Anyone know how Andy Kaufman got on with Christopher Lloyd? - Page 2 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

"the cast would sometimes get annoyed if he showed up late, or something"

LOL , they say the same thing about Burghoff on MASH

Maybe Kaufman had asberger.

Andy was one of the kings of practical jokes, therefore a lot of his frineds adn co-workers didn't believe he was actually dying. They all thought the "cancer thing" was another one of his hoaxes. They didn't attend his funeral because they didn't believe him until it was too late. I've also read that a lot of the people at his funeral expected him to pop up out of the coffin at any time, then it never happened. THat moment is when it hit them that Andy was really gone.

This is really interesting info. I think we all want to know more about Andy and his relationships with the cast. Latka is such a sweet guy with those little boy eyes that just make you want to give him a hug, that I think we want to believe there's a part of Andy that is Latka. And maybe there was, but I'm not sure even Andy knew who he was.

So yeah, it would've been hard for the cast to even know if they'd get along with him. Although it is nice to know that Carol Kane attended his funeral. If an And that Jeff Conaway made up with him and came to like him. That's a lot.

I did not know Christopher was so shy! He's so good at being such a crazy guy, lol.

Chris Lloyd was VERY DIFFERENT from the eccentric, crazy roles he played. I saw a video of him as his true self and he is soft spoken, erudite and very intelligent.

I think most of the cast disliked Kaufman and supposedly Tony Danza hated him.
