Probably my most feared and at the same time revered TV series of all time. I couldn't have enough of these shows. Thanks David for making a big difference in a kid's entertainment life.

Thanks for sharing this video, The Invaders is a cult series for me and Roy Thinnes is a kind of legend because of that.

If he knew how many fans (female fans) he had when The Long, Hot Sumer was on in Eastern Europe. We still had Ben Quick T-shirts, that was not so common in that era ever here! After all, he seems a very kind person, wishing him the best! :)

Thank you for a great show.

What about that wierd disc they would stick on someone's neck if I remembered correctly as a kid.

Terrific to see how Roy was so well treated by a number of fans. Amazing what can happen when you decide to take a little risk; what he originally feared became one of the best experiences he has ever had. A mini tribute to him and his fine work. :-)

Happy to see you, Mr. Roy Thinnes. Can never stop enjoying your performance in the tv mini-series, The Long Hot Summer (1965). You and Clara Varner (Nancy Malone) never fail to thrill me! What a GREAT actor......so quick, unpredictable, refreshing........unforgettabl­e..........Thanks!

Well done Roy, I don't think I could have not fained some disorder or faked a heart attack especially for 6 hours. is it out on dvd yet in the UK

Awesome show that scared the hell out of me when I was a kid (my other favorite of the era was Dark Shadows). What one needs to understand is at the time this was made there were massive UFO flaps in the United States and people were actually fearful and so this I think added an element to the fear of the show in "could this really be happening?" That era is one I wish I could go back to and relive, a time before the internet. We only got 2 TV channels and a half hour of news at six.
