Not sure what to say?

I had a Major Crush on Michael Callan, the 1st time I saw him in Mysterious Island!
Followed his career ever since. Dearly loved him in Cat Ballou! He was a dream! Loved His Smile! His Dancing! Acting!
Did not miss his TV Show "Occasional Wife"
My Sincere Sympathies to Michael's Family & Loved Ones.
God Bless You All.

New Michael as a friend and classmate at Northeast high-school in Philly. Have picture of him in my yearbook in drag. Our school was all boys. Ma rest in peace. Harold Schwartz

Rest in Peace Michael.

Michael Callan was such an important entertainer to myself and my family growing up. I was very young, but the first moment my mom showed me Michael playing Clay in Cat Ballou, I developed not only a huge crush on the guy, but his characterization of Clay shaped what and who I wanted in a life partner! He was so gorgeous with that mischievous smile and spark in his eyes. And wearing that cowboy hat...nobody is as handsome in a cowboy hat as Michael! Seems he had it all, gorgeous looks (REALLY...

I was so enamored with him when I was a kid! So talented as an actor and dancer and a really great-looking guy too! I miss the days of films he was in, a much gentler time!

Very handsome. Saw him once at a restrauant in Beverly Hills years ago. Loved all movies he started in
RIP

I was a fan of Michaels. While looking for any updates of Micheal Callan; I was saddened when I came to realize he passed away 2 years ago. I recall, when the movie Cat Balou was released in theaters. I watched it. I also watched him in the movie GIDGET Goes Hawaiian when it was released in theaters. He was a good dancer. I enjoyed watching him in other movies, and guest appearances in series shows too. I was born during the mid 1950's. I feel totally blessed to have been born during this...

I loved this guy in all of his acting roles !!!

05/30/2023, just learned of Michael's death after I watched an episode of "Hazel". He played a relative of Mr Baxter. He was so handsome and such a good actor. He will be missed. I was so impressed by his bio of his show business credits. I am going to look up some of his films and watch his work. His memory will live on in his acting credits. He was a special talent.
