Why he might be annoying
He has looked like an old man his entire life.
He is best known as Detective Phil Fish from the TV series 'Barney Miller.'
He left Barney Miller for his own show entitled 'Fish.'
When 'Fish' was cancelled, he was typecast in movies as various Italian stereotypes.
A few years ago People magazine reported a false rumor that Abe Vigoda had died, many people believed it.
Why he might not be annoying
He makes regular appearances on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, and his appearances on the show usually poke fun at his type-cast career.
He was somewhat of a main character in 'The Godfather' and 'The Godfather Part II.'
