Borgnine is always good and Joe Flynn always did frustrated/angry very well. I enjoyed the magic of Carl Ballintine here and in other venues, and feel Gavin MacLeod has always done a fine job with what ever material he is given. Then there's Tim Conway. I thought he was brilliant with Carol Burnett, but in McHale's Navy he is tedious. He is constantly over-hyper and painful to watch. His performance is painfully predictable because you know he will do something stupid in ever scene and it will always be painfully obvious. A fire hose and Conway - a laugh riot ensures as Conway loses control (didn't see that coming). Watch out, Conway's on a ladder holding a can of paint and Joe Flynn is walking by - wow, Flynn is covered in paint (didn't see that coming). And it goes on and on like this for 138 episodes. Everybody likes to see the clowns come out at the circus when they're changing acts - 1 minutes of expected clown routines and then 30 minutes of entertainment. Unfortunately, McHale's Navy got it reversed.
