- The behind the scenes TV stories you wouldn’t have known - from the people who were there.
Today I’m bringing you one of my favorite interviews from the vault.
Ron Glass was one of those great character actors who took his work seriously - but not himself. Best known for his role on Barney Miller as Detective Harris, Glass also had notable guest shots on shows like the New Twilight Zone and a breakout role on All In The Family. Later, he was a regular on the Joss Whedon cult hit, Firefly.
In today’s episode, we started out talking about Barney Miller and being about the work.
Like Roshomon - Ron had his own point of view about Danny Arnold.
Ron talks about the two Barney Miller pilots - and how he was brought in for the second one.
How Rod Perry going on the A-team left an opening for Ron Glass to come on Barney Miller.
the evolution of Harris.
We picked up the story of Harris’ shooting. Ron’s point of view on that episode.
You’re gonna want to hear his side of the story.
and he pays tribute to Danny Arnold
You’ll notice that at the beginning of the conversation, Ron seemed to giggle at everything I said. I wasn’t quite sure, at the time, what was going on with him. What he did tell me afterward was that he was a little annoyed, coming into the interview, because we had been running over on our schedule that day, and we started late. But he also told me that by the end of the interview, we had won him over and he had a great time.
So, stick with us. You’ll see an uncomfortable and awkward start- and how by the end I became friends with the late great Ron Glass.

My favorite is the episode with the hash brownies. Every spoken line and action was truly humorous.
RIP Ron Glass, I was so very shocked he passed away at only 71, he always looked in top shape for a man half his age.
He was a key part of the finest TV show in American history.
His role in barney miller was very refreshing
My mom loved Fish and especially Detective Harris because he was refined and gorgeous.
Love his laugh. What a beautiful man and extraordinary actor. R I.P. Mr. Glass.
Dude was a pro. Loved him in everything he did.
Ron Glass had such a great laugh!
It's hard to pick just one best episode with Ron Glass, but I think I liked the way he and Steve who played Arthur got along. So my best episode with Ron was after he moved in with Arthur and the next day he was describing the evening with Barney." He grows things" "wheat?" So funny, and so Ron and Arthur.
That was one gorgeous man. What a loss!😔
Loved this guy and the Harris character
Ron Glass - So Eloquent yet Defined
Ron is wonderful
I grew up watching this man on tv namely barney miller.ron has always been one handsome guy.
I loved Ron Glass.
Thanks for posting this. I was shocked Emmytvlegends never did an interview with him and the rest of the BM cast besides Hal. I think Ron was so talented but underutilized by the industry. He should've been used in big motion pictures after Barney Miller. The brotha had skills.
He was so full of life!
I am so Disappointed in directors and producers who never sought his expertise. 👋 He was truly one of a kind, that could never be reproduced!
Late to the party, but here goes.
That's a hearty Laugh Ron Glass , you gave me lots of laughs 💛🌎Rest in Peace
