Not a single grave joke?!
Just watched Stalag 17 last week. A classic role for which Graves has apparently been forgotten.
Always liked him.

He and his brother James Arness both had successful careers. I guess Peter's career was a little more varied, and James' career ran on a much longer show with a character that defined him.
Peter took his stepdad's last name so he would be thought of differently than James.

Thanks Mr. Graves for all the memorable moments. I liked the 1988 Mission Impossible TV Series.

Today was Peter Graves' birthday, too.
