    My favorite is the episode with the hash brownies. Every spoken line and action was truly humorous.

    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.

    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.

    • @kendallrivers1119

      That was great but my favorite Harris centric episodes are Liquidation, The Movie parts 1 and 2 and The Harris Incident. Those were Ron Glass at his very best imo.

      Southern Oregon his laugh was so and part of him. If there were a name that tune (Laugh) .
      I would hear his personality and speaking voice. His mannerisms and acting are so invisible.
      The ol, don't let them see you act. He has a smoothness that didn't chaff me at all when he was laughing. I just remember the many Barney Miller shows that I had watched. The quirks were so endearing.

    Late to the party, but here goes.
    The running gag of the squad having to pull mugging detail as women.
    Everyone looked really, really bad as a woman, then came Harris turn and he would not shave his mustache until Barney ordered him to.
    When Ron finally dressed for the detail he really looked stunning and refined as a woman and everybodies jaw dropped.
    I also enjoyed his now politically incorrect euphemisms for Bellevue Hospital.
    Hash brownies, classic!

    You mention that Rod Perry was not on the second pilot because he left to be on "The A Team." That's impossible. "The A Team" ran from 1983 to 1987. You probably mean he left to be on "S.W.A.T." "S.W.A.T." ran from 1975 to 1976. He played Sergeant David 'Deacon' Kay.

    Favorite Harris episode is def the one discussed: Harris getting shot at by white cops while trying to make a bust. His performance was funny and meaningful. And interesting to hear how the ending came about b/c the way Wojo's character was written as really needing an explanation for "why can't we move past this" (not an exact quote) fed perfectly into a situation that can't be resolved in a sitcom. ======== AND THE WEED BROWNIES episode!!!! "Sharp as tac!"

    Instead of the odd couple reboot - they should have spun off Harris and Deitricht into their own show. Maybe Arthur became a P.I. and Ron became a writer who helped him with his cases then wrote about them...

    8:02 No shit! I vaguely recall the episode in reruns I think the show was before my time. Only saw a few episodes but that rings a bell. ANd one more where an inspector has a heart attack during a heat wave. I don't recall it being all that funny. However Harris did not really say anything in the end, and did not apologize for acting like he had a thorn in his ass, it was Wojo who talked about how he never thought of Harris as black just as a man and a partner. Something like that.

      Apologize for what? Being upset with being humiliated by racist cops and nearly shot? He was may be giving them the cold shoulder but it's not like he cursed them out or blamed them. This comment proves how relevant this episode is. People like you need to learn empathy and compassion for someone else's plight.

      I think his response was spot on. Harris was shot at by another, (white), officer who assumed & here he was with other white officers, trusting them to have his back.
      There absolutely had to be that pause in what they shared as a unit.
      In the end, though, they acnowledged it & while the squad didn't know what it felt to be Harris, they respected him & reminded him that they had his back.
      I love how Wojo put it - and how Barney explained to him that you could understand but you didn't actually know how it felt to be in someone else's shoes.
