While his greatest fame came from his teaming with Bill Cosby in I
Spy, those of us around in the 80s remember Robert Culp
(August 16, 1930 - March 24, 2010) as over-the-top FBI agent Bill
Maxwell in The Greatest American Hero. A Reagan conservative who
snacked on dog biscuits, wore a "Happiness Is A Warm Pistol" t-shirt,
and was dedicated to serving the "guvmint," Maxwell was a hoot and Culp
a joy to watch as he chewed the scenery and managed to hold his own
against a liberal, whale-loving high school teacher with "magic jammies."
Thanks for all the good times, Bob. It made those Reagan years a bit
more tolerable.
