Dude also needs his own thread. So smooth, in so much cool stuff. Please post your thoughts, favorites etc here.

Here is an interview with him 3 years before he died and he is still smooth as silk and cool as hell.

Yeah, Telly! He was in a cool movie called Horror Train which also had Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Telly was a scenery chewing Cosack intercepting a Train in 1920's Mongolia or somewhere like that which also had a body-taking-over alien on board. Although not a fan of remakes; this particular movie is screaming for a remake. He also did a cool Western where he portrayed Poncho Villa and had Clint Walker as a sidekick; B movie like, but pretty good, and Telly seemed perfectly at home.

Telly Savalas had sort of a side career as a singer.
The cool thing is that he didn't even sing in his songs! Just talked in his voice.

Here is the original video of his biggest hit called If, which is a real treat if you haven't seen it give the man a watch and see how to act around a lady.

He's a real role model! I'd like to think I could pull off a shirt like that (I have my doubts). I had been DVRing Kojac reruns on MeTV but we just switched to DirectTV from UVerse and now we don't have MeTV anymore. If I had thought to check it might have been a deal killer!
