I remember feeling utterly shocked when old Hoss died back in the 70s. He was way too young to go.
Looking through this thread, it seems that that it's become "he's famous and wears a hat". When I think of most of the people/characters posted, I do not think of hats. So far, the only ones that seem famous for their hats are Chaplin (the boots, cane, stache, and hat are Chaplin), movie Sherlock, Laurel and Hardy, Blues Brothers, Lincoln, Churchill, and Indiana Jones. With any of these, "wears a hat" is one of the first phrases anyone would use to describe him/them. That's not true of Sinatra, Bogart, Hendrix, etc., where "wears a hat" might be 20th on the list.
While I tend to agree with you, there were more mentioned that are instantly recognizable with a particular hat or style than you seem to think.
Like Walter Brennan and his open crowned OR, Dan Blocker and his ten gallon, Eastwood and his spaghetti western hats, the character Odd Job [who thinks of him and disregards the demonstration he gave Bond at the country club?], Don Knotts and that panama he wore in everything from The Andy Griffith Show to several Disney flicks... I could go on.

True. But aren't you too young to remember all those TV shows?
Reruns.
or,
'Luuuuthyyy, I'm ho-oome!'
In case you don't recognize this guy who's aged a bit, it's JR Ewing of Dallas.
OK, Larry Hagman being JR Ewing. Either way, he has aged a bit.

Remember them?! I basically only watch old TV shows mingled with a good bit of modern [and classic] British fare.
I was watching The Real McCoys when I was a kid in elementary school, they came on TNN [remember that network before they killed it? :eusa_doh:] every afternoon.
