Robert Colbert

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robert Colbert (born July 26, 1931, in Long Beach, California) is an American actor most noted for his leading role portraying Dr. Doug Phillips on the TV series The Time Tunnel and his two appearances as Brent Maverick in Maverick in 1961, forced by the studio to dress exactly as lookalike James Garner had in Garner's earlier role of Bret Maverick. (Thinking of the inevitable comparisons to Garner that were bound to ensue, Colbert famously said to his bosses, "Put me in a dress and call me Brenda, but don't do this to me!"[citation needed]) Colbert also appeared as the character Stuart Brooks on the TV soap opera The Young and the Restless from 1973 to 1983. In 1981, Colbert and Robert Culp were suggested by CBS as possible replacements for Larry Hagman's J.R. Ewing, after Hagman decided to hold out for more money (like his friend Carroll O'Connor had successfully done in 1974).
