HossC Posted August 8, 2022 Report Share Posted August 8, 2022 I've just read the sad news that Roger E. Mosley, best known for playing Theodore "T.C." Calvin in 'Magnum P.I.', has died following a car crash in Los Angeles last week. He was 83. T.C. was Thomas Magnum's helicopter flying buddy from their time in Vietnam. From the article I read, Gerald McRaney was previously considered for the part of T.C. He was also once considered for the part of Luke Duke, but his only appearance in Dukes was as a workman in 'Hazzard Connection'. McRaney finally went on to take lead roles in 'Simon & Simon' and 'Major Dad'. Hobie Hartkins, RogerDuke and Skipper Duke 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 RIP. A few years ago the Today show or ET had a reunion of the Magnum PI cast and Roger was still pretty ripped for his age and besides Tom Selleck looked the best.

He didn't know how to really fly a helicopter but learned to as the show progressed and got his own.

The only guy in Hazzard who was ever named Roger was Roger Blevins and he turned out to be a bad guy. Still, Roger is a pretty cool name.
