Gus
Don Knotts also featured in the 1976 film, Gus, where he plays an inspiring and serious coach, who is often seen screaming at players from the sidelines. The film was a success at the box office, released on home video in 1981.
Gus
There are two scenes that the movie is most remembered for: one to do with a hotel and another in a supermarket. This was a different role for Knotts, of a more serious nature where he really nails the great motivator character.
Dave the Barbarian
The last television role Knotts took was as a guest on the animated series “Dave the Barbarian” in 2004. Children loved the series at the time, with the show getting good ratings.
The Steve Allen Show
The show revolves around Dave the Barbarian (no surprises there!) and his friends and family, who go on kind of surreal Medieval-themed adventures. Again, Knotts absolutley nailed the job.
