The family announced the death家属公布了死讯

He was 84.

Deadline reports that the family said Wright died peacefully surrounded by loved ones; The Hollywood Reporter carries the announcement without that wording. Deadline gives the date as Tuesday, 27 October, while The Hollywood Reporter says only that he died on Tuesday. Neither outlet reports a cause of death, and neither describes a funeral or memorial arrangement. Deadline calls him the last surviving cast member of McHale's Navy; The Hollywood Reporter does not make that claim.Deadline 报道,家属称 Wright 在亲人陪伴下平静离世;《The Hollywood Reporter》转述了家属公布的消息,但没有这句话。Deadline 给出的日期是10月27日周二,《The Hollywood Reporter》只说他在周二去世。两家媒体都没有报道死因,也都没有提到葬礼或追悼安排。Deadline 称他是《McHale's Navy》剧组最后一位在世的演员,《The Hollywood Reporter》没有这一说法,它在提到死讯时也没有重复家属的原话。
Willy Moss, on all 138 episodesWilly Moss,演满138集
The Hollywood Reporter reports that Wright appeared in all 138 episodes of McHale's Navy, which starred Ernest Borgnine, Joe Flynn and Tim Conway and aired for four seasons from 1962 to 1966. Deadline reports the series ran on ABC over the same years, was created by Edward Montagne, and followed the misadventures of a U.S. Navy P.T. crew stationed on the fictional Pacific island base of Taratupa.《The Hollywood Reporter》报道,Wright 在《McHale's Navy》全部138集中出场;该剧由 Ernest Borgnine、Joe Flynn 与 Tim Conway 主演,1962年至1966年共播出四季。Deadline 报道该剧同样在1962年至1966年由 ABC 播出,创作者是 Edward Montagne,故事围绕一支美国海军鱼雷艇小队在虚构的太平洋岛屿基地 Taratupa 的种种遭遇展开。两篇报道对剧集的基本信息描述一致,只有集数由《The Hollywood Reporter》给出。
Deadline describes Wright's Willy as part of a decidedly un-militaristic but always battle-ready crew under Borgnine's Lieutenant Commander Quinton McHale, an unconventional officer forever at odds with Flynn's strict, by-the-book and entirely ineffective Captain Binghamton. The Hollywood Reporter reports that the show was set on the Navy boat PT-73 in the Pacific during the Second World War. Both outlets note that he was billed as John Wright on the series.Deadline 把 Wright 饰演的 Willy 描述为 Borgnine 饰演的少校 Quinton McHale 手下那名“完全不守军规、却随时能打仗”的船员之一;McHale 是个不按常理出牌的军官,永远与 Flynn 饰演的、严格照章办事却毫无成效的 Binghamton 上尉对立。《The Hollywood Reporter》报道,该剧的场景设在二战期间太平洋上的一艘海军舰艇 PT-73 上。两家媒体都提到,他在该剧中的署名是 John Wright。两家都没有说明这个角色在剧中承担什么情节。
Two features and a handful of guest roles两部电影与几个客串角色
Both outlets report that he appeared with the rest of the cast in the 1964 feature McHale's Navy. They date the follow-up differently: Deadline places McHale's Navy Joins The Air Force in 1965, The Hollywood Reporter places it in 1966. Neither outlet explains the discrepancy.两家媒体都报道,他与原班人马一起出演了1964年的电影《McHale's Navy》。续集的年份两家写法不同:Deadline 把《McHale's Navy Joins The Air Force》定在1965年,《The Hollywood Reporter》定在1966年。两家都没有解释这一差异,也都没有提到这部续集的票房或评价。
Deadline reports that after the series ended Wright had a brief acting career, with 1966 episodes of the CBS comedy Pistols 'n' Petticoats and the NBC Western The Road West. The Hollywood Reporter reports that he played a robber on a 1966 episode of Pistols 'n' Petticoats, which it calls a short-lived Western starring Anne Sheridan, and that he appeared in the 1974 film Catch the Black Sunshine, starring Ted Cassidy and Chris Robinson.Deadline 报道,剧集结束后 Wright 的演员生涯很短暂,只出演了1966年 CBS 喜剧《Pistols 'n' Petticoats》与 NBC 西部剧《The Road West》的各一集。《The Hollywood Reporter》报道,他在1966年《Pistols 'n' Petticoats》的一集中饰演一名劫匪——该媒体称这是一部由 Anne Sheridan 主演、播出时间很短的西部剧——并出演了1974年由 Ted Cassidy 与 Chris Robinson 主演的电影《Catch the Black Sunshine》。Deadline 用“短暂”来形容这段演员生涯,《The Hollywood Reporter》则补上了这部1974年的电影。
