Or his appearances on The Wild, Wild West opposite Michael Dunn, a truly inspired case of casting.

And let's not forget The Longest Yard (Reynolds version) with the classic, "He broke my [expletive] nose."

His online bio said he appeared on Match Game, Tattletales, Celebrity week on Feud, Bullseye(which had celebs playing for charity during its second of two seasons in the early 80s), and Win Lose or Draw.

The Family Feud appearance was especially coincidental, since Richard Kiel's middle name was Dawson.
