Summer Rerun – TV Show Draft – Bernie’s Birthday

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Today is Bernie Kopell’s 92nd birthday. Many will remember him best as Doc Adam Bricker on the Love Boat, but he was around long before that. He appeared on The Jack Benny Show, That Girl, Ben Casey, When Things Were Rotten, Bewitched, The Danny Thomas Show, The Doris Day Show, Chico and the Man and many more classic shows. I always loved him as Siegfried, the Kaos agent, on Get Smart.

Here he talks a bit about that role:

Here he talks about the show:

Back in 2022, I took part in a TV Show Draft. It was like a fantasy football draft, except we picked TV shows instead of football players. One of my picks was Get Smart. While the blog isn’t completely about Bernie, it is worth sharing again. You can read about it here.

Happy Birthday, Bernie!

I'm just a guy who likes the classics. I love Old Time Radio Shows. I love Classic TV. I love Classic Movies. I love songs from the "Great American Songbook". I dig songs from the first decade of Rock and Roll. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to newer things. My musical taste ranges from Classical to Classic Rock and Country to Rap. I love a good book and am always looking for something to read. I tend to lean toward historical fiction, biographies, mysteries, and more. I have always believed that our past (and the things we've experienced in it) make us who we are today. That being said, after reading through some old My Space blogs (yeah, that's about how long it's been since I blogged regularly), I decided that I should once again write. Welcome to my blog. I hope you find it interesting, thought provoking, and entertaining in some way. CONTACT ME AT - nostalgicitalian@yahoo.com

  2. I love posts like this! All the seventies actors and actresses we grew up with. I need to watch Get Smart again….I haven’t seen it in years.

      1. I also want to watch that show you talked about and I only saw a few times…was it Police Story? The one with humor like Airplane.
