I liked him in Everybody loves Raymond. Frank was my fav character. I need to buy that on DVD too.
Stupid list keeps getting bigger and bigger.

They have an unfortunate tendency to do that For my money his greatest ever appearance (although I admittedly have not seen them all) is in the X-files episode Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose. If you haven't seen it, he plays a grumpy old man (astonishingly!) who is psychic, but can only see the way that people are going to die. And not because he's really psychic but because the chain of coincidences leading up to the death of Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper left him obsessed with the web of cause and effect and the outcomes of random events. It contains the charming exchange: Peter Boyle: "You know, there are a lot of way to go, but I can't think of a more embarrasing one than that autoerotic asphyxiation" David Duchovny: "Why are you telling me this?" Peter Boyle: "No reason." Now THAT's comedy

I usually try to avoid stuff with aliens, I usually end up with nightmares but I have heard good things about his appareance in X-Files. Didn't he get an award for that role?
I guess Molder will die happy though.

He did in fact win his only Emmy for his appearance in that episode

I'm trying to suppress an image of Mitch Pileggi,Gillian Anderson et al standing over a body on a covered gurney.
"He was hung."
"Never mind that. What caused the pettichiae in the schlera and the abrasions to the baroceptors?"

She's got this brilliant engineering mind and she has to steal Py's pie.
So sad....
Maybe it has something to do with Py 's menfriends appreciating his brains as much as his looks?
