It's much more fun to come in and do the other stuff. A) You don't have to work as hard, but B) the parts are much more interesting. I would much rather play the character roles I do than the leading guy. As long as you're able, you can keep working. Longevity is terrific.
He portrayed the same role in his first and second Broadway credits, which were the 1977 and the 1997 iterations of "Annie." His third Broadway credit was in a different "Annie" play, but this time it was the 1999 production of "Annie Get Your Gun," making his first three Broadway credits beginning with "Annie." His fourth production did not have anything to do with an "Annie" title, it was the 2012 production of "Nice Work If You Can Get It".

After McMillan & Wife (1971)'s fifth season, his contract expired and he thought the series would be canceled, so he accepted an offer from producer Leonard Stern to take the lead in Stern's series Holmes and Yo-Yo (1976). When McMillan & Wife (1971) returned in a scaled-down version as "McMillan" (also produced by Stern), Schuck's character returned to that series as well, appearing briefly in each episode (it was explained that the character, Sergeant Charles Enright, had received a promotion and a transfer away from the Commissioner's office, but still dropped in on his old boss).
