Gregory Harrison Turns 70

gurl had it

The only reason I tuned into Trapper John MD when I was a teen was for the opening credits. Gonzo opening the shower door was all I needed.

All you needed for what, R2?

Wow!!! No way! 70! He was so hot!

As a child of the late 80s and 90s, I have distinct memories of, well, getting off to this beautiful man, but when I look back at his IMDB page, I don't know what I actually saw him in. Trapper John and Falcon Crest weren't it. It must have been some of his films playing on TV or maybe just seeing him on entertainment news shows or in magazines? It's crazy that he's my dad's age, but he still looks good for his age!

At :27.

R7 I came to post the same!

Does he know how many gaylings shot a load across the room every time that shower door opened? LOL

Yes! Seeing Gregory Harrison open that door, knowing a another fictional character was going to see him full-frontal, was all I needed to rub one off.

If only I had known about "The Harrad Experiment" when I was a teenager. Don Johnson was full-frontal, too.

Wasn’t Harrison and some stripper movie?

She was really feeling herself here.

R11 For Ladies Only! The OP's pic is from the movie. Reagan's daughter was the female lead.

Happy Birthday Gregory! Yum!

Not the best video quality, but I looked.

He's certainly aged far better than Treat Williams.

He's a Catalina Island kid. Born and raised in Avalon.

If he dyed his hair brown he could easily pass for late 40s.

GREG IN HOLLYWOOD had a good article and pictures today as well of Harrison.

Did former co-star Lorna Luft wish him a happy birthday?

The stepping-out-of-the-shower scene in the first episode is at 10:35:

R20 I still remember that line - "Thanks. The rest of me's kinda cute, too."

Yes. Yes, it is.

Was his problem alcohol or cocaine?

I was really hoping he would go full-frontal in the stripping movie. It was probably too early to push that button. I was disappointed in Magic Mike. They had the license to go full-frontal. The audience would have loved it. It may have done even better at the box office. Thank goodness more actors are willing to show it all nowadays.

He Was Beautiful.

Treat Williams was the one with a coke problem which is probably why he didn't age as well.

I saw him in "Chicago" about 12 years ago. Still a fox but short.

Treat. Yum. Another “treat”.

70??? Holy fuck

We watched Hair in my high school drama class. When Treat dropped his pants the class started laughing and the teacher told us to settle down because when you see one you've seen 'em all.

Was it Harrison or Richard Hatch who became rent boy/man after the career tapered off?

Oh good God, neither one did. But of course you knew that.

It was Walter Brennan, r33.

No, no, no, you're both wrong. It was Broderick Crawford. He could usually be found turning tricks along Santa Monica Blvd. wearing tiny cut off jeans. They said he had absolutely no gag reflex. Unfortunately the same couldn't be said about his tricks once they saw him naked.

The stud muffin apparently doesn’t yet have a muffin top. However, the rest of him could pass for Santa Claus.

Is Brian Mitchell on Trapper John our Brian Stokes Mitchell, Rose?

R39 Yep. Same guy.

I don't think Treat Williams aged badly. This is him last year. He still has a full head of hair and is 68 years old after all.

Okay I have to amend my statement I made out loud one day. "I would never fuck a 70 year old, unless he looked like Gregory Harrison!"

Is he the gay? Because I soooo would.

Between Harrison and Lee Majors, my poor little teenage dick never got a break.

He's been married to Randi Oakes ("CHiPs") for almost 40 years.

[quote] I don't think Treat Williams aged badly

Well, in general, no. But compared to the aged beauty of Gregory Harrison he's an ogre.

Gregory has even aged better than his wife.

R46 Whoa! That's not the CHiPs Randi I remember!

R2, you're not the only one.

Maybe I missed it above in someone else's post, but Gregory Harrison was in a gay-themed movie called IT'S MY PARTY. I think Eric Roberts and Lee Grant also starred. It's semi-inspired by a true life event.

[quote]I was really hoping he would go full-frontal in the stripping movie.

In a 1981 network made-for-television movie?

Razorback 1984

Wasn't there a suicide attempt years ago?

I love that clip at r15.

First of all, the strippers are incredibly queeny, and dance like they're in an aerobics competition. Harrison is the only one who dances at all like I've seen male strippers dance in the last 20 years.

Second, there is room for about 20 people in that audience seating, and yet the show has expensive elaborate stage machinery.

The curvaceous blonde nurse on "Trapper John M.D." played by Christoper Norris (a woman) was named "Ripples" Brancusi. Can you imagine that happening today?

The imaginary doctors and nurses on "Trapper John M.D." played by Pernell Roberts and and Gregory Harrison run around like pandemic diseases don't exist. Can you imagine that happening today?

Greg was sex on a stick.

He and Michael Ontkean could've played brothers, right? Or, better yet, boyfriend twins.

[quote]The curvaceous blonde nurse on "Trapper John M.D." played by Christoper Norris (a woman) was named "Ripples" Brancusi. Can you imagine that happening today?

As I recall, even back then, the "Ripples" was dropped during the first season and she was thereafter called by her character's given name, Gloria.

I am so upset the free streaming link for FOR LADIES ONLY has disappeared from the interwebs.

I wanted to watch it!

They might as well have named her "Hooters" Brancusi or "Knockers" Brancusi. Even back in 1981, naming her "Ripples" was considered extremely sexist and out of touch.

I remember Reagan's daughter Patti Davis talking about how appearing in that stripper movie was a great embarrassment for her.

Imagine how embarrassing it would be to say I was in a movie with Patti Davis?

Gregory Harrison could sing and dance as well as be hunky and handsome. I wish he had had more of a career. He wasn't much of an actor, though, but he should have done better on the Broadway stage.

R51, That was Jack Scalia.

Gregory Harrison has popped up in supporting roles in a couple of Hallmark Christmas movies in recent years.

Jacked off so many times to the stopper movie. Was wonderful.

I'd like his surgeon's number, that's for sure.

He looks quite a bit like Matt Bomer, and should play his father.

Harrison in his constantly shirtless role as "Torch" on "Fresno"

R68 "Fresno" was a hilarious send-up of all those 1980s nighttime soaps.

Harrison was the sexy hunk drifter. And yes, he was shirtless in about 98% of the show. I loved it!

From an older GH thread:

[quote]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.

[quote]—gay male

[quote]From an older GH thread:

At first I thought you meant General Hospital.

He and his wife did Love Letters as a benefit for my junior high school.

Was madly in love with him back in my pre-teen days (when he was on Trapper John). He's still a gorgeous man.

My father was friends with him for a few years when my younger brothers were in school with Harrison's kids. They lived in Oregon at the time.

He's an old

R75 , are you illiterate or Russian?
