Old Favorite: 'Barney Miller'

The television series Barney Miller, which ran from the mid-70's through the early-80's, was among one of my favorite shows to watch.

One of my favorite characters in the series was Detective Phil Fish, played by Abe Vigoda (via Wikipedia). Yesterday (Friday, January 23, 2009), he appeared on the NBC Today show.
