Gregory Harrison - '80s TV superhunk

He played a stripper in For Ladies Only.

He played gay with Eric Roberts in It's My Party

Did frontal in the Harrod Experiment but all videos of the film have been heavily censored. Who had the power to do this? Johnson?

It's pretty much a G rated movie at this point. I don't think the original exists any longer.

Johnson's 2 inch Johnson was worth the money.

Have the years been kind to his bod and face?

I love him. I would do him in a second.

If I had been as gorgeous as Harrison I'd have had no need for cocaine. I'd be doing nothing but getting off my rocks whenever I wanted to.

He's 67

Oh dear.

DADDY!

Compare with Adrian Zmed who is 4 years younger than Harrison.

But Zmed was abused by Merv the Perv, so I forgive him for letting himself go.

I never heard about the cocaine use. How many celebrities actually grew up on Catalina Island? Gorgeous, sweet guy.

I know he's straight but when starting out was he gay for pay or favors?

Who can forget North Shore where Gregory mentored a young blond twink how to ride the waves.

He would look better with a decent haircut that didn't accentuate his long head

There was a long thread on this subject a couple of months ago.

THREAD CLOSED

Only a real loser screws up their future with cocaine

I can’t speak to the photo at R9, but I saw him about four years ago at an autograph show in Chicago, and he looked great!

Aging sucks. GH aged relatively well, but still. Beauty is fleeting. Remember that.

Well his fleeting beauty lasted a pretty long time.

He never needs to ask an August sky where last July has gone.

His family own Catalina island rich privileged good Republican. Very hot back in thd day.

His family did not own Catalina you idiot!

He was a lot of closeted gay boys’ fantasy...he was mine.

I have never stopped crushing on Greg.

He is still handsome, at 67 to have a dad bod is natural, if he hit the gym he prob could beef up a little

From the made for TV movie, For Ladies Only

Gregory Harrison wanted to do a sitcom and signed a deal with CBS. They gave him a 22 episode order on the condition he appear in the final season of Falcon Crest to boost their ratings. So he did a year or Falcon Crest, followed by his sitcom "The Family Man" which was cancelled after one season.

Pretty close to perfect

Anybody see him in Follies?

I bet he made a very dashing middle aged Ben.

Could he handle the singing and dancing?

We should start a thread about cocaine and Hollywood. It really is super prevalent, isn't it.

I saw him in Follies--married to Blythe!

Was in an elevator with him at William Morris once. He smiled at me when I got on. Quite short and a very large head but I remember thinking he still looked good for his age. No apparent plastic surgery or awful fillers. This was about 8 years ago though.

"Aged relatively well?"

What does objectively well look like then?

R9, I hope you're seriously not bitching about his body? He's almost 70! Looks great for his age.

He was a dreamboat and still is. No need for ugly-ass tats or piercings.

I only wish I looked as good as he does now,and Im 10 years younger. I loved him back in the day,but honestly I sorta forgot about him for a while.

Treat Williams was another hunk whose career faltered because of cocaine.

Ellen Burstyn slept with him back in the '70s according to the tabloids at the time.

Hot AF on the Tralper John opening credits when he comes out of the shower

Treat was also in that awful Follies revival where Blythe kept bumping into the chorus boys.

[quote]He was on Trapper John MD

So was I. But I was molested.

Wasn't he also Billy Flynn in "Chicago" on the Broad Way?

Please R3. I saw the whole thing on a VHS tape long ago. The WHOLE THING.

Ann B. Davis slept with him back in the '70s according to the tabloids at the time.

Still pretty handsome for 67 years old.

He periodically appears as the father (not grandfather) in tv shows - he's the daughter's roommate's father in DL fav The Middle. Lisa Rinna was his wife - which then lead you to Harry Hamlin who is 66.

Both men have aged rather well, I'd say.

He’s gorgeous-then and now. He’s a sweet heart, too. I worked with him on Steel Pier. He can sing and dance really well.

Very handsome man still . Smart to have kicked the bad stuff while he was young or he wouldn’t have aged this well or made it past 50 .

One of my favorite films is Fraternity Row. Hard to be believe that I saw the film 40 years ago when I was in college

Anyone who doesn't see that Greg still looks incredibly attractive and sexy at 67 must be very young.

Hung like a horse

r51, totally agree, the man is a fox.

Hot as fuck

Still hot as fuck.

Interesting his name came up because he was one of the first men I remember who claimed he was the victim of sexual harassment.

At the beginning of his career, actor Gregory Harrison remembered, he was propositioned by a female casting director, and since turning her down 15 years ago, has never been offered a role at the network where she still works. (NBC)

And once beauty has fled, you're worthless. Remember THAT.

Nude:

Oh dear...

