just kind of nticing once that it was gone).

He also wasn't a member of the original cast. I think he might have
been doing something for the first few years of MI, but I can't quite
put my finger on what it was...

Quite true, but since we're on the subject,

Peter Graves (2-7) - alive
Leonard Nimoy (4/5) - alive
(Lee Meriweather should have been a member of the cast in #4 :) - alive
Leslie Ann Warren (5) - alive
Sam Elliott (5) - alive
Lynda Day George (6/7) - alive
Barbara Anderson (temp fill-in for 7) - alive

Graves still looked good in M:I '88, and for that matter, so did Greg Morris
and Lynda Day George in their guest roles.

she was also the car hop in Guess Whos Coming to Dinner.

Yes, but Graves was not a member of the original cast; the original
leader of the IMF was Steven Hill, probably best known for his role of
D.A. Adam Schiff on the original "Law and Order" series. Hill left M:I
after one season because he declined to work on Sundays for religious reasons.

I think he finally left Law and Order for the same reason.

Even though I am not religious myself, I have nothing but respect for
people who put the private practice of their faith over their jobs be
it Steven Hill or Sandy Koufax.

On the other hand, I have nothing but contempt who try to force their
religion on everyone around them the way Tom Cruise does.

Saturdays.
He must have been Jewish. <g>
IIRC, I believe Seventh Day Adventists also celebrate Saturday as
their religious holiday instead of Sunday.
That's a hell of a list!
Where did you get it?
You left out Mary Tyler Moore (paternal grandfather) when you
mentioned The Dick Van Dyke Show, although you included her in her own tv
series.
Some of the names are stunning to hear: Lorne Greene, for example.
If you want to be strictly religious on the matter, those who have
only Jewish fathers (or grandfathers) aren't Jewish. It's the *mother's*
religion that is the strict, determinant factor as you listed Jaclyn Smith.
BTW, her real first name is spelled Jacquelyn. Another one is Michael
Landon, also only with a Jewish father.
I knew Jason Alexander's last name is really Greenspan.

I believe her real FIRST name is Ellen

He must have been Jewish. <g>
* 20/20 — Barbara Walters, John Stossel, Connie Chung (Chung converted)
<snip middle of *very* long list>
* Zoey 101 — Sean Flynn-Amir
And of course the entire cast of Popeye....

Wouldn't it have been easier to list the stars who *aren't* Jewish?...I'm
reminded of something Mel Brooks's character said in "To Be Or Not To Be" when
he was told that Hitler wanted to eliminate certain groups from the theater:

"If it wasn't for Jews, fags, and gypsies, there would *be* no theater."

Once they invent the internet, you will be able to find a lot of this stuff
out by yourself. Hang in there.

No. President Bush, Tony Blair, John Howard and their advisors are all
still alive. It's just the soldiers and civilians who are dead.
