Not Along Route 66 - The Life and Sad Ending® of Glenn Corbett 

I’m 65. There are a lot of great people that have checked out before me. Everyday is a gift.

Wow... I had no idea he had such a Great resume and played in so many movies... His starring role in.. Star Trek.. Will always be Mr Dilly's.. Favorite!!!! RIP Sir 🙏❤️Thank You.. Steve. 👍

He was very handsome. Good actor too. Too many died of cancer.

I didn't know he'd been in so many things 😮 Thanks for that amazing profile, Steve. May he RIP 🙏 🪦 😢

Thanks for your videos. It is tragic how many stars die young as a result of smoking and drinking. Audiences tend to glamorize actors. Some actors smoke to keep their weight down. Drinking too seems to be an occupational hazard. We see them on the screen and they never seem to age. In reality, some of them are frail and just as mortal as the rest of us. I suppose I’ve just summarized the theme of your channel. Thanks for sharing these memories.

I'm 58, so this does give me a little pause. His appearance on Star Trek is a favorite. There are a couple celebs that come to mind that people can confuse. Look at Will Ferrell and Chad Smith. Those guys could be brothers.

I love your yesteryears. I am a big fan of yours.

Handsome gentleman….enjoyed his work.

What beautiful blue eyes. Loved Glenn in everything.

thanks for his story. What a life he had. OH HOMICIDAL IS A GREAT FILM

Wow, only 59? So sad

I don't want to give my last name away, but I'm obviously just about to. That name on that garage behind you is my last name. It may be corny, but I think it's cool when I see my family name on a tv show or video, or wherever. Lol. Thanks for another great video. I was unfamiliar with Corbett. Even when I don't know a celebrity you feature in your videos, I still enjoy hearing about their lives. Count me on the list of those who get the Bills, Paxton and Pullman, mixed up.

I remember Glenn when in the mid 80’s I had started to watch the reruns of Route 66. He was the perfect replacement for George Maharis . I liked the episode that gave him his entrance being a Green Beret returning home from Vietnam. He was classified as war hero and this was 1963, but America didn’t engage North Vietnam in war until November of 1965. Even in 1963 on Route 66 Vietnam was a topic mentioned in 1963. It was great that he became Martin Milner’s partner in Route 66 and did their share of traveling in that Corvette. He was also a very good looking guy and Route 66 was one of my favorite TV 📺 shows. Get your kicks on Route 66 was the slogan for the show.

Thank you Steve. For celebrating the lives and careers of so many celebrities. And letting us who basked in their starlight to know how they passed into eternity. Your work is appreciated! 👍

It's Tremedous that you are exposing these actors and actresses who are so worthy of the notariety but often overlooked in favour of the main characters who in many cases become the Big Stars! Thanks and Cheers from Canada!

Many great roles in television & Movies. 🍿. Chisum comes into my thoughts, those steely blue eyes Made him a fav of the ladies.

Great Job Steve Thank you.

Hi Steve! Don't remember Glenn in the movies, but do remember him on Route 66 show. Thanks for the information on Glenn Corbett.

Thanks for another great profile! I remember him and it’s nice to know he had so much work as an actor in a tough industry.

Glenn Corbett was one of the great ones.

Star trek and Dallas, I never forget a handsome face. Thanks for the upload you guys and love from all of us on Staten Island, New York.

Thanks Steve. Have you ever made a video about Gladys Georgianna Greene (Jean Arthur)? She was always one of my favorites. Another person I'd love to know a little more about is Peter Gunn's girlfriend Edie (Loa Albright), or his friend Lt. Jacoby (Herschel Bernardi) I know Herschel was the voice of Charlie the tuna, and I think the Jolly Green giant.

Of all the roles he played I would likely have remembered him as Jason Aldrich on The Doctors, because my mom watched that soap opera every weekday!

Always remember him from Star Trek and those John Wayne westerns. Knew he'd passed on, but didn't realize he died so soon.

I met and visited with him once at a shoot around 1975. He was the nicest, most down to earth person you could imagine.

Nice work, love the memories, I look forward for more 👏🏻👏🏻 & yes I think we all get a little confused With actors , actresses The nice thing is people like you remind us of our youth.

All those roles and I remember him by far the best for his one appearance on Star Trek. Now that you called out the movies with John Wayne I do recall him but for some reason never associated him as the same actor from Star Trek. Again thanks for your content Steve

very fine actor, did fine work

I have to say that if that moustache was actually his at 1:17, and not a prop, it is epic!

I REMEMBER HIM IN THOSE MANY SHOWS AND HIS PIERCING BLUE EYES!!! 👀

Always interesting content. Thank you 😊

Corbett will ALWAYS be Zefram Cochrane to Trekkers everywhere. Star Trek Lives!!!

When I saw Glenn in a navy 1st class uniform it threw me off when I saw on his tombstone he was a CM3. I then realized the former was a publicity photo, especially since his hat wasn't squared away.

Love your series! You have such a great narrating voice. Hate when you end your videos with ‘Unless I come to my own sad ending.’ Let’s hope that ain’t for a several years at least.

Thank you

ALWAYS had a crush on him. Star Trek and Shenandoah!!

Gone too soon. Saw him on TV shows such as Cannon, The FBI, Barnaby Jones, ABC Movie Of The Week, Kojak, Columbo, McCloud, McMillan & Wife, The Streets of San Francisco, and other TV shows.

Great work as always Steve. You must be with Dick Cheney in that famous “undisclosed location”…😉

Live long and prosper. No sad ending!!

I enjoy your banter and humor…

Good actor

Maybe it's just me, but Corbett reminds me of Robert Conrad.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️much love from Mississippi ❤

What beautiful blue eyes he had! My brother got married at South Fork Ranch. Quite expensive. Now divorced. Lol

Get You Kicks! On Rte...

Star Trek Metamorphosis was just on today. 🤓😎🖖🏼

You gotta do one on Martin Mull.

IT APPEARS, EVERYONE WHO WORKED WITH JOHN WAYNE ON THE MOVIE SETS IN THE DESERT WHERE THEY DID NUCLEAR TESTING, ALL DIED OF CANCER!!! SAD

I used to get Heather Thomas and Heather Locklear confused (just like Tommy Lee in "The Dirt") but then I did my own video for my channel on the difference between the two and figured it out! Unlike Tommy Lee, I never gor to date either of them.

I get Dabney Coleman and Gavin McLeod confused! Didn't know anyone else had a similar affliction. Wonder what causes it?

Sometimes I get confused on Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton. Was Glenn Corbett relative of Gretchen Corbett?

I USED TO MIX UP SPENCER TRACY AND JAMES WHITMORE!!! 🙃🙃🙃

I only knew him from star Trek lol 😂

I remember him best from the Star Trek episode but then again I am a closeted ST junkie. BTW, I always get Timothy Hutton and Tim Robbins confused. So annoying. 😆

According to Maharis He was fired from Route 66 because he was Gay not health Corbett couldn't replace him

I wonder if he was a smoker?

Thank you
