Ronnie Schell, Slater on 'Gomer Pyle USMC', 94

He was also the voice of Jason on Battle of the Planets.
 
He also starred in a mid-60s sitcom (Good Morning, World) about a pair of LA morning drive-time DJs. His girl friend was played by Goldie Hawn, his boss was the talented Billy De Wolfe. The man played the part of a fastidious pr!@k with gusto. Didn't last a full season.

Ronnie left Gomer Pyle to to be the star of his own show -- a radio-themed show -- which tanked in the ratings...

A decade later, McLean Stevenson left M*A*S*H to be the star of his own show -- a radio-themed show -- which tanked in the ratings...
 
I remember him appearing on Jim's variety show where he fell down the stairs a lot.

He came back to Gomer's show as a corporal and then he got in over his head when he was put in charge.
