I saw the headline and thought this was about John Mulaney, who had a shorter, less celebrated sitcom career, with his Seinfeld-type show.

Fun Fact: John Mahoney wasn't really old enough to be Kelsey Grammar's father, so they gave him a cane and a limp.

Fun Fact: John Mahoney actually was born closer to Manchester, England, than Jane Leeves,whose character was supposed to be from there.

Interesting. IIRC, the mother on Good Times was 20 years older in real life than her TV husband.

Yes, Maloney was always helping Leeves with her accent at first. Later seasons, she didn’t bother with it much. Lol.
