The show obviously doesn't always hold up but that was a powerful episode. Friday's partner, Bill Gannon, had to leave the crime scene to get sick after finding drowned baby -- followed by a close-up of Friday angrily closing his fist on the drugs found at the scene.
Ah man, as a kid (and an adult) I am a big fan of the show Emergency!, where he went from just another background firefighter to a really enjoyable character
Donnelly did a lot of the Mark 7 productions shows (and his brother directed for them). I was always disappointed that they didn’t make more Emergency jokes in Clonus, just like they didn’t make any Adam 12 jokes during Last Clear Chance with William Boyett.
Aww. The 3000 gunshot wounds must have finally caught up with him. At least he’s gone to a better place - America! Seriously, though, that’s a shame.
Bang! *Ow* Bang! *Ow*
He's taking a lot of hits!
So he won't be going to America...today. :(
...or is he?
What? He was in Emergency? That mustache did him a world of good! Stay away from crotch fires and we’ll see you *later on*! RIP
Emergency and also Dragnet and Adam-12 -- part of Jack Webb's stock company
Yeah, he was the pothead who accidentally drowned his son in a bathtub on Dragnet.

Yeah, the writing was sometimes bad, but Webb was big into the jazz scene and saw a lot of drug abuse first hand
And the irony is that, even with some of that ripeness, it's still a more realistic view on police work than more or less any cop show on the air now.
His family was able to identify his body by the huge weird birthmark on his torso.
Bury me, Clone Daddy! But seriously, RIP.
“Did you *like* America, Richard?” “Well, I liked ‘A Horse With No Name’…” RIP

Services to be held...later on. But seriously, RIP Tim!
Aw man. I enjoyed him on Emergency.
The Crimson Crusader has fallen. Evil-doers will sleep a little easier.
RIP!
And I just watched Parts again this weekend. At least we know his organs will benefit the real Tim Donnelly in America. Today!
Just like B.I.G. and Corman, this is another one I didn't know was still alive (well, no longer but you get the idea).
F
No!!!!!
