I was a Marine at 29 Palms on a CAX when I went into Palm Springs. I met Gautier. What a nice guy. Hung out for a little while. I was a 19 year old nobody.

A classic fellow.

Here is an outtake of Gautier as *Hymie the Robot* in the season 2 episode "Anatomy of a Lover."

I was in college when the show was popular.

It spawned a lot of quotes such as “Would you believe”?

Hymie, would you answer the door please?

Hello, door ... what was that question again?

Loved that show ... especially Hymie.

“He played Robin Hood in “When Things Were Rotten” the short-lived Mel Brooks TV series.”

That’s what I was going to say.

RIP.

But I had to start laughing at my first thought.

As Hymie he had the classic men's haircut.

I was disappointed later when in When Things Were Rotten he had that gay 70's long hair men's style.

Looks stupid but people were (and are) lemmings.
