Jack Soo was in interned in Utah when the Japanese were in the internment camps in WWII, and he got out by joining the army and fighting in Italy. Jack Soo happened to be a very funny person and interesting person too. It was written, we were good actors executing a good spread. We didn’t come up with those funny lines, I promise you. Were there any moments on the set in the show where something just went awry, and you had to roll with it? There were some episodes where Jack Soo would perform, and you could see the actors behind him laughing. They were great lattes and all of that, but we had to act like it was bad. Was it actually coffee and was it actually that bad? In many ways, they would set up where Wojo would be to get whatever the heart part of it was. And so, I think that that was where I found myself taking Wojo and then the writers reflecting that.
Max Gail: Because we do live in a very logic-oriented era, we live in a kind of a left-brain world where our hearts and our sense of wholeness and connectedness to each other and all of life is sometimes treated like something to keep the wraps on. You’ve got to have good comic timing to be a straight man. To have that stability that you could compare so that everybody who was supposed to be unstable when look unstable. Here are some highlights of what they had to say about it in their panel! Barney was the logical core and Wojo was the emotional core. Crowds gathered at Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention anytime Barney Millerstars Hal Linden or Max Gail came around, which is quite a testament to the love fans had (and still have) for this long-running 1970s cop show.
