Dabney Coleman, the mustachioed character actor who specialized in smarmy villains like the chauvinist boss in '9 to 5' and the nasty TV director in 'Tootsie,' has died. He was 92. Coleman died Thursday, his daughter, Quincy Coleman, told The Hollywood Reporter. No other details were immediately available. “The great Dabney Coleman literally created, or defined, really — in a uniquely singular way — an archetype as a character actor.
Although some became cult favorites, only one lasted longer than two seasons, and some critics questioned whether a series starring a lead character with absolutely no redeeming qualities could attract a mass audience. 'Buffalo Bill' was a good example. It starred Coleman as 'Buffalo Bill' Bittinger, the smarmy, arrogant, dimwitted daytime talk show host who, unhappy at being relegated to the small-time market of Buffalo, New York, takes it out on everyone around him.
