Like many another "underachiever," Stiers excelled at the things he was truly interested in, such as music (he played piano and french horn) and acting.
After flunking out of the University of Oregon, Stiers stepped up his amateur-theatrical activities, and at age 20 was hired by the California Shakespeare Festival at Santa Clara, where he spent the next seven years performing the Classics.
Stiers' performance as a stuttering TV executive in a 1976 Mary Tyler Moore Show episode led to his being cast as the overbearing Major Charles Emerson Winchester on the ever-popular M*A*S*H; at first signed to a two-year contract, Stiers remained with the series until its final episode in February of 1983.

 IGN: Interview with David Ogden Stiers
STIERS: What attracted me to the part was the closest thing to an Old Hollywood meeting that I've experienced in, I would say, nearly two decades, sitting with Michael and Shawn Piller and Lloyd Segan in their offices in L.A. chatting about the role.
STIERS: It's very frustrating, because you do give your best, but especially in television you go in with this operating system that it is a crapshoot and that things you don't know about will affect the outcome.
STIERS: I actually expressed the doubt the other day that the expense of putting it on a DVD would be met and exceeded by the business of the DVD.

 Autumn Canticle
This time we're in 1972, in the Hudson River Valley mansion shared by baritone David Williams (William M. Whitehead) and composer Peter Billings (William McCauley), who had fallen in love on the first day of their first class together at Curtis 30 years before, and have been concertizing together and living together ever since.
Williams is a portly, pompous, overrefined (and overwritten) windbag, played at one pitch by Whitehead, even when we're supposed to see the real feelings beneath the character's bluster.
McCauley is much simpler and sweeter and sympathetic as the ailing and reserved Billings in the first two acts; but when he's in his cups in the third act, betrayed and angry, he becomes as bitchy and as shallow as Whitehead's Williams.

 Metroactive Stage | Amateur Night at the Big Heart
In depicting a slice of everyday life at a Colorado honkytonk threatened by a chain disco moving into town, Terry Dodd's Amateur Night at the Big Heart demonstrates the value of the local institutions, which could be lost if only chains prevail.
Just the week before we first see it, the Big Heart Bar and Grill was the place in Pueblo, Colorado, to meet "buckle bunnies," drink a cold Bud and dance to Patsy Cline on Saturday night.
It's much more effective--and the play is at its best--when these characters reveal their quirks, hangups and histories in interactions with each other.

Allen's new picture, "The Curse of the Jade Scorpion," is nothing but plot and production values, and there's barely a laugh in it that isn't quashed.
The problem isn't that the story -- an ace insurance investigator (Allen) becomes hypnotized by a nefarious magician (David Ogden Stiers) and becomes a jewel thief doing his master's bidding -- is silly.
At one time, back in the days of "Take the Money and Run" or "Sleeper," he understood how to use a premise as an excuse for gags.
