In one memorable storyline, Ritchie's character traveled back in time to the Old West, where he visited his cowboy ancestors. This was familiar territory for Ritchie, who began his career with appearances on TV westerns like Wild, Wild West. It was the role of Clint Buchanan that would earn him a rabid fan base, however, and the actor became so heavily associated with the role that even when he was critically hurt in a tractor accident in 1993, he still returned to the series following his recovery, making intermittent appearances until 2004. Ritchie passed away in 2009, at the age of 71. ~ Cammila Albertson, Rovi
