The Great Douglas Marland

It makes perfect sense and THAT is one of the reasons GL failed after they let JVD go. There is no way in hell, no matter how much Davey, Ellie or Bloomie loves the Coopers, that Buzz can make people feel safe and at home as Ross did. Its interesting that he took over the role that was usually associate with a woman on that show (Bert and Mo) but he made he did it while preserving his masculinity and sense of authority...he was a total father figure who you did NOT one to piss off or have him give you that look of disapointment (that means you DINAH!)

I can't believe that Wheeler let him slip through her fingers while keeping JD, FD and while I love him, he aint no patriach, the Billy actor.
