Larry Tate is always around, but where is Mc Man? Who is he? Was he ever on an episode I can't recall? Does anybody know?:confused:

Mr. McMann was Larry Tate's partner in the firm - and was only seen in 2 episodes...he was played by:

Roland Winters - "Man of the Year" (1968 - Season 4)
Leon Ames - "What Makes Darrin Run?" (1970 - Season 6)

As much as Darrin does for that firm, you'd think it would be called Stephens & Tate. Forget McMann, lol.

By all rights, by the time of the Darrin switch, Darrin should have been made a partner.

Honestly, this was why the later seasons are generally looked down upon--the characters had long stopped growing and there was no progress in Darrin's professional career--he was still basically Larry's errand boy/bi***. Larry himself was a parody of his character.

Larry held the promotion over Darrin's head to get his way and Darrin never got the promotion he deserved.

I'm sure glad Larry's not my boss. :lol:

If I were Darrin, I would have left McMann and Tate a long time ago!

My boss is always threatening to change my hours and stuff to get me to work harder. Now, I personally think I work hard, and everyone else there (I work at Kroger as a cleaner/bagger) think I work hard, and a lot of people compliment me. I say that so you know I'm not a slacker, I've just got a boss that is hard to please.

Anyways, once I told a co-worker that with all of the boss's threats "I feel like I'm working for Larry Tate." lol They laughed, so I assume they got the reference.

I use to work for Super K as a cashier, the only thing that drove me crazy was getting broken registers, uggh.

Your boss doesn't call you "buddy boy" and "son of a gun", does he?? :lol:
