He was very good in the American comedy "Mchales Navy"
McHale's Navy is an American sitcom which ran for 138 half-hour episodes from October 11, 1962, to August 31, 1966, on the ABC network. The series was filmed in black and white and originated in a one-hour drama called Seven Against the Sea, broadcast on April 3, 1962. Universal commissioned the colorization of the series in the late 1980s for syndication in hopes of reviving its popularity. Those episodes are available on Hulu.
I remember the name, but I think I am probably confusing it with Gilligans Island because I thought it was a comedy.
