Why he might be annoying:

    He acted in a porno movie ('Linda Lovelace for President').
    He owned a bunch of cats.
    He was typecast as fastidious nebbishes.
    His forty-plus year career in movies and television is eclipsed by his eight-year stint as a Smurf.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He fostered shelter dogs.
    He worked as a television commercial casting agent for thirty years.
    He had a memorable role in 'Young Frankenstein' as an inquisitive medical student - which encompassed all of two minutes' screen time.
    He was a good sport and reprised his work as Brainy Smurf to do a parody on Robot Chicken.
    The show's creators named him as being among their favorite guest stars.
    He was thrilled when he was told by John Marley that he had been replaced in a Baltimore production (he went by the saying that you're only a good actor if you've been fired at least once).
