Monte Markham also did a History Channel show

[edit]

I think it was called The Great Ships or something like that. I only saw Markham on the Star Trek: DS9 episode he did. However, I thought he was better doing non-fiction than fiction based on that show.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Will Pittenger (talk) • contribs) 21:58, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Monte Markham: The Second Hundred Years

[edit]

My first memory of Monte Markham was a short-lived comedy series on ABC in the 60s called The Second Hundred Years. The premise of the show was that the main character had fallen into a glacier in Alaska in the 1800s. He was frozen in suspended animation for about 70 years, then was found, thawed, and revived. In the show, this would have made him 101 years old (hence the title of the series) even though he still appeared to be about 30. While this character was frozen, his son grew up and had a son of his own, who happens to be a splitting image of the now-thawed grandfather.

Monte Markham played two roles on the show: the resuscitated grandfather and the grandson. The son (between Monte's two generations) was played by Arthur O'Connell. The show only lasted one season, I think. I'm surprised that this show is not mentioned in either the Wikipedia article or in the filmography.

War Service

[edit]

None of the sources cited mention him serving in either the Korean War (which started when he was 15 years old) or Vietnam, so not sure why the article suggested he did. I removed reference to this pending a reliable source.2604:3D09:C77:4E00:6DBE:7152:DBE1:516D (talk) 2604:3D09:C77:4E00:6DBE:7152:DBE1:516D (talk) 13:47, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
