George Maharis has a secret

Watching this fall 1965 episode of I've Got a Secret, I was surprised there were then 4.5 million color TV sets in the US. And 45 members of a 458-sized (& very white) TV audience owned a color TV set.

He was so hot

Tab Hunter was also on that show. I wonder if the queens in the audience laughed every time some closeted celeb announced that he "had a secret"

I had him. Yes, I'm that old.

[Quote] I had him. Yes, I'm that old.

Insatiable bottom?

Details, please!

R4. I tip my chapeau to you, Sir.

Handsome Greek.

Damn, he's 92.

The Colton Haynes of the 1960s?

He was a bigger star than Colton Haynes will ever be.

Didn't he get busted blowing a guy in a gas station loo?

He had some good fantasy island and love boat episodes.

r11, he definitely got busted in a bathroom, although I'm not sure if he was giving or getting the bj

Ahem

Whatever happened to Perfecto Telles?

I found nothing on Google.

R15 There's a death notice at myheritage.com for a "Perfecto Telles, Jr." with the birth-death years of "1941 - 1988."

Since the 1974 news article about the arrest states that Telles was 33-years old when that happened, then that 1941 birth year on the death notice would fit.

Maybe that could explain not finding (much of) anything.

A 47 year old gay men dying in the 1980s? What could possibly have been the cause of death?

I was hoping to see a picture of Perfecto Telles.

'Perfecto' is such an extraordinary name to bear. I wonder if he lived up to it and if his perfect beauty and lovemaking made George oblivious to the sound of angry policemen entering the restroom.

Wasn't he busted twice for his men's room misbehavior?

R19 The article within the link at R14 mentions Maharis' 1967 arrest for "lewd conduct" after he allegedly made a pass at a vice-squad officer in the men's room of a Hollywood restaurant, with Maharis pleading guilty to "disorderly conduct" and getting a $50 fine.

R17, And in San Francisco.

I'm R4. When I had George Maharis, he was an aggressive top. And hung. And handsome.

He could teach young celeb homos a thing or two about being a celeb homo.

HAF.

Did a Playgirl shoot back in the day, revealing a hot bod

Yes

Oof. That ass looked dropped.

He's live, bitches!

The guy that replaced him on Route 66 (Glenn Corbett) did a lot of revealing photos for Physique Pictorial magazine, the original gay porn of the 50s and 60s.

R30 Glenn would have done well at Sean Cody.

What's the connection...

... between these two?

R33 The Crimson Kimono.

[quote] two cops ... partners and bachelors who share an apartment, are assigned to the case.

"Partners and bachelors who share an apartment" sounds like the way a discreet gay couple would have described themselves way back when

Anthony Perkins has a secret, too.
