Notice here. The dad from The Patty Duke Show is my strongest memory of him. In my opinion he was the best of the television fathers of that era.
I just checked IMDB, and (slight exaggeration)it might be easier to list the shows he hasn’t appeared on(/se).
Oh man! What a television fixture. And was in tons of stuff. But he’ll be most remembered as Patty Duke’s dad, and she just moved on herself. Good night Bill, you earned a long rest.
wow the last time I seen him was in that nbc mess “the torklesons” (that got rebooted 3 times heh)
I mostly remember him from Twilight Zone: The Movie. “Ahh, the beach. I used to love the beach.”
Yep, he was in almost everything. Yet by name I’ll bet almost nobody knew who he was. Until you showed them his pic.
Funny thing. We happened to turn to a B-movie science fiction film over the weekend, and I told my wife the only actor whose name I recognized was William Schallert.
The man was a TV fixture for ages.
Nilz Baris will have no more troubles with tribbles.
I used to call him “the hardest working man in television”. His imdb entry may not be the longest, but it sure has got to be in the top 5.
I liked him in The Wild Wild West, though I was surprised to see it was only one episode as Artie’s replacement Frank Harper. Seemed like more.
He was the teacher every kid would have wanted to have on The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, where I first saw him.
I agree. Professor Pomfritt was cool, daddy-o. 
That’s Pomeroy. Loved him as the dentist in “Mant”. OK, not really a movie there, but a self-deprecating role in “Matinee”.
Wow*!* He was so ubiquitous I had no idea if he was still alive or not, he was always just, there. And not only was he incredibly prolific with a distinctive voice & appearance, the guy was like Dick Clark in that he never seemed to age*!* (though he did seem to finally retire 5-10 years ago).
As a kid I best remember him in one of his very rare roles as, well, not an actual villain but as an annoying and disagreeable bureaucrat in the famous The Trouble with Tribbles episode of the original Star Trek…
My favorite Star Trek moment is when Baris says to Kirk and Spock, “I wouldn’t expect you or your science officer to know about it, but quadrotriticale–”
Spock (interrupting): Quadrotriticale is a… (proceeds to describe it in detail, finishing with) …the root grain, triticale, can trace its ancestry back to 20th century Canada, where… (Kirk interrupts here.)
Ha! Take that, Baris!
RIP, the actor.
He really was a good actor. I’m glad he lived so long. I’ll miss him, but it’s hard to be sad that he lived to be 93, and worked almost until the very end.
It’s a little sad that he out-lived Patty Duke.
Nancy Drew’s father died? 
Thats the role I associate with Schallert. He was a great character actor with a long resume. He was in the Tribbles episode of Star Trek.
RIP
Leander Pomfritt and Imogene Burkhart taught just about every class at Central High School and S. Peter Pryor College…and were badly underpaid for having to deal with Dobie and Maynard.
Just when he is old enough to play Admiral Hardgrade, he goes and dies.

Almost my first thought. I’d forgotten he appeared on DS9, too: William Schallert | Memory Alpha | Fandom
Rest in peace, Mr. Schallert.
Also the doctor in “The Incredible Shrinking Man”.
Intellectually I know that no one lives forever, but this cat had me wondering. Long live Norman Lloyd.
