One of my favourite lines:
Frank: It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.
Jane: Goodyear?
Frank: No, the worst.

He wasn't always a comedy actor, his early stuff before Police Squad and Airplane was guest star roles in TV shows and TV Movies, he usually played the bad guy and always a very heavy dramatic storyline. There's one TV movie he did where a bridge was collapsing and he wouldn't let anyone off it , he was the bad guy in that. He was always cropping up in the shows I watched in my teenage years.
The last thing I saw him in he looked unwell and had lost alot of weight. Very good actor.

Ahhh now I know why I watched the bridge movie! Brendan Boone (Chief) was in it!
