father's do) was pushing, the sports agenda. One thing, though. Some partial narration, would of been okay, as there was too much reading to do. Which is alright, if you're a reader. I couldn't pick out, David's charature @40:56, after the note telling us, 'see if you can find him'. You should of circled his picture, like you did, in his high school photographs. I assume you're British, hence the misspellings. Plus, this was a little long😴. But overall, a very thorough, bio-doc👍!! Yes, always liked David in most everything he did. Especially, "Ring Of Fire", with Frank Gorshin.
In which year David Janssen died ?
