Many, many film, stage and TV credits, including "The Doomsday Machine"
episode of "Star Trek," "Murder, She Wrote," "The Farmer's Daughter" and his
Emmy-winning turn as the Thurberesque lead of "My World and Welcome to It":

As for marathon bait, perhaps Hallmark Movie or TVL may do a "Murder"
marathon or Antenna TV may do a "Farmer's Daughter" marathon.
Unfortunately, "My World," one of those series with a cult following that
only lasted one season, has been out of syndication for decades and is not
on DVD.  Sheldon Leonard produced the series for NBC, so I assume that
because it was an indie production for NBC made pre-Prime Access Rule and
the attached breaking up of the Big 3's syndication arms and the libraries
of NBC Enterprises and ABC Films ended up in CBS' hands due to many
ownership changes, CBS Distribution owns the series.  One could only hope
that Neil Sabin of Weigel Broadcasting will bug the CBS distribution people
enough so that "My World" could show up on MeTV.
