I loved those Man on the Street segments of the Steve Allen Show..I remember that Tom Poston, played a guy who always forgot his name, and then there was another actor(tho I cannot remember his name), who played an extremely cheery guy name Gordon Hathaway...and then there was Don Knotts, who played the highly nervous little fellow, who could barely speak...now that was comedy...

You got that right! The guy you're thinking of was Louis Nye, who also died within the past year.

Man, all the guys I enjoyed as a kid--they're all going now.

He played the guy who worked with explosives that was always shaking. Steve would ask him 'Are you nervous?' he would reply 'Nope!.
