| Night Gallery: A Question of Fear (1971) [Colonel Dennis Malloy]: Commits suicide by shooting himself while talking to Fritz Weaver over a closed-circuit television; we only hear the shot, then see Leslie's hand fall on the table. The Poseidon Adventure (1972) [Captain Harrison]: Drowned (along with the other crew members) when a giant wave crashes through and floods the boat's bridge. (Thanks to Lawrence) Columbo: Identity Crisis (1975) [A.J. Henderson a.k.a. Geronimo]: Killed by Patrick McGoohan. Project: Kill (Total Control) (1976) [John Trevor]: Fatally injured with a blow to the face at the end of a fight with Gary Lockwood; he dies shortly afterwards as Gary and Nancy Kwan kneel by his side. Day of the Animals (Something Is Out There) (1977) [Paul Jenson]: Killed by wild animals. (Thanks to PortsGuy) Creepshow (1982) [Richard Vickers]: Drowned (off-screen) when the zombies Ted Danson and Gaylen Ross bury him up to his neck at the beach; the story ends with a wave striking his face as the tide comes in.

Surf Ninjas (1993) [Colonel Chi]: Electrocuted when his robotic arm is plunged into a pool of water at the end of a fight with Ernie Reyes Jr. (Thanks to Patricio and Mathew) Dracula: Dead and Loving It (1995) [Count Dracula]: Bursts into flame (while in his bat form) after Peter MacNicol inadvertantly exposes him to sunlight by opening a hatch for Leslie to escape; Leslie still manages to get in the last word at the end of the credits.
