Creator's Key Takeaways
I was cast the night before we started filming the pilot yes so I found out at nine o'clock at night that in the morning I was coming back to change my life for the next 45 years
I went to bartending school in Los Angeles and they gave me two diplomas one for Isaac Washington which we put up in the Acapulco lounge and one for Ted lands
I took a set piece that you may recall I was replaced by Judy McCoy so the cruise director's door now at the end said Jay McCoy
I was in Monaco and John Forsyth was in Monaco and there was a man who had a monumentally gorgeous multi zillion dollar yacht and he invited Forsyth and Wayne Rogers and myself for lunch one day
