Bill Daily revealed in an interview above, that while he loved every minute of playing Howard Borden during the show's run, it left him typecasted for over 12 years. He said it was "Beyond typecasting." It made him reluctant to reprise that role in any reunion shows.

If that was the case 20 years ago, okay. But I've never heard Bill complain about this phenomenon (typecasting), in the 4 years that he did the radio show, nor when I've spoken to him in person.
