Not an obsession, like I could sometimes get, but a more subdued admiration/attraction. If you look closely at the Battlestar game clothing (under the pads) the tops are like bras that expose everything! It's just nuts...! I'm grateful for them, though. LOL I understand what you're saying about Steven on "Dynasty." I would NEVER be able to have resisted Grant Goodeve! I think the writers just messed with the role too much. He was gay, then he was bi, then he was gay, then AIDS came about, so he was straight, then finally gay. It was unreal!! At least (according to the reunion movie) he was finally settled with Bart Fallmont, though no longer played by dead-hot Kevin Conroy, but someone else entirely....<br /><br />Thanks, Rick! I'm glad you liked this and enjoyed peering over Richard Hatch's career (and other attributes!)<br /><br />Gingerguy, because I really never saw anything much of his after "Dynasty" and the occasional guest part, he was always young in my mind, too! It seemed like he disappeared, but he actually worked quite a bit. What's hilarious about Pamela Bellwood is that this was a GOOD hair period for her on the show. Before, it ran hot and cold, and after, it got more and more highlighted to the point of creamy blondeness, which was not a good look on her. She had a baby and hey tried to disguise it and eventually she became obsolete, much to her dismay. I was agog at the backless, draped dress in the one snap that she wore TO WORK at La Mirage!! Ah, the '80s!Poseidon3https://www.blogger.com/profile/10465785002285422594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-76454196570589482252017-02-10T09:30:44.391-05:002017-02-10T09:30:44.391-05:00He was just gorgeous. I saw the obit the other day...He was just gorgeous. I saw the obit the other day and was sad and shocked that he was 71, I think of him as eternally 28. I remember watching "Dead Man's Curve" so clearly, and never missed an episode of "Battlestar" (though except for Dirk and Richard, and Miss Seymour's costumes,I found it boring).<br />I recently tried to watch Charlie Chan and all I remember is Michelle Pfeiffer, that is so funny. I sort of remember him on Dynasty, they had tons of lookers on that show. I had to click on the picture of Pamela Bellwood to see if her hair was as dry as I remember-yupp it was. That is a sad loss for an actor who was a big part of my childhood tv watching. Thanks for a nice tribute Poseidon.Gingerguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17989371210392669145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-22823520651700725072017-02-09T15:38:17.520-05:002017-02-09T15:38:17.520-05:00One of the most naturally handsome men of his time...One of the most naturally handsome men of his time!

I've always loved him in my own quiet little way. With those looks his leading man status should have been prevalent everywhere. I don't think I really became aware of him until Battle of the Network Stars, but not the one that used to be featured annually on ABC. I seem to remember Battle of the Network Stars becoming syndicated and airing early on Saturday mornings and I would set my alarm like it was a school day so I could crotchwatch for ninety minutes and the guys never seemed to shy away from their mandatory micro speedos. As for his stunning attire on that Battlestar Galactica episode, Vera Di Milo never looked that good. Boy, how great would it have been on Dynasty if Hatch had been wooing both Steven and Claudia? Then again, Steven would not have appreciated him. Look how callously he threw away that incredibly gorgeous Grant Goodeve. That Steven, he has to be the most homophobic gay man I've ever seen on television. Thanks for the loving tribute.petercox97https://www.blogger.com/profile/05818754297522029991noreply@blogger.com
