Robert Wagner and Stefanie Powers look amazing for their age

Thanks for this, OP. I was just looking at "Hart to Hart" the other day. Love them.

But you should see the pictures hidden in the attics.

Op, that cover is filtered and shopped to death. I am sure they look nothing like that in real life

He's the youngest 89 year old I've ever seen.

I so wanted to be Stefanie Powers as a young gayling. Loved her.

It's obvious they both have had plenty of work.

R5 I wanted to be Natalie Wood.

He was beautiful.

And the best of facelifts are those that incorporate great photo-op lighting and makeup, such as theirs here.

Robert is a well-known Hollywood homosexual. Is Stephanie a professional beard? Was she bearding for William Holden also? Which would make William a fruit as well?

DISCUSS!

Stefanie aged a lot better than Jill St. John, even though Jill was much prettier as a young woman. Jill is 78.

What's Lana Wood up to these days?

Robert Wagner proved his theory that Wood don’t float

Loved Stephanie. Wagner, not so much.

R4- Sylvester Stallone's mother is the youngest 97 year old I've ever seen.

My 11 year old self had a huge crush on Robert Wagner during the first couple of seasons of H2H.

I didn't even recognize him. His face looks good, but his eyes look way too small and they are out of proportion with the rest of his face

Good plastic surgery leaves you recognizable. This plastic surgery is good news/bad news. Good news, you don't have wrinkles, bad news, you don't look like yourself anymore. And more bad news, you don't look better than you used to either

I consider this bad plastic surgery

R17 I did too!

Where's the DLer who lived next door to Powers and had stories about her being a nightmare?

This is actually the 40th anniversary year of "Hart to Hart." It premiered on ABC in August 1979.

Whoa. I wouldn't have recognized her if I hadn't seen the thread title. The incredible shrinking nose!

He looks slightly more recognizable but still weird.

Eternally sexy. So charismatic. Electric chemistry. So good. Relationship goals.

R21- This year will also be the 40th anniversary of The Facts Of Life which premiered August 1979.

Was she in a relationship with Wiiiam Holden? I can't remember.

Is she a homosexualist? My lesbian lady friends tell me she pings to the moon and back.

He killed Natalie Wood

She was covered in bruises. She had been beaten unconscious. There was a blind item some years ago about them. Sinatra allegedly covered his ass. The daughters know, that's why one of them tried to commit suicide. What a pig

Yet, R28, he gets along with his two daughters and his step-daughter from Natalie's in-between marriage. They still show up for him at public engagements and he seems to have a relationship with his grandchildren so what's your damage?

R29=Jill St John

She'll always be April Dancer to me....

I was hot for RW in Hart for Hart too -- he seems sexier in the 80s than in his early 60s stuff, where he is a little bland. He made so many awful films; I think TV was his medium.

Great work and gorgeous veneers. I wish I could afford implants for my whole mouth. She also happens to have a great voice.

RJ was adorable back in the 1950s when he started his career at 20th Century Fox.

Here's his first appearance on WML as the Mystery Guest in 1957.

R30 =

R35 won't load. Let's just say R30 =

He was the first WML Mystery Guest after I was born, and, interestinglyy, later became friends with my sister and once called my Dad to wish him a happy birthday.

I've heard it said that drowning one's beautiful wife helps keep you looking younger longer.

And here's RJ's second WML appearance about a year later.

I find his brash sense of humor hilarious. These WML clips can be so revealing, a shame he so rarely got to show it in his films, but you can see why he was so beloved in Hollywood.

I remember as a kid getting a hard on watching this H2H episode in which Robert Wagner is shaving with just a towel wrapped around his waist (11:18 mark).

[quote]RJ was adorable back in the 1950s

It's hilarious when fan-mag queens on here refer to famous people they did not know personally by the name only their actual friends used.

R10, you should be aware that Stefanie Powers has sipped that magic elixir that comes from between a lady's legs all of her life...

"Robert is a well-known Hollywood homosexual. Is Stephanie a professional beard? Was she bearding for William Holden also? Which would make William a fruit as well?"

