Macho in Malibu
Battle of the Network Stars. A TV genre took hold, as did a 40-year grudge.
Gabe Kaplan
In late 2018, I went to have lunch with Robert Conrad, a man I once thought might kill me on national TV.
Conrad was a fiery guy, and we d had a few words on-and off-camera on ABC s first
Battle of the Network Stars. Our controversy has been the subject of countless mentions over the last 40 years, but this would be the first time we d ever broken bread. I d always had questions for him. I assume he felt the same way, given his immediate yes when I asked through an intermediary if he would like to finally get together.
