12 O'clock High 01.12 "Soldiers Sometimes Kill"

[Xplorinuk]

Robert Lansing and Quin Martin (Producer) did not get along well. QM "wanted the lead character to be younger" and brought in Paul Burke, who was 2 years older than Lansing. Lansing, in my opinion, was the better actor.

@Xplorinuk lansing wanted more money for the secound season but martin didnt want to pay so he scrapped lansing and made up the younger actor story as a cover up that was lansings side of the story the first episode of the secound season has lansing getting killed by krauts dressed as americans in an american plane without showing lansings face their were 2 board games issued for 12 o clock high one with lansing one with burke on the cover only one for combat 2 for cheyeanne

@spacepatrolman 2 for cheyanne one with clint walker one with ty hardin clint went on strike

MyBruno My recollection is that Lansing voluntarily left at the end of the first season in order pursue a movie career which never materialized and He ended His days traveling the tv guest shot circuit.

For 1964 this is a very clever episode. It is very well done, a great story and not predictable at all...

I can watch this one over and over. Well acted, well directed!
