[Megotastrophe]

Watching Buck rt now and it struck me how much Lee and Gil look alike.

I always thought a young Lee Majors resembled a young Elvis.

They are both Men's Men, aren't they? I wish I were half as cool.

I never though about it before, but they do look pretty similar. Both rugged space cowboys. Atomic playboys.

This is an Epic Rap Battle waiting to happen. Throw in an appearance by ripped shirt Kirk and perfection.

They were pretty good friends.

Here's what Lee Majors had to say about the resemblance and Elvis' recognition of it.

He called me “Double Trouble,” because they did a movie where he was playing cousins [Kissin’ Cousins], and he had to play a blonde, so he played two parts and had to dye his hair blonde for the one part. And his Memphis Mafia kept teasing him: “You look like that guy on The Big Valley, Heath Barkley!”

Who wouldn't? Heck, throw in Starbuck and the Duke Boys too.

The hunkiest one was Tom Selleck in Magnum PI...

Honestly, I'd rather drive the car.

I never noticed the Lee Majors / Elvis thing, but they do look quite a bit alike.
