Aaron,Larry King and actor Gregory Sierra. I remember Gregory Sierra as the bartender in The Towering Inferno, Carlos. I must have watched that movie three or four dozen times, and I could watch it again. One of my favorites of all time.

Sierra was great in Barney Miller and Sanford and Son plus had a great one off role in All In The Family as a JDL member who is blown up in his car at the end of the episode.Sierra worked often throughout his long career. I got to see Aaron when I went to a Mets-Braves Sunday doubleheader early 70's(when every Sunday was a doubleheader) and Nolan Ryan started one of the games and had to be pulled early because he raised a blister on his finger which was an on going problem for him at the time.

Speaking of bartenders one of my favorite character actors was Joe Turkel who played that role in The Shining.I met him at a Chiller Theatre convention and we spoke for awhile-he was like myself a Brooklyn boy and we spoke about his roles working for Kubrick and his one Bowery Boys film he did.Definitely a nice down to earth guy.

He also was Sonny Crockett's first partner in Miami Vice, in the pilot episode I think it was, but he got killed off in that episode.

How many actors went from TV to porn? It can't be many.

Aaron,Larry King and actor Gregory Sierra. To me, the ComesInThrees was Aaron, King and Don Sutton. All had ties to The Ted Turner Empire. I talked with Don a few times as our Braves seat were right by the Broadcast BoOTH.
