The show dramatized the settling of the West over centuries by focusing on one town in Colorado. I have already written about one of my favorite TV miniseries, Lonesome Dove, but another one of my all-time favorites is the 1978 12-part Centennial, which originally ran on TV in two and three hour segments over a four-month period. But to me he will always be Hans Brumbaugh, the immigrant who started out as a gold miner and ended up as a Colorado farmer in the miniseries Centennial. Or maybe they will remember him as Mongo in Blazing Saddles (1974) or as George Papadapolison the TV series Webster (1983-1987). Many will remember him for his excellent play on the field or his nights in the Monday Night Football booth. This week, Alex Karras, a defensive tackle for the Detroit Lions passed away.
