I worked for Burt Reynolds, for a year. From 1987 to 1988. He got hit financially and couldn't afford my services. He seemed like a pretty good guy.

Smoking, drinking,carousing... FANTASTIC!!! I know his son Brian, and have physically held the Norton hat and the Oscar that he won for Harry and Tonto which was mentioned on the show. These are the men who were my role models and I am soooooo glad. These guys really knew how to have fun. It kind of makes me emotional when I see how much we've lost from those times

Watched this show every night growing up. Today's shows don't even compare in my opinion. Good times