Neither Wagner nor Holden were gay. Is that you, Scotty?

[quote] And more bad news, you don't look better than you used to either

No, but you look better than you would. Just take a look a most 90 year olds.

I've been watching Hart to Hart on the Hallmark movie channel recently and it's a damn good show. I didn't know that it was created by Sidney Sheldon.

He went to Natasha Richardson's dentist and got the same glow-in-the-dark teeth.

I just saw Harper with Paul Newman. Wagner had a supporting role. Newman’s character called him “Beauty” and he was, too.

Never watched Hart to Hart but I love Lionel Stander. He was hilarious in the original “A Star is Born.

Hart to Hart ran for 5 seasons, but then there were several Hart TV movies made with the cast after the series ended.

Stephanie Powers was married to that gorgeous hunk Gary Lockwood.

[quote] so what's your damage?

Quoting Heathers, Huh? Yikes. R29, there is little real doubt that he was responsible. You cannot possibly, genuinely think he was innocent?

OP's magazine cover is dated February 2017.

Yes, R51, for about two minutes.

TV’s Bob Wagner sure knew how to fill out a pair of dungarees

H2H meets Moonlighting at 12:20 mark.

R55, "Bob Wagner" was the Mayor of New York for three terms, and I doubt he wore jeans.

R52, I believe they were all most likely drunk and there may have been an argument but no, I don't think he beat the shit out of Natalie, threw her in a dinghy with a down coat so she'd sink faster and then went back to bed to continue having sex with Christopher Walken. Are we good? Great.

Thanks for posting that, R56. That was pretty cool.

IIRC, that was after "Hart to Hart" was over (it went off the air in spring 1984; "Moonlighting" premiered the next spring in 1985).

R57, After Bennett "WML?" Cerf died, former NYC Mayor Robert Wagner married his widow Phyllis.

Robert Wagner was "very close friends" with Robert Osborne......

TV’s Bob Wagner never could open a picture, but he never passed an opportunity to open up a zipper on a pair old chinos

So, I'm a huge fan of the show and couldn't get enough of their on-screen chemistry. Lots of people seem to agree and still like the show a lot. And yet - the show lasted only five years. That doesn't sound like a lot for a show that had and still has such a loyal audience. Why was it cancelled after just five years?

Check out Robert Wagner as a cold blooded killer in "A Kiss Before Dying"(1957).

I think ol' Stef is shaving a few years off her age.

In one of his recent books on old Hollywood, Wagner writes of once walking in on Errol Flynn receiving a blow job from some starlet on her knees.

This is the Beverly Hills home of Robert Wagner and Natalie Wood.

R63, looking back (and going just on memory), I seem to recall that "Hart to Hart," which was usually a top 15 or 20 show during its first four seasons, had its previous lead-in, "Nine to Five" (based on the movie) taken away by ABC and replaced by the late, great Madeline Kahn's sitcom, "Oh, Madeline," which was a critical and ratings disaster. Unfortunately, because "Madeline" was a flop, it was also a ratings drain on "Hart," which saw its numbers plummet as a result. (They were also against NBC's powerhouse Tuesday night lineup, which included "A-Team" and "Remington Steele.") Anyway, "Hart to Hart" could never recover and so ABC pulled the plug on both them and "Madeline."

On a rather strange side note, I also remember a bit of chatter at the time that viewers had a negative reaction to Stefanie Powers' new haircut, preferring the more voluminous hair she had had in the previous seasons, and that that also contributed to the ratings decline. Take that for what you will.

Madeline Kahn always ruins everything.

For what it's worth, this People article from 1984 says the the ratings had fallen sharply against the "copycat" competition Remington Steele.

Orange is such a tricky color to accessorize...

Murder is a youth serum.

When we were working for "Professional Escorts Ltd." in LA the 'madam' told us that RJ was a customer, and a voracious bottom at that!

At 89 Robert is lucky to be vertical instead of horizontal but that facelift makes him look like a televangelist!

Robert Wagner was responsible for Natalie Wood’s death. He knows it.

