I loved CH much more than  ER in the beginning -- but it fizzled when M P 
left -- Geiger was the best character and then there was Shutt left, but 
well, Adam Arkin's lisp is just TOOO much to bear -- and I kept seeing his 
Lunatic character from Northern Exposure when he stepped in the room.

But come on, Mandy is schmaltz-city when he sings.  He sounds like a really 
good parody of a show-tunes singer, which basically, unintentionally, IS 
what he is.   I'm sorry, I can't change my position on this. The best song 
he ever sang on CH was Lehrer's "Poisoning Pidgeons in the Park."
