[QUOTE="Spooky Owl!, post: 445630, member: 57984"] Susan Saint James died of pancreatic cancer. She co-starred in the THE NAME OF THE GAME series in the '60s, and then played Rock Hudson's wife in [I]The NBC Sundays Mystery Movie[/I]'s McMILLAN & WIFE where the audience adored her (but the producers didn't, killing her character in a plane crash after she asked for a raise -- Saint James later admitted, "I acted like the Queen of Sheba"). She starred with George Hamilton in LOVE AT FIRST BITE (1979) which, unfortunately, had the effect of squelching the box office somewhat of John Badham's DRACULA released only weeks later. And then co-starred with Jane Curtin in the stilted mid-'80s comedy series KATE & ALLIE -- I thought Saint James was too self-conscious to be suited for straight sitcom (and the show had the classic tone-deaf error that Kate looked like an Allie and Allie looked like a Kate --- which is exactly what ruined the Menendez Brothers: Lyle looked like an Erik and Erik looked like a Lyle). Speaking of plane crashes, [SIZE=4]Saint James’ 14‑year‑old son, Teddy Ebersol, died in a private plane crash in Colorado on November 28, 2004, when their aircraft crashed shortly after takeoff, killing Teddy and two crew members, while his father Dick Ebersol and brother Charlie survived with serious injuries. I thought she had a good romantic chemistry with Hudson in McMILLAN & WIFE, supported by the dry sarcasm of Nancy Walker. Susan was 80 years old.
