Nitpicking because I watch it: The “certain character” actually returned 
earlier this season. If the episode description can be believed, Tuesday night 
will wrap up the arc, IIRC. 

More to the point, I broadly agree with all of this. They were good stories 
about legendary people. (I chuckled at his referring to Irwin Allen as a 
screamer; that’s certainly consistent with Jonathan Harris’s telling of how he 
was a “special guest star” for the entire run of Lost in Space.) Harmon can 
indeed be an engaging guest when he wants to. 

Harmon used to make his annual appearance on Letterman at the beginning of the 
new season. Hearing that he and Colbert has not met made me realize that he has 
not been on since. (And this seems like an odd time, honestly, since NCIS has 
been a mix of new and repeat shows. Why not wait until the next sweeps period?) 
 Perhaps someone thought it was best for him to lay low until the backstage 
drama at NCIS was further in the past. Although ISTR that he was on with 
British Jimmy, which is much easier for him from a logistical standpoint. 

I miss the days when talk shows would book some engaging personalities simply 
because they were so entertaining, and because they had something to plug. Now 
get off my lawn...
