Slow day at the celebrity mortuary for Rory.
Then again, George Segal did win Best Actor in the 1973 Kansas City Film Critics Circle Awards.

George Segal's Life in Photos
https://bestlifeonline.com/news-george-segal-photos/
After being drafted then discharged from the army, Segal returned to the States to study at Columbia University and then the acclaimed Actors Studio in New York City. In the early 1960s, he began his career in theater and eventually Hollywood, where he first starred in serious roles, but eventually grew to be known for his comedic chops. Just a few years after becoming a professional actor, in 1965, Segal won the Golden Globe for Most Promising Newcomer for his role in The New Interns. He also went on to win another Golden Globe for the film A Touch of Class and was nominated for an additional three Golden Globes throughout his six decades as an actor.
In the late-1960s, he starred in three iconic dramas adapted for TV: The Desperate Hours, The Death of a Salesman, and Of Mice and Men. He also appeared opposite legends like Barbra Streisand in The Owl and the Pussycat, Jane Fonda in Fun With Dick and Jane, and Elizabeth Taylor in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? That role is what earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor in 1967. Mike Nicholas, who directed Segal in the movie, once said, according to The New York Times, "I learned he’s not the tough guy he seems to be. What you get with George is masculinity and sensitivity, plus a brain. His conflicting quality—half rough and half gentle and the mind to control it—gives an element of surprise to whatever he does."
In the 1970s and 1980s, Segal regularly appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, sometimes as a guest host and other times playing the banjo, which he picked up as a young boy growing up in Great Neck, New York.
Segal had a career resurgence in sitcoms later in life, including in the 1990s with Just Shoot Me! and in the 2010s with The Goldbergs, which is still running after eight seasons. In 1998, he joked with The New York Times that he kept popping up in Hollywood over the years. "I’m like a cork in the water, aren't I? I keep bobbing up in all sorts of places, although I never know in advance where or when," said Segal.

i hated george segal. the only good movie he ever made was 'where's poppa?" and that was only because of ruth gordon and he was still shit in it. the movies with jane fonda and glenda jackson made me reconsider slitting my wrists. every time i watched a movie with him in a starring role i wondered who he was fucking who advanced his career. one thing is certain, he must have had a big dick.

Glenda Jackson became an MP and was actually in Tony Blair's government for a while. She was beautiful in her younger years.
