Someone told me when they were choosing an actor to honor among Northwestern University alumni that they would never allow Paul Lynde to be invited again; he apparently was problematic to be around, especially if he was drinking. He was very funny on "Hollywood Squares" and his old short-lived tv series has resurfaced on channels like Antenna TV.
Charles Nelson Reilly was held in a high regard as a director, frequently working with Julie Harris, and he always seemed like a good-natured, fun person on "Match Game", among other shows. |
