I DO remember him from Bachelor Father, Charlie's Angels and of course Dynasty. He had something that few actors have "CLASS". P.S. Also, he had a very funny cameo role with Bill Murray in the movie "Scrooged". When I read the news on Google, I was sadden, that another of the boomer TV fathers had passed.

I was on a few of those sailing excursions with Mike Petrie and John Forsythe and others and suspect one of the reasons John came back to sailing was because, back in those days, Mike was the most enthusiastic sailor I'd ever met. His passion for sailing was contagious. That may be the real reason John wanted back in. Nice article and tribute to a fine actor-sailor who will be missed by all. I remember this.

So suave. Dynasty was a staple for me in the 1980s. John Forsythe got even more handsome as he got older. Not at all surprising that he enjoyed sailing. It fits. Thoroughbred horses, tennis ... and yachting. One of the few truly handsome, debonair Hollywood hunks. So suave. Dynasty was a staple for me in the 1980s.
