    He replaced other actors in both ‘Night Court’ and ‘Love & War.’
    He was married three times, divorced twice.
    He appeared in ads for Nextel and Old Spice.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He got his show-biz start as a singer in Archie Bell and the Drells.
    A 'Night Court' episode in which Mac became an underwear model showed he was pretty buff under his usual sweater vests.
    He was a member of the Actors Studio for over thirty years.
    He won the Ovation Award (the Los Angeles stage’s equivalent to a Tony) as Best Actor for his performance in August Wilson’s ‘Fences.’ (2006)
