The show, about three hippies who become undercover crime fighters, ran from 1968 to 1973. Mr. Cole had been the last of its three stars still living.

He died peacefully, “surrounded by his loved ones after living a full and vibrant life," his rep confirmed in a press release.

Michael Cole, who as a star of 'The Mod Squad' was one of an iconic trio in late-1960s television, has died. He was 84.
