Richard Chamberlain, the sandy-haired TV heartthrob who starred on the popular 1960s medical drama “Dr. Kildare” and later was touted as “king of the miniseries” for his leading roles in ratings sensations such as “Shogun” and “The Thorn Birds,” died March 29 in Waimanalo, Hawaii. He was 90.

The cause was complications from a stroke, said his publicist, Harlan Boll.

I was one of those kids who had a crush on him in his Dr. Kildare days. I thought he the handsomest actor on television. Later, I appreciated it when he showed his acting ability. My favorite mini-series of his was The Thorn Birds.

Yes! We all were in love with him.
