1)Alan Brady 2)The author in the episode "I'm no Henry Walden",or Willie the friend of Stacey Petrie in the episode "Stacey Petrie-Pt.1&2"?Which character was your favorite?Alan Brady was okay-nice at the beginning,but sorta overbearing towards the end.I'd have to say #2 or #3.

Oops!I stand corrected.He played FOUR characters,not 3.He was ALSO the artist in the episode "October Eve".I also liked that character,too.

i would definitely say Serge Carpetna from "October Eve"! I wish they would have brought back that character for another episode or two.

I liked all of them, but I also liked it when you just heard his voice singing the "hit song" from the musical "The Solid White Zebra" in the episode "Love Thy Other Neighbor".

....Carl did in "It May Look Like A Walnut!" (including the "Twiloite victim" in the movie that scares Laura out of her wits at the beginning)- but my favorite line is the one he did while Rob & Laura are switching channels at the end..."Would you believe there are 200,000 bumblebees on this man's face?"
