Notes

Wilder went to the NY League for the Hard of Hearing to study for his role where pathologist Karen Webb had a job and then became his fourth wife.

Of the two lead characters, one is deaf (Wilder) and one is blind (Pryor), they still can both speak, whereby a third lead character would have been arguably mute (like Harpo Marx), something possible, but arguably less accessible to audiences when there is a character who cannot speak.
