He could have been Gene Hackman instead of Gene Hackman. They worked together in Young Frankenstein.

If Hackman had not been rejected for the part of Mike Brady in The Brady Bunch (the show's producers didn't want an unknown actor for the role), he probably wouldn't have been available for the Popeye Doyle role. (As Mike Brady, however, he would've been a lot tougher on Jim Backus and Vincent Price for kidnapping the Brady kids).

I saw Robert Reed in a tv movie recently HAUNTS OF THE VERY RICH--he was really good in it as a fatalistic priest. I didn't recognize him at first. Then realized, holy #$%@! it's Mr Brady!
Those tv movies gave tv regulars some interesting alternatives. Ed Asner has a good part in that one too.
Milton Berle has a really good part in SEVEN IN DARKNESS about blind people stranded in an airplane crash.
As for Peter Boyle,
