Time flies!
William Daniels noted.
Spend it with the ones you love. Thank you for all the birthday wishes, they make me feel so young!
Will Friedle, Rider Strong, and Danielle Fishel talked about working with William Daniels back in June. Rider drew a picture of their time on set at the time.
When we were kids, goofing off and having a good time, he was very much a Feeny-like presence,
Rider told People.
Even when the cameras weren’t there, in terms of knowing his lines, being a complete professional, being on time. Those were things that we needed to see, and had to learn to emulate in order to be professionals in the industry.
A few years later, Will said that William Daniels is now 95 years old, but he still says things that are very wise.
