The ABC show, which also starred Dick Van Patten, Lani O’Grady, Connie Needham and more, ran from 1977 to 1981.
“I think he’s why the show was a big success,” Van Patten said of his former co-star in a 2011 interview with Stephen J. Abramson for the Television Academy Foundation. “People loved him! [Fans] named a child Nicholas and everything because of him.”
He added, “He was cute, and he was a good actor. He was very natural.”
