A moment of silence.

Wonderful tribute, Tom.

Another excellent tribute.

One of my favorite old school actors of all time. Here's to Colonel Potter.

Great actor. He will be missed. I feel like watching a MASH marathon in his honor now.

He was great as Col. Potter, and very funny as that loony General Steele on MASH.

*salutes the Colonel and listens to "Suicide is Painless" over and over*

Another great gone by the wayside

D: i loved him in M.A.S.H. he will be missed :( RIP

One of his movies was on TCM about a week ago too

Nothin' but respect for the man. My condolences to his family and friends.

A great one lost.

What blows my mind is that I'm 47, and I was a little kid watcihng Dragnet, then he appears on MASH years later, etc. AND HE NEVER AGED!!! He was just as old looking in Dragnet as he was in MASH! A-may-zin!

I remember both of these rolls. A great actor, loved him!

I knew him from reruns of Dragnet before I ever saw or heard of MASH. Fantastic actor.

Awesome actor. :) Loves watching him in MASH.

An today, Batman's artist died.

A really fitting tribute to an actor who's career touched so many of us. Thanks Rabbi.

He was my Silent Nod on this week's news... I couldn;t NOT do it.

I loved that man as Colonel Sherman T. Potter. ;;^;; He lived a very long life. I was surprised to see him in a MASH reunion last year when they hosted a MASH marathon. I agree wtih you he was an incredible actor that fit the role just right. I loved him in Dragnet and as the military general from Disney's Cat from Outer Space. Even from the Apple DUmpl'n Gang as the Sherriff, town barber, and judge.

WHat I loved most about his was his voice and hair. Even those glasses, he had a strong character whether he had those things on or off.

Rest in Peach Harry Morgan. Thank you for the wonderful memories. We will miss you.

as Col. Potter..."Regular Army" but having a humane touch.

as Detective Bill Gannon...a quiet comic contrast to Joe Friday's stern approach to the law. A hypochrondriac, a health nut, a little henpecked...but just as dedicated to catching the bad guys as Friday.

Harry Morgan also starred in the first successful spinoff sitcom show..."Pete and Gladys" which was spun off from the series "December Bride".

RIP, Colonel Potter.

*salutes*

96 years old...

Harry Morgan was one of those rare character actors that could shine, even in minor or cameo roles.

It was said that Harry's brilliant 'over the top' performance as wacky General Steele in an earlier episode of M*A*S*H led to him getting the permanent cast role of Col. Potter in Season 4. Among his movie roles I remember was of a tycoon businessman in the Western comedy movie "Support Your Local Sheriff"

Harry Morgan was one of the most versatile actors in Hollywood, not just in his prime, but in his 'senior' years as well.

He will be greatly missed.

The names have not been changed, to honor the talented............

Bravo, Mr. Mprgan. 7@=e

Morgan. (cursed typos).....

Don't forget his roles in many many westerns (usually as a town official), and the voice of the wizard Carolinus in Flight of Dragons.

Aww.. he sure did leave a legacy behind, not just with M*A*S*H. Still... I will always remember him as Colonel Potter myself as well.

You're the first person besides me who recognized his role in Dragnet.

Harry will be missed, I liked him a lot.

Harry dies Wednesday, my father-in-law the next day. Who'll be the third of the three?

I used to watch, Dragnet.
