Incredible to have lost three men identified with such notable TV roles during the same era so rapidly. In addition to "McCloud" of course, he had already been famous as Chester on "Gunsmoke" and his memorable film roles in "Touch Of Evil" and Steven Spielberg's first classic "Duel."

RIP, McCloud. Prior to his work on BSG, Terry Carter also co-starred with Dennis on "McCloud" as I recall.

This is sad. McCloud was one of my favourite TV shows of the era, and Weaver always struck me as a gentleman. He will be missed.
