Watching Season 4 I noticed that the series featured one of the stars every other episode. Until recently.
Now I know John Smith died from cirrhosis of the liver which we usually associate with alcoholism. My question is: Was he featured less because he had a drinking problem?
Or, did he have other things going on?
He was depressed because he had the blandest name in show business.
shareHe changed his name to John Smith so he would be "the only one in the business," and he and Robert Fuller were split up in many episodes so they could film twice as many, one starring each, a real shame as they got along great and the episodes with them both were much better.
shareHis real name was John Holmes aka Johnny wadd aka John Smith
