:crazy:

Has anybody noticed that even though Crazy harry played the triangle bell in the original opening and closing, he never actually played the triangle in any actual episodes, and he never appeared as part of the orchestra in any episodes that had the orchestra in a number? Crazy Harry wasn't in the closing number for the Phyllys Diller episode, and he wasn't among the musicians who threatened to quit over the theme song in the kaye ballard episode (and he also didn't appear in the orchestra for the special closing for that episode).

:crazy:

Hmmm... strange indeed. The only thing I know about Harry's presence in the orchestra was that it was intended to provide comic balance to his character, as usually he'd be blowing stuff up. :crazy:
