Default Robert Conrad

I picked up a copy of the Enquirer and was shocked to read that he was in an auto accident. I mention this because he was considered for the role of Commander Cain. Conrad was left with paralysis in his right arm.

Man, I'm sorry to hear that!

That is really a shame. But, he'd still make a great Cain, even if he had an arm in a sling, Robert Conrad is still an awesome actor.

Hope that paralysis is a temp thing. He's a good actor.

Agreed. He would be a very good successor to the role of Commander Cain. He's definitely in the same "in charge/leadership" mold as Lloyd Bridges.

Even wih his arm hurt, it could still work. Cain was injured, when the BaeShips were destroyed??

My thinking exactly. In fact, it might just work even better for it.

Robert would be my first choise as well, bad arm and age would fit nicely.
