Is he only famous for being Tessio? That's crazy because Tessio hardly did or said shit in those movies.
RIP

He was almost certainly more famous for being in Barney Miller. But the fact that he was in Barney Miller made his role as Tessio more iconic.

He was 53-55 when he shot Barney Miller, but he looked a lot older. Just look at that picture. Men in their 50's nowadays look like they're in their 40's.

It's funny because you always think that he died before. Long life. R.I.P. I saw some old movie and he had a bit part as a cop, this was when he was young.

Coppola discovered him in an open casting call. He never did a movie before Godfather.

He acted since the late 1940's. He just didn't make a whole lot of movies/tv appearances.

Coppola might have it wrong on the commentary track then. I knew he did theater previously.

First time I saw the Godfather, I was like, 'hey that's Fish!'

You know I got rhymes like Abe Vigoda..."

Yeah, But compared to the Kevin Coster, Bruce Willis, and Kurt Russell this year. He really looked like a grandpa.
Just watched an episode of tales from the darkside.

Bruce Willis with a beard looks like a grandpa. Without one he looks like he's in his mid to late 40s.
