Dang, I can't I ever get a game posted before you do, no matter how early I'm up! At least people have multiple games to go with their morning whatever.

I don't know who most of these people are, sad to say. I know Conrad was the guy with the Duracell battery on his shoulder. Or was that Chuck Connors? I think Janssen was the original Prisoner or Fugitive or something (mainly I know this from a recent NYT crossword). Garner and Selleck were both tv detectives, so I guess I'll go with that. Hopefully the other nine didn't do poke-out-your-eyes-and-puncture-your-eardrums Polaroid ads with Mariette Hartley.

That's ROBERT Conrad (Jim West, Pappy Boyington)! He's very much alive BTW. David Janssen was Harry O as well as Dr. Richard Kimble.

This is Timothy Hutton's father. He played Ellery Queen in the late 70s. I loved this show and was really upset back in '79 (I think that was the year) when I learned he died of a heart attack. One of the first celebrity deaths that really affected me

Never heard of two of them, and don't know what TV show Lawford might have been in -- (he sure was on Password and whatnot a lot, though) -- but the rest of them (I think) played PI's in a TV show whose name was in the title. So, that'll be my guess.
