Now I'm sure there have been many topics about this character in the past.But I really liked him(although he was actually played by actress Lori Shannon).
His first two episodes are classic!The studio audience just went wild throughout those two episodes.Especially the first one.I'll never forget Archie's shock when Beverly reveals himself to be a man."Why don't you just call me mister?"You hear one audience member yell"WHOAHOHOHO".:lol:
It was quite the tragic shock to see Beverly killed off in his third episode.:eek:He had such a sweet personality.I wonder if Lori Shannon is still alive today?

He died of a heart attack at age 45.

Here is a great interview where he talks about his 2 episodes on All In The Family in 1982.
