Loved “Blame it on Rio” for a couple of other things!

He was also Rico in the made for TV movie “Copacabana”.

“His name was Rico, he wore a diamond.
He was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there!
And when she finished, he called her over.
But Rico went a bit too far, Tony sailed across the bar.

And then the punches flew
and chairs were smashed in two....”

Bologna as an improv Sid Ceasar in My Favorite Year.
Can still see him taking a hitch on his crotch.

In the heyday of FOX, he starred opposite an unknown Matt LeBlanc in the “Married With Children” spin-off “Top of the Heap.”

His wife of more than 50 years was Renee Taylor. She played the mom to Fran Drescher on The Nanny television show, "Sylvia Fine."

One of my favorite actors. “Lovers And Other Strangers” was the first movie I ever saw; I didn’t know was one of the writers.

I had the pleasure of meeting and talking with him for about 10 mins. He was the type of man you felt you knew all your life - very nice unassuming guy!

I really like(d) him. This frigging sucks.

If you get a chance, check out the movies “Cops & Robbers” and the previously mentioned “Blame It On Rio”.
