As much as I hate to admit this, I guess we're not getting any younger; I'm only 42, but I feel sometimes like I'm lost in the wrong time period. I grew up as a child of the 70's and 80's, and even caught a lot of 50's and 60's in syndication. My favorite show literally ended 45 years ago after a 9 year run.

Future Cop: this short-lived 1977 ABC police series (which had a 1978 NBC follow-up film called Cops and Robin) has John Amos and Michael Shannon still here, while Ernest Borgnine passed on in July 2012 at 95.

Just an anecdote...I saw Al Harrington in concert at Honolulu...he was a very fine singer and presented a very heartfelt and interesting series of recollections about his life, HAWAII 5-0 and his co-stars in between songs...also saw Jim Nabors show on that same trip...a special occasion as it was his last of the run at that particular hotel...Tom Selleck, John Hillerman and Larry Manetti were all in attendance and introduced to the audience...I saw quite a few Hawaii based celebrities on that one trip...also Harold Sakata (OddJob from GoldFinger)!
