Separated At Birth
35. Movies/TV (Gig Young/Richard Long)
Likable and dependable actor Gig Young (Desk Set, Kid Galahad, They Shoot Horses Don't They) and our familiar TV friend Richard Long (Big Valley, Nanny and the Professor...but also movies like House on Haunted Hill). Gig died such a gruesome and mysterious death (murder-suicide) in his sixties that watching him in the light-hearted comedies is bittersweet at times. And it was always a real bummer like we got cheated that Richard Long left us relatively early in his forties from a bad heart. Well anyway, it took me years to realize they weren't the same guy.
