(53,448 posts)The first one you know about.
The second was the episode "There is Nothing Like a Nurse." The unit got word that there was going to be a North Korean air raid, so they evacuated all the nurses. The air raid turned out to be Five o'Clock Charlie dropping propaganda leaflets.
Wiz Imp
(10,557 posts)However, he did appear in 3 separate episodes.
In season 3, Chuckles had a brief non-speaking role in the third season episode, titled "Who's in Charge Here?", where he was portrayed by an uncredited extra. In this episode, Chuckles meets with Lou Grant, who has been temporarily promoted to WJM's program manager. Chuckles is seen arriving for the meeting in full clown makeup. Mark Gordon next played Chuckles in "Son of 'But, Seriously Folks'"; aside from these appearances, Chuckles, like Phyllis Lindstrom's husband Lars, existed only off-stage.
He was referred to numerous other times but not seen.

(751 posts)Now that I think about it, it may have been two episodes. Played by the great Hans Conried.
