OVERLOOKED TELEVISION: R.I.P., ERNEST BORGNINE

Certainly one of the most unlikely -- yet most likeable -- film and television stars to grace the screen.

From 1954, here's the second episode of The Lone Wolf television series, starring Louis Hayward, with Ernest Borgnine guest starring as Lt. Joe Saks.

Borgnine's last movie, The Man Who Shook the Hand of Vincente Fernandez, in which he stars, has just been completed.  He was 95.

  1. Too many half-hours of my youth spent watching McHALE'S NAVY...but he clearly was having some fun with it. And then he'd throw some actual red meat at you, when he had the chance.
