Sad day, another great actor gone to the Great Gig In the Sky.

[dayglored]

Mosley was born in Los Angeles and made his debut in 1971 episodes of Longstreet and Cannon. In 1973, he worked with Selleck for the first time in Stephanie Rothman's Terminal Island. He had several minor roles in movies and television in the early 1970s, even working with John Wayne in McQ. In 1976, he scored his most prominent film role, playing legendary folk singer Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter in Gordon Parks' Leadbelly biopic.

Throughout the rest of the 1970s, Mosley continued appearing in hit movies and shows. He appeared in The Rockford Files, Starsky and Hutch, and Roots: The Next Generation. He played boxer Sonny Liston in The Greatest, in which Muhammad Ali played himself. Mosley also starred in Burt Reynolds' football comedy Semi-Tough.

Clu Gulager died today as well.

I really liked him — liked his character, too.

[M Kehoe]

Ch-a

How do you pronounce that and what does it mean, if anything.

RIP, good man.

Unusually, for then and now, the character Mosley played in Magnum, helicoper pilot T.C., was Black but was not a Black character. He was simply Magnum’s friend and ally.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Thought that was Carl Weathers

[mairdie]

What a shame! I loved him.

[Skywise]

Dang - I really liked his characters.

[Tax-chick]

Oh, too bad, but 83 is a good run. He was so likeable!

RIP.

Quite sad. I enjoyed him as T.J.

I’m watching Magnum P.I. on Charge as I’m typing this reply. Tom Selleck has two great series...but his co-stars are great, too.

Sad. BTW, I clicked magnumpi and all I saw were articles against the new magnum pi. I ain’t watched it.