Oh please R59, thats a perfectly respectable piece of meat . Not all of us need a traffic cone to feel anything. I bet you thats a fat 6 incher hard,wich is a perfect size.

He also romanced Marcia Wallace and Crystal Gayle according to the papers in the 1970s.

a great kisser

Looks perfect to me. Honestly I hate elephant trunks.

R60 = Gregory Harrison

R60 is Ellen Burstyn and Ann B. Davis who were both completely satisfied by Gregory's 6.5 inches back in the '70s.

Obviously a grower and not a shower.

I'm devastated that he was mutilated.

He was molesred by Danielle BriseBois

No dears,Ive just sucked 100,000 of them. You develop a knack for sizing them up after a while.

"...turning her down 15 years ago..."

R56, he turned her down when he was 52?

R70, the article was written in 1992.

[quote] No dears,Ive just sucked 100,000 of them. You develop a knack for sizing them up after a while.

I hate it when women post figures they can't possibly support rather than "lots of"

Lil' itty bitty teeny peepee.

dl delusion

From first hand experience: he's a grower.

R75 is suffering from a tropical fever.

[quote] Oh please [R59], THATS a perfectly respectable piece of meat . Not all of us need a traffic cone to feel anything. I bet you THATS a fat 6 incher HARD,WICH is a perfect size.

Multiple oh dears. For one, what’s a “hard,wich”?

R73, it was very COLD in that gym!

I found him super sexy as a woman-beating rage-a-holic in Body Chemistry 2.

Anyone else watch that movie just to see him naked?

Battery is kind of a "wilter."

I always got him confused with Eric Close.

His dick is fine. It's the guy next to him who should be worried.

Sadly the swimming pool photo reveals that Gregory suffers from tinymeat(under 7 hard) - or possibly even micromeat (under 6 hard)!

It appears (from IMDb) he's still working quite regularly on TV and in movies. I can't believe I haven't seen him on anything in many years.

[quote] Sadly the swimming pool photo reveals that Gregory suffers from tinymeat(under 7 hard) - or possibly even micromeat (under 6 hard)!

Of course this is Erna talking.

Hot dog down a hallway.

[quote]He also romanced Marcia Wallace and Crystal Gayle according to the papers in the 1970s.

That was David Lee Roth, the hair confused him.

From Fraternity Row.

On the cover of TV Guide 1983.

Thanks for that pic, r61! Where has Eric Close been? I always liked him.

I always thought he was a very bland performer...cute but bland...did nothing for me

Enormously good looking and bland. Perfect for TV mini series.

I remember that show Family Man. He was a widowed firefighter with three kids or something.

He’s one of the most beautiful and sexy men ever to appear on television.

When I was an adolescent, I used to watch him emerge from the shower in the opening credits of Trapper John MD and think he was perfection.

He has an easygoing sexiness, warm smile, beautiful face, and a naturally sexy body.

He always reminded me of Michael Ontkean, also gorgeous and also known for playing a gay character.

And for stripping on the ice.

He did a TV show on the WB with Rue McClanahan. It flopped.

Very pro-gay marriage. He is one of the good guys.

Selling your soul to satanists in return for money and fame does not make one 'a good guy'.

^ Lighten up, Rue. We’ve all had flops.

Well, you more than me, I guess.

Being pro gay marriage is equated to Satanism??

I guess even Satan got it right once in awhile.

Being pro gay marriage is equated to Satanism??

The usury banking criminals who promote this - which is but one part of their agenda - are indeed Satanists.

Who else could justify the murder of 1 million Iraqis?

Great body, great face, but short. Not much of an actor, but can sing and dance well.

The lives of murderous anti-gay bigots are not worth shit compared to the lives of gay people.

Glad he choose his face over being a ripped and sinewy 67 year old.

[quote]I never heard about the cocaine use.

Really? Where ya been??

Is Erna not signing her damn name on this “usury criminal” shit that keeps turning up - even on a superfluous thread about a hunk for four decades ago?

Fuck, do I miss Trolldar.

And while I don’t wish Erna and her pretenders to land on the 2018 Death Pool, I do wish they’d get the psychiatric help that they are crying out for.

R102 Greg is 5'11" tall, how is that short?

Is that a colored man in the pool? Oh my and naked too !!!

His family did own a great deal of property and the hotel on Catalina.

Something about him reminds me of Darren Criss. Or vice versa, I guess.

Is that Al Franken in the pool? Better watch your back, Greg-o!

Are you sure that's not Micky Dolenz?

That's the guy from Mod Squad.

Why would they have those two micro-meats doing full frontal - who wants to see that?!?!?!