It looks to me like RJ had some tweaking to his nose, not uncommon when having the entire face lift. BIG mistake.

People think that ' splendour' was like Onassis' s yacht. It's actually a tiny boat. It's impossible not to know where everybody is. And the timeline is wrong. They found her at dawn. Rigor mortis hadn't taken place yet = she had been dead for less than an hour. He didn't put the down jacket on her to sink her. It was an act of remorse . He coudn't bear to put her dead body in the freezing water just in the night gown.

We heard that natalie had been too heavy with Miss Boozette that night and just fell in!

I don't know anything about that. I went to bed early and didn't hear a thing because my cabin was on the other side of the boat. I woke up and it was mayhem. I don't have anything to say. Talk to my attorney.

Aww, isn't that sweet, R79. So a supposed sociopath who supposedly killed his wife in cold blood possessed the supposed ability to empathize with the corpse so he tenderly placed the coat on his dead wife's body before dumping the body in the water. Do you fantasists and conspiracy theorists even hear yourselves? Well, do you?

Hé didn't kill her in cold blood. They were out of their mind boozed and quaaluded up. He went into a drunken rage fit that ended in her being irresponsive in the water, then quaaludes prevented any of them to quickly evaluate the situation and before they knew it, she was dead.

Really, R83? And I suppose the authorities drew blood from Wagner and Walken (sounds like a law firm or a vaudeville act) many hours after the fact to determine what they had ingested the evening before? Please.

Well, it's a known fact that the mafia still controled Hollywood completely at the time. Natalie had always been Sinatra 's plaything since she was a teenager, and they kept the dirty laundry within the family. Neither Wagner nor Walken were ever detained and tested, as should have been the case in regular circumstances. Natalie' s tests showed her alcohol level was still through the roof 12 hours after they had left the restaurant in Catalina. À long with ' prescription drugs'. The captain confessed he had provided them with tons of quaaludes that Wagner had never tried before. It's an established fact that there was a martha/George-like marathon fight that night on board. Furniture was smashed. The only mystery in this case is ' why the husband not in jail ? '

Natalie Wood was very petite, yet she was able to accommodate legendary huge cocks like Frank Sinatra’s and John Ireland's.

Women, however petite, can easily ' accomodate ' twins hunty...

Booze, drugs and water killed Nat. They were all shit-faced. Can't even count on their recollections of that night to assess anything.

He’s a murderer.

The boozy cunt had it coming

So Wagner ingested quaaludes for the first time, became this enraged monster and began beating the shit out of Natalie? More like he was drunk off his ass took the quaaludes (according to the oh, so trustworthy captain) and then proceeded to fall the fuck asleep. She was drunk and pissed off at him and being drunk and pissed off at him she decided to show him! She left the boat tried to board the dinghy and the rest, as they say, is history.

R61. No ..Robert Osborne had a beautiful younger blonde boyfriend. Wagner was only a friend.

"ACS: The Drowning of Natalie Wood"

Would Ryan Murphy have the balls to do it? Chris Pine as Robert Wagner, Rooney Mara as Natalie Wood, and Christina Hendricks as Jill St. John.

Natalie was a great beauty R93. Rooney Mara is not.. Ew.

Any rumblings of putting those store-bought mugs to work in a H2H reboot?

R95, I could have sworn they had a gay version in development some years back but I suppose at this point in time it's DOA.

I loved the chemistry on Hart to Hart, but the writing was typical of Aaron Spelling shows. I’d love to see the concept done with good writing.

Natalie looked like a lush at the end. Even good lighting couldn't hide it.

Yes, she was absolutely HIDEOUS, R98!

Turkey neck

I doubting that he meant to kill her. And he panicked like Ted Kennedy, and instead of calling for help, did nothing. I guess she could have been saved if he acted quicker. Sad fucking story all around.

RJ looked like Leo DiCaprio, at the point when they were both about 19.

RJ and Nat'Lee did Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in 1976, with Lord Laurence Olivier as Big Daddy. Pretty funny, in parts. Wood is an ok Maggie, but aging twink RJ Wagner is miscast as Brick. Olivier shreds the scenery as Big Daddy.