21 singles and a No. 13 hit21首上榜单曲与一首第13名
Deadline reports that as Bobby Wright he placed more than 20 singles on the Billboard Country Songs chart between 1967 and 1979, and that his biggest, 1971's “Here I Go Again”, reached No. 13. The Hollywood Reporter puts the count at 21 singles on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart and gives the same peak for the same song. Neither report gives a total sales figure or a music award nomination.Deadline 报道,以 Bobby Wright 之名,他在1967年至1979年间有20多首单曲进入 Billboard 乡村歌曲榜,其中1971年的《Here I Go Again》成绩最好,最高第13位。《The Hollywood Reporter》给出的数字是21首进入 Billboard 热门乡村歌曲榜,同一首歌的最高名次相同。两家报道都没有给出唱片总销量,也没有提到任何音乐奖项提名;Deadline 用的是“乡村歌曲榜”这一名称,《The Hollywood Reporter》用的是“热门乡村歌曲榜”。
Deadline reports two more Top 40 entries, “Lovin' Someone on My Mind” in 1973 and “Seasons in the Sun” in 1974, and notes that Terry Jacks had a No. 1 pop hit with his version of the latter that same year. The Hollywood Reporter lists “Lay Some Happiness on Me”, “Everybody Needs a Rainbow”, “I'm Turning You Loose” and the “Seasons in the Sun” cover among his other singles. Both outlets report that he recorded for Decca, ABC and United Artists Records from 1967 to 1979.Deadline 报道,另有两首单曲进入前40:1973年的《Lovin' Someone on My Mind》与1974年的《Seasons in the Sun》,并提到 Terry Jacks 同年翻唱的版本拿下了流行榜冠军。《The Hollywood Reporter》把他的其他单曲列为《Lay Some Happiness on Me》《Everybody Needs a Rainbow》《I'm Turning You Loose》以及《Seasons in the Sun》的翻唱。两家媒体都报道,他在1967年至1979年间为 Decca、ABC 与 United Artists 三家唱片公司录音,但两家列出的曲目并不完全相同:Deadline 只点出其中两首,没有给出其余歌名。
Kitty Wells, Johnnie Wright and the family showKitty Wells、Johnnie Wright 与家庭巡演
Both outlets report that Wright was the son of Kitty Wells and the country singer Johnnie Wright. Deadline calls Wells the first major female country singer to top the U.S. charts, which she did in 1952 with “It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels”. The Hollywood Reporter calls her a Country Music Hall of Fame member and country's first female superstar, with nearly three dozen Top 10 hits between 1952 and 1965, and reports that Johnnie Wright toured the South in an act called Johnnie & Jack, with Wells often performing with them.两家媒体都报道,Wright 是 Kitty Wells 与乡村歌手 Johnnie Wright 的儿子。Deadline 称 Wells 是第一位登上美国榜单榜首的重要乡村女歌手,她在1952年凭《It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels》做到这一点。《The Hollywood Reporter》称她是乡村音乐名人堂成员、乡村乐第一位女性巨星,1952年至1965年间有近三十首前十单曲,并报道 Johnnie Wright 曾以 Johnnie & Jack 的组合在南方巡演,Wells 常与他们同台。Deadline 用“首位登上美国榜首的重要乡村女歌手”来定位她。
The Hollywood Reporter reports that Wright sang with his parents on the Louisiana Hayride at eight, played guitar, and moved with the family to Nashville in 1958 when his parents became headliners at the Grand Ole Opry. Both outlets report that he toured with the family show until 2007. Deadline names it the Kitty Wells Johnnie Wright and Bobby Wright family show; The Hollywood Reporter calls it the syndicated Kitty Wells Johnnie Wright Family Show and reports that he also played bass, trumpet and drums.《The Hollywood Reporter》报道,Wright 八岁时就与父母一起在 Shreveport 的乡村音乐节目《Louisiana Hayride》上演唱并弹吉他;1958年父母成为 Grand Ole Opry 的头牌演员后,全家搬到纳什维尔。两家媒体都报道,他随家庭巡演至2007年。Deadline 把这场演出称为 Kitty Wells Johnnie Wright and Bobby Wright family show;《The Hollywood Reporter》称其为联合播出的 Kitty Wells Johnnie Wright Family Show,并报道他还会弹贝斯、小号和鼓。两家都没有说明这个家庭节目在哪些电视台播出。

The survivor lists differ.

The Hollywood Reporter lists a sister, Carol Sue, the same two daughters, four grandchildren by name, five great-grandchildren and his former wife Brenda.
