No need to name names (unless you insist), but have there ever been promising actors you've worked with early in their careers, who seemed good, nice, hard-working, fun, talented, with a bright future ahead of them, but who became rich, successful, "professional celebrities" later on and it got to their heads, turning them into arrogant scumbags, divas, misanthrops (or whatever) and you're glad you never had to do with them again?Markusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-16511318374468902172017-12-24T19:27:19.790-08:002017-12-24T19:27:19.790-08:00And keep in mind quite a few who were mentioned ha...And keep in mind quite a few who were mentioned have political beliefs far different than Ken's (Grammer) or are associated with religions many are skeptical about (Elfman is a Scientologist, but Ken has said in the past that's never presented a problem when working with her).<br /><br />A merry Christmas to all, and to those who aren't Christians, the spirit of the season (in theory, if unfortunately not necessarily in practice).VP81955https://www.blogger.com/profile/11792390726196611188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-44993805700689947942017-12-24T16:28:29.683-08:002017-12-24T16:28:29.683-08:00I'm glad Eddie/Moose was nice.

...A fun list with a lot of great memories attached.<br /><br />I was just thinking about David Schramm the other day. I gather he's still active in theater, but you have to give him credit for doing Wings and then walking away from Hollywood forever (its been 20 years since his last IMDB credit so that's forever in my book).ODJenningsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-75807197213627932782017-12-24T14:05:24.048-08:002017-12-24T14:05:24.048-08:00Rest in Peace to Bugs Bunny animator Bob Givens.

He also actually resembles William Fichtner (sp?), whose brother he played. Tim Daly is great on MADAM SECRETARY, and Tony Shaloub is just awesome wherever he goes.Charles H.
