The cast of "Barney Miller" stepped out of character on a retrospective episode that aired in May of 1979 to offer a tribute to Jack, who had died a few months earlier during the show's fifth season. The episode recalled some of his best moments on the show. In the late 40s he first met "Barney Miller" creator Danny Arnold while sharing the nightclub stages in the mid-West early in their show business careers. Was interned in a camp for Japanese-Americans in Utah during WWII. His last words to Hal Linden as he was being wheeled into the operating room before his death were "It must have been the coffee". This was a reference to the running gag of his character Nick Yemana from Barney Miller having the reputation for making horrible coffee. Cast as the show M.C. and comedian Frankie Wing ("Gliding through my memoree") in the 1958 Broadway cast, and Larry Blyden was Sammie Fong. Jack moved up to the Sammie Fong role for the 1961 film.
