I was watching an old episode of The Partridge Family the other night and saw Vic Tayback in it. It was the episode when Danny was helping some Vegas showgirl pick stocks and her boyfriend mobster (Pat Harrington of One Day At A Time if you wanna play six degrees (or less) of DLR) had his thugs (Vic Tayback & character actor Dick Bakalyan) scare Danny into not seeing her anymore, unaware that Danny was only 10.
Made me wonder if Partridge manager Reuben Kincaid (Dave Madden) was still alive... turns out he is, living in semi-retirement in Florida. Madden & Bonaduce had some great chemistry on the show.
Looking back, The Partridge Family show had a really amazing list of guest stars... Richard Pryor, Johnny Cash, Jodie Foster, Uncle Fester, the Scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz, Jackie Earle Haley, Rob Reiner... I could go on and on...
