I love the video! For anyone who never knew Peter, and any who may have wondered, this was a kind, loving man, a man with a sense of humor and personality every bit as large as his onscreen presence. I will always miss him greatly, and I love to see so many still paying him homage. Thank you so much to all those who made Peter feel like his life was worthwhile.
I know that I'm commenting way late, but I always thought that Peter Breck's character, Nick, was the most handsome and brash (if that's the word) on the Big Valley!! If you wanted to get things done, you could always count on Nick Barclay!! He and his wife made such a beautiful pair - loved their wedding pictures, BTW! God bless you and keep you and your family, Peter!! I am sure that Heaven is an even happier place, since there's a new Guardian Angel!!🙂🙂✝️⚜️
I met Peter at my print shop in Surrey Bc in the 1990's! He would come in for photocopies of some of his publicity pictures! It was always fun to see him, about every second week, for about a year! It was fun talking to him and we always had a few good laughs! RIP Peter.
I luv this! Where have all out strong leading men gone? Peter Breck brought such a srong presence to The Big Valley. It is still my favorite TV western! The wedding photos are beautiful! Thank you for this exceptional tribute! The song is Beautiful!
My Cousin Peter Breck was a good man... Unfortunately I only spent about 45 minutes with him when I was in the 3rd grade. After a Wild West Show he put on for our School at the request of His Aunt (our School Nurse). He was great.. Performed Rope Tricks, Quick Draw, Cut News Paper and Cigarette in half out of our Principles mouth with a Bull Whip. Called several different kids up on stage to assist him.. The kids around me were giving me a hard time not believing me that Peter was my Cousin. A teacher overheard and asked me if this was true. I informed her my dad told me. When the show was over we all went back to our class rooms. Over the loud speaker I was being called down to the office... Upon entering the office I saw Peter Breck standing there.. We went into the Nurses room and spent some time talking. He wanted to know about my family and how we all were... Told me about his Show "Black Saddle" and his life... It was an Awesome time... He gave me one of the bullets from his Gun Belt... I Truely wish I had looked him up when I graduated High School in 1970... Awww...What Could have been...?
So very sad I just now saw Peter died two yes ago.I loved all the movies I've ever seen of him. Never saw him speak trash or be in r rated movies.He was so good looking and great actor.He leaves behind a good legacy to me.
trwent Maybe it was an honest mistake from someone writing a quick comment. That can happen sometimes. Their's a large grope of peeple out they're who just don't kare. When u point out there errors they excuse u of being grammer nazi's. They fight there own spell check systems, and sum even take pride in there ignorance. There the same 1's who will either spend a lifetime flipping burgers, or end up wandering in old age why all the Asian immigrants ended up with all the high paying jobs. They aint got know time too learnt proper like! It is, to say the least, extremely discouraging.
The original bad ass on the Barkley ranch and a great person as well. You are missed Peter Breck RIP IN THE PRESENCE OF ALMIGHTY GOD IN JESUS NAME 🙏🏻✝️
Fantastic video and some nice choices on pictures. Funny when you see people in reruns for so long you think they'd be around forever. Godspeed, Peter.
My foremost childhood idol. And it's been a pleasure, over the years, with so many of my other idols showing their true ugly colors, to realize that HERE'S one life that was truly well-lived. Thanks for the very nice retrospective.
Nice tribute. Thank you. I always enjoyed Peter. Some years ago I met and chatted with his then wife. She told me he was so far gone that he didn't even remember being an actor much less The Big Valley. Sad. What a terrible was to go. Dementia is an ugly disease. :(
Thank you for posting this. Mr. Breck was my acting coach for a very short time but I admired him all my life. Hope to see him again. One great cowboy!
Didn't exactly have a great role model in real life so as a boy I tried to be like Nick Barkley. He was my idea of what a man should be. Now I'm 60 and still trying to live up to the role Peter Breck played. RIP sir
PETER BRECK THIS A GREAT TRIBUTE TOO PETER BEAUTIFUL PICTURES OF HIM THIS MAN GOT TALENT AND A FAMILY MAN WHAT'S GREAT HONOR TOO THIS BEAUTIFUL PERSON I LOVE IT'S THANKS FOR SHOWING THIS❤❤❤
Thank you so much; you did a lovely job on this! "Nick" was my first love, and that big, bright smile always lifts my spirits. What a sweet glimpse into his family life. Rest in peace, Peter. The world is poorer without you here.
Peter Breck was in my opinion a fine example of manhood from the top of his head all the way down to the tip of his toes.mmmmm mmmmm!rest in eternal peace Peter
Mr. Breck was my acting coach in Vancouver, at one time. He was such an intelligent, kind, sweet man. Very masculine without being brutish, and had a great sense of humor and humanity.
Thank you, +Cowgirl at heart, for your tribute in pictures and song. Remember Me?!? Peter Breck, a familiar face playing Doc Holliday in "Maverick" S5/E5 (H&I channel, showing oldies). Peter looks a lot like James Garner (Bret Maverick). Both so handsome! What a marvelous tribute to a man who may well be every cowgirl's dream.
Nick was my favorite watch it every day on antenna t.v.Seen every episode countless times but never tire watching them.P.S. loved Coco his horse,I read somewhere when Coco was retired Peter bought him and cared for him at his home.Is that true?
I met Mr. Breck once only because his Mother Mary Breck was a secretary at the High School I went to! It was a thrill meeting a famous celebrity and yes what a handsome man he was!
I wrote him before he died just to tell him what a big fan I was of him in THE BIG VALLEY and he was gracious enough to write me a nice reply; I treasure it
Peter was in the series with the forever lovely Barbara Stanwycch in "Big Valley...so many, many westerns back in the day & I lived them all..."Big Saddle" was Peters series only going 2 years I think. Most all of them were from the old western movie genre stars or new ones on scene as Peter or also one like Peter Brown, with John Russel in "The Lawman".....You think there was maybe 150 westerns before, then with the big explosion of westerns in late 50's-early 60's? (some lasted only a year or few years...others longer with Gunsmoke going on from 1955-1975 while all others came and left. Many of the ones to be in own shows made some appearance with Matt Dillon...I loved the Peter Breck episodes...both times he was a good guy...I could go on and on...I loved this guy, he died one year after Jim Arness......(I always wanted so badly to see Matt Dillon with a real, genuine deputy...a serious one and Peter Breck would have been perfect with Matt for 20 years) Instead we put up with most awful of all the monster, useless actors that only ruin all they are in on screen...THE "Festus," also Thad and Newly....(Chester could have been office janitor and get mail yet...minimize any serious part, etc...rest can plague somewhere else.) And I wish so much there would be a good...really good 2 hour special on TV or internet (Yahoo?) giving good history and scenes from all these old westerns from TV...make it 3 hours and give 1st hour to the silver screen regular and popular westerns like Rocky Lane (also in Gunsmoke several times) then do the TV last 2 hours...it would go over big..put it on DVD too. ...Peter Breck, you were great, you should have ben Matt dillons deputy for 20 years. Then I could watch all of Gunsmoke shows now and not have to avoid 10 years of them with that nut job Festus, etc...forever a puzzle...even Dennis Weaver left after 9 years...no good reason why but I have suspicion.
I want will always remember you you were the most handsome men I have ever seen I have loved u since I was a child u were a terrific actor one of a kind Diane was lucky to have you
On the Big Valley, Nick Barkley was frequently hot-tempered and impulsive. But I have read that Peter Breck was actually nothing like that at all. Rather, he was thoughtful, kind, and gentle, certainly NOT a hothead.
March 28-2020. That was a very nice tribute to Peter Breck. (Nick Barkley). Could you Please make a tribute to Richard Long ? ( Jarrod Barkley) Victoria as well. Thank you God Bless .
I didn't think he was that handsome when I was a young girl. Lee Majors was my heartthrob then. But now that I'm older and watch the Big Valley reruns I think he is but I still thought Lee Majors was so sexy looking.
I love the video! For anyone who never knew Peter, and any who may have wondered, this was a kind, loving man, a man with a sense of humor and personality every bit as large as his onscreen presence. I will always miss him greatly, and I love to see so many still paying him homage. Thank you so much to all those who made Peter feel like his life was worthwhile.
Peter Breck is one of the most underrated actor of all time.
By far the greatest of his time.
The most handsome of all the Barkley men! Rest in peace, Peter! You're missed but not forgotten!
Well that is saying something because they were all pretty handsome!!
Nick Barkley was truly the best. I Love this guy. Godspeed Nick Barkley
I know that I'm commenting way late, but I always thought that Peter Breck's character, Nick, was the most handsome and brash (if that's the word) on the Big Valley!!