Ok, so I was a child who originated in the 80's - therefore, I had zero knowledge of Gregory until he appeared in the tv show Sisters in the mid 90's. He was one of my first crushes as a pre-teen. I found him to be breathtakingly hot and remember jacking to him many times. With a little research (it was harder back in those days), I was able to track down some of his cheesy, bad tv movies from decades prior - For Ladies Only being the best vehicle to fantasize about all of the nasty things that I wanted to do to his gorgeous body. So yeah - I have been a life-long fan. Being a relatively bad actor, he nonetheless has an amazingly lengthy body of work (mostly in tv of course). He certainly has done well for himself and has been an actively employed actor for consecutive decades now. Good for him. And yes, I would still fuck his ass any day, any time. Sex on a stick!

R93 is correct. The Trapper John opening credits were wonderful

[quote]Where has Eric Close been?

R89, he played Rayna James' husband Teddy on Nashville for a few seasons.

We cruised the shit out of each other in a bookstore in a hotel lobby sometime in the 1980s. I've always wished I'd had the nerve to actually talk to him that day.

He played an important role in my favorite television event of the 1980’s, “Fresno.”

[quote]I always got him confused with Eric Close.

How on God’s green Earth?

Patti Davis (Ronald & Nancy Reagan's daughter) was in "For Ladies Only". It was then I knew that girl should get out of the acting game altogether. I've seen better performances in high school one act plays.

Even posing nude didn't help her career.

Theatre Queens: Didn't Greg play the Ryan O'Neal role in some stage musical version of Paper Moon? Where/when was that?

....

Two micro meats?

Do you ever do anything but watch porn?

[quote] He played an important role in my favorite television event of the 1980’s, “Fresno.”

That was an MTM Production, so it's now owned by Fox which is now part of Disney so who knows if that'll ever get a DVD.

Fresno was Coral Burnett's thing

I used to jack off to him as a young gayling.

I laughed when I saw this thread -- my partner regularly mentions Harrison in the shower in the opening credits of Trapper John MD.

Maybe three or four years ago, he was doing stuff with Hallmark.

I was at a Hallmark dinner party with tons of people, a lot of celebs one year and he was at my table.

I remember him being a gentleman, engaging with people and being interested and interesting.

I said to his grown daughter who was there 'your dad is really cool.' She said 'yeah, what you're seeing is who he is.'

Randi Oakes is a lucky bitch. I never liked her on C.H.I.P.S., but she must be a decent woman....theyve been married for 37 years .

This image was a part of the sexual awakening of millions of gay men in the late 70s.

Skip to 10:37.

Out of curiosity I looked up Randi Oakes.....she looks good for her age too....and they make an attractive couple...

R134 Agreed. They both married well. Also their marriage is a long term success, a rarity in Hollywood . Good for them.

I read he got his family out of LA/Hollywood b/c he wanted them to live in a small town where you know the people you live with.

He's got 110 credits, including several on-going series

looks like he has had a nice long career

Nobody on DL has anything terrible to say about this man?

Jesus, he has us all disarmed.

Indeed, R132.

[quote]Nobody on DL has anything terrible to say about this man?

This asshole never sucked my dick!

What made his shower scene so hot, besides the obvious, was that Harrison/Gonzo was so casual in showing off the goods.

I was talking to a friend recently about locker room/showers in the 70s and 80s. For gay guys, we were always "on alert", recognizing that we were always seconds away from seeing the holy grail, some jock in all his glory. For straight guys - back then, at least - so many of them probably never thought twice about getting undressed, walking around naked, and just taking care of business. A moment in time that will probably never be recaptured.

They moved the family to Oregon in the early '90s, apparently. Not living in Hollywood does wonders for a marriage. I assume she stayed home while he kept working away from home. Does a guy like this really stay faithful with all the options around him?

Maybe, not all men are 🐖s.

I thought his secret marriage to pass-around-Randi killed his career.

He's really a Rethug???

He played Angela Rizzoli's boyfriend on the final season of Rizzoli and Isles.

Not a Republican.

r133 Fuck you. I wasn't in that season.

R133 That was really a great show. I wonder why it’s not in syndication.

Good question. I don't think I've ever seen it in syndication or reruns...

I only discovered the show in reruns in the late 80s or early 90s so it did have a life in syndication even if it was brief. I think it was Lifetime or USA. Maybe WGN. You'd think MeTV or Antenna or one of those channels might pick it up.

Weird how some once popular shows just seem to disappear. Eight is Enough is another one that never had much life in reruns.

He thought he was Shelley Long and left the show and couldn't do anything else but take of his shirt.

Is the cocaine addiction on the record or is it just insider gossip/well known sources etc?

It’s on the record...

R152

^Did u not see R153?

Thank you r152!

And he still looks damn good!
