always thought he had an interesting body of work..both in films and TvMona wrote:The "Dream On" BS Elliot episode is, I think, one of Pat's all-time best shows. Many folks think of Pat as just a mediocre actor, but it's not true! He is a great actor and it's too bad he didn't get really super good shows to illustrate his talent. Mind you, he is ALWAYS enjoyable, even if he is being eaten by the monster in "Naked Space" (which is a very funny movie and Pat is the best in it). However, he is utterly stupendous in "Dream On." He is also excellent in "Jack's Place", whereby he plays an aged butler looking for a new position as butlering is all he knows; that is very sentimental and sad. Also, he does great in Ray Bradbury's "House of Usher" half hour show, too.
Thank G-d for Ebay, where throughout some years I wound up buying pretty much every single TV show and movie Pat ever starred in. Just had all my old VCR tapes changed into DVDs.

Yeah, Ebay has been a good resource in finding hard-to-find-items.