My favorite Western, and he was the most colorful character on that show...
Love the roll he played as Nick. The big valley. Will always be my favorite show since I was a kid..
+Avel Trejo The roll? As in a dinner roll? How about the ROLE ??

I loved Peter Breck's role as Nick Barkley on The Big Valley. He was ready for any beef and didn't take shit off of anybody. R.I.P to a legend.
Love you Peter Breck. Great Cowboy that Nick Barkley. RIP
A MAN'S MAN AND I DO MISS HIM AND WATCH RERUNS OF THE BIG VALLEY IN THE MORNINGS AS I SEE MYSELF GROWING OLDER SO DAMN FAST. SEE YOU NICK

He was certainly gorgeous when he was young.
Such a sweet tribute. I am so glad you included a picture of Peter and Pernell Roberts. They were friends.

@Victoria Robertson Unless you personally know he is, NOBODY knows if he indeed is in Heaven.
Well... thanks for making me cry!!! Miss him so much. Wonderful job on the video; handful of photos I'd never seen before.
Mr. Breck was my acting coach in Vancouver, at one time. He was such an intelligent, kind, sweet man. Very masculine without being brutish, and had a great sense of humor and humanity.
What a wonderful man in real life and on screen.
Thanks for some great pics of one super hot guy!!

Remember you as Nick Barckly The big Valley i wish i lived there love💔💐 you, your & your btother always in my mind.
They don't make'em like that anymore.
+Gary Loger they dont and the world is an emptier place.
Sadly they don't, which makes the memory that more special.
He and Richard Long were the handsomest men from The Big Valley cast, and I found Peter Breck to be so manly
Beautiful handsome man!❤️
I Love you Peter. I remember.
I met Mr. Breck once only because his Mother Mary Breck was a secretary at the High School I went to! It was a thrill meeting a famous celebrity and yes what a handsome man he was!
He was a mighty FINE Hunk of man. Truly.
RIP sir. He passed away a few days before my son died.
I wrote him before he died just to tell him what a big fan I was of him in THE BIG VALLEY and he was gracious enough to write me a nice reply; I treasure it
brilliant actor. watch the big valley everyday. boy could he make those facial expressions. rip!
He only had one child, a son who died from leukemia at age 30. Some people sure have crosses to bear. ❤
my favorite and so handsome
Thank you. He was one of my favs!
