Gotta give it up to 102. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnRogers Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 For real this time? I think he played a small part in the best and original Battlestar Galactica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dream & vapour Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Nehemiah's finest performance undoubtedly is found in the Gilligan's Island episode The Little Dictator. During a dream sequence in which Gilligan finds himself a Latin American dictator, Nehemiah's character prompts Gilligan to pronounce to the throngs below, "I promise you dis, dat and dee oter ting!" The distilled essence of what every citizen yearns to hear from a politician. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
