That's one more time than Captain Tuttle was ever seen!
On the original incarnation of "Around The Horn" on ESPN (with Max Kellerman), Disembodied Voice was never seen.

ADAM-12 and EMERGENCY! were both Jack Webb productions and it is fairly well known by TV trivia buffs that Webb was a stickler for reality, so yes the dispatchers on ADAM-12 and EMERGENCY! were in fact real, the dispatcher on ADAM-12 was Shaaron Claridge, here is her IMDB entry http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0163576/ the dispatcher on EMERGENCY! was Sam Lanier, here is his IMDB entry http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0486836/ As far as the dispatcher on CHIPs is concerned, I don't believe she was a real dispatcher, but an actress playing the part.

I am shocked that no one has mention:
The radio announcer from "Gilligan's Island."
The radio announcer from "Gilligan's Island."
Seldom seen on Three's Company after about 1980: Suzanne Somers. I believe this was due to her husband's outrageous salary demands for her, back about that time, that the producers of the show either could not, or would not meet, so they limited her time on the show to just a cameo appearance at the very end, in which Jack and/or Janet would talk to Chrissy by phone from wherever she happened to be at the time. And of course, Suzanne was eventually written out of the show entirely.
Also, does anyone remember the '70s House reality show that aired on MTV a few years back? They had a "heard, but never seen" guy, patterned after Charlie on Charlie's Angels, who gave them their marching orders, but whom they never met. On the last episode, they were promised a meeting with him, but actually only got a fleeting shot of him as he left in a limousine!

This may have been mentioned - Carlton the Doorman on Rhoda. Voiced by Lorenzo Music, who was an entertainment industry jack of all trades. He was the creator of the Bob Newhart Show, and wrote scripts as well as the theme music. He was one of the of producers on Rhoda, if I remember correctly; and did a lot of commercial voiceover work. Music was also the voice of the animated Garfield, and later hosted a decent but short lived talk/variety show with his wife Henrietta.
Sadly, he died rather young (64) of cancer.
Pickles was on the show at least once...Just ask Floyd B. Barrascale!
I know this is going to be considered nitpicking but does kitt really count for this. We saw KITT hundreds of times on knight rider "he" was one of the central characters in the show after all, and besides if we see the person who does the voice of KITT, it totally blows the concept doesn't it?1069_KIFR said:
