Burt Reynolds is receiving so many heartwarming tributes from those who worked with him or simply admired him. MeTV is airing his early Gunsmoke episodes and his Tonight Show appearances, and another nostalgia station (which we dont receive--darn) is airing Dan August and Hawk.

The day after he died, I noticed people lined up at the newspaper shelf at Wegmans. I stopped to look when I left, and there were the NY tabloid (Post/Daily News) cover stories with plenty of photos, which drew the attention of young people, too.

Even Loni Anderson released a touching statement on behalf of herself and their son, and theirs was a very contentious divorce. Still, I read once that Reynolds had called her about 6 years ago when his sister died of Alzheimer's. He said that he felt comfortable enough to call her, and that they had a nice conversation.

I think he'd be happy with his legacy.

At one point, it was available Sunday evenings on either MeTV or AntennaTV, and enjoyed seeing these reruns while they lasted. Don't think the show's available anymore, though. Agreed, it would be a good show for a station like that to carry.

Didn't he date Diana Shore for a long time?
And didn't he costar with Dolly Partin in the Best Little Whorehouse in Texas?

Yes to both questions.
