Don Knotts
Don Knotts is best known for playing Barney Fife on The Andy Griffith Show, but he later landed another really popular role. He was cast as Ralph Furley, the hapless (yet absolutely lovable) landlord on Three’s Company, which also starred John Ritter. Don also made appearances and cameos on a lot of television shows and films.