Maureen Stapleton as Big Mama!

It's a shame Natalie's last movie was the awful Exorcist 2.

Natalie’s last movie wasn’t Exorcist 2. She wasn’t in it at all. Her last movie was Brainstorm. It stank, but not as much as Exorcist 2 did.

One of the gay rags in LA mad this comment in their review of Natalie’s Maggie the Cat: “This should permanently dispel those nasty rumors that Natalie Wood can actually act.”

Brainstorm was a turkey. Her career really dried up after the 60s. I thought she was great in Splendor in the Grass, but not much else.

Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice was her last big feature, she didn't do anything for another four years and then some tv in the '70s and the films, The Last Married Couple in America, Meteor and then Brainstorm. Bob and Carol...was released in 1969 when she was 31 years old, that's how old Emma Stone will be this year.

R107, Bob and Carol was a hit film and it made Natalie a nice chunk of change since she opted to take a percentage.

Life after 50, He was 50 in 1979!

They don’t look GREAT, they look barely alive!

Say what you want about the movie, bitches, but it got me the cover of PEOPLE.

^ Alzheimer’s much?

Put down the gin Betty, we're not talking about you, The talk is about Nat Wood, bitch

She has had so much work, I don't recognize her.

This thread isn't about conspiracy theories or Natalie Wood or Betty Bacall. It's about Robert Wagner and Stefanie Powers. Another thread hijacked by the overstimulated true crime readers.

Stefanie looks like Lee Grant now.

Tragically, Lee no longer looks like Lee.

....

Try to get this song out of your head, bitches!

Altoona! You're on the air!

RJ lived with homosexualist Clifton Webb when RJ was young and beautiful.

People love to make up stories. If there was any real evidence Robert Wagner "killed" Natalie Wood it would have long since come to light. Same with Marilyn Monroe. If there had been any hard evidence that she'd been murdered (by JFK, or RFK, or the CIA, or the Mob, or her psychiatrist) it would have been revealed long ago.

Some trivia. Natalie Wood was actually in the running to play the lead in the famous tv mini-series. She was the casting director's first choice for Sybil, but the screenwriter turned Wood down.

Point of Order:

Betty Bacall, much like Mother Jefferson, is at home on ANY thread

Thanks R119 I love ' the affair'. And the song. Now I can' t see youuuu anymaaaaaaaawwwww

R119, Dubbing for Miss Wood provided by Marni Nixon.

Great interview with Powers at The Daily Beast.

Thanks!

ive seen them both in person, trust me, they look their age !!!! they old !!!!

Gee I wonder why they look so fantastic?

Wow. Not a wrinkle on their faces.

He murdered Natalie Wood

Wagner was discovered by talent agent Henry WIllson, who also represented Rock Hudson and Tab Hunter. Willson sold gay gossip on Hunter to bury stories about Hudson, but was later, himself, outed. He was abandoned by clients before dying of cirrhosis and being buried in a then-unmarked grave that now reads "Star Maker".

[quote]The handsome young [Hudson] soon caught the eye of Hollywood Talent agent, Henry Willson. Willson was responsible for the “Beefcake” craze of the 1950’s and 60’s, he was notorious for “scouting talent” at gay bars all over Los Angeles.

[quote]His stable of hot young male actors included Guy Madison,Troy Donahue, Tab Hunter, Chad Everett, Robert Wagner, Rory Calhoun and Doug McClure. Roy was quickly renamed Rock Hudson and he would become Henry Willson’s most successful creation.

SHE WAS TRYING TO SECURE THE DINGHY AND SHE FELL OVERBOARD !!!!

She's... GOH-juss!

What a terrific lady.

Make sure she doesn't go on a boat ride with him to Catalina

HE KILLED MY SISTER.

he would have jus hired dershowiz to get him off......like oj did...

They've had good work done, but it's all in the lighting. He looks closer to 85 here...

He didn't kill her.

Murderer

Facials by Christopher Walken does wonders For one's complexion .
