The first Season comes out June 7th...I was thinking about getting it for my son for his birthday.
I think Bigfoot said before he liked it, I don't know anything about it. My mom couldn't remember it either, she thought it might not have been any good.
Does anyone know about it?? What did you think???

He was awesome in "The Blob", but many say this show made him a star.

Tune your sets to Turner Classic Movies on Wednesday June 1st at 8pm. They have an awesome tribute show for Steve McQueen: The Essence Of Cool!
Steve McQueen Posted by Ali_with_an_i (Member # 27) on :
He is one of my favorite actors, even though he really wasn't that good as an actor. His coolness made him a star!

I loved Wanted Dead Or Alive. I would watch reruns of it every sunday morning with my dad when I was a kid. McQueen was soooo cool in this show. He was a bounty hunter and he carried this sawed-off rifle that had both the barrel and stock sawed off to where it looked more like a long-barrel pistol with a lever action. He wore it on his leg in a special holster and he was very quick with it. The rifle is called a Mares Laig. I'm definately going to but the DVD set when it comes out. Steve McQueen is just too cool to pass this set up.

Wow! I am going to try and remember to watch the Steve McQueen special. Gosh, I need a calender by my computer to start writing stuff down. It is kind of cool that there has actually been a few things I have wanted to see on TV lately.
Bigfoot...if you loved it, then I know we will too, so I think it will be something I run out and go get.
We have so many of his movies.
The one I can never find though and really want is:
Papillion
My son has never seen it, and I can't remember it, except that it was really sad. Was Dustin Hoffman in it too??

I am watching it right now. I just saw Eli Wallach...which character was he in the Magnificent Seven???- that is one of my son's favorite movies.

I watched it. His son, Chad...is real cute, he seemed to get choked up a few times about his Dad.
It is sad that he was only 50 when he died, but they said he lived a 100 years in 50, which I think he lived even more than that...because he accomplished so much in such a short period of time.
The Hunter and The Towering Inferno are my 2 favorite movies.
My son's room has a shelf going the whole way around the whole room, and it has Steve McQueen movies all around it, and models of different cars. So, I am constantly looking at Steve McQueen when I am on the computer, cause the computer is in his room.
I never actually thought Steve was very good looking, but he was a babe magnet..I think it was cause he was full of all kinds life and energy and the whole bad boy thing too.
