Actor Pernell Roberts, who played the oldest Cartwright son on Bonanza before stupidly leaving the show to pursue sitting in his apartment full time, died today at 81.
Roberts, who spent the entirety of the 70s repeatedly kicking himself in the ass for hopping off the gravy train just as it was leaving the station, redeemed himself at least some tiny bit by landing the part of Trapper John McIntire on the quasi-M*A*S*H-spinoff, Trapper John, M.D.
Rumors that Roberts was killed when the ghost of Dan "Hoss" Blocker sat on him are proving hard to verify, as I just made them up.
No DW2K9 players had Trapper.
