Harry Morgan is a long-time character actor, famous as Col. Sherman Potter on M*A*S*H , and as Officer Bill Gannon, Jack Webb 's sidekick on the 1960s revival of Dragnet . He played Pete, the wacky neighbor, then he took the character to a spin-off series, Pete & Gladys with Cara Williams. But he will live on in the classic shows like MASH, which never gets old on rewatching, always had a soft spot for Col Potter.
On other series, he played sidekick to Dennis Weaver in Kentucky Jones , Robert Conrad on The D.A. , and Richard Boone twice, on the early '60s anthology The Richard Boone Show
His son Charles confirmed his death, suffering from pneumonia recently.
