I was a huge fan of that show. I still use Wojehowicz (sp?) line of "spelled just like it sounds" when I encounter some name that is impossible to pronounce/spell.
The first time I ever saw any part of the Godfather was when I was flipping around and came across Abe Vigoda and knew him from Barney Miller and started watching. I even remember that it was the funeral scene when he tells Michael that Barzini wants to set up a meeting. Boy was I annoyed that it was the end of the movie. Didn't take long before I found out what movie it was and then saw the whole thing.
(p.s. -- isn't it weird how memories work? I'd completely forgotten all of that about the Godfather, and then Steve Landesberg dies, and I start thinking of Barney Miller and its cast and ......)
