I wish Randolph Mantooth or the guy who played Marcus Welby's barber would weigh in on this, to get a balanced perspective.
I was watching a "Baretta" episode a while back and there was an actor, playing a wino, who looked familiar to me. I checked for the name in the credits and looked him up in the Internet Movie Database. Some of his other roles -- "winehead, "bum," "bum #2", and "derelict." I knew he was familiar. Let's get him to testify, too.
