Clearly this wont be a very memorable role for Nimoy. BUT IMO it really showed his diversity as an actor. I really feel, and I think its safe to say Nimoy would have too, he got type cast from trek. One of those careful what you wish for. The role of spock became larger than life and he could never shake it for other gratifying work. Poor guy...
No surprise the man developed a love hate relationship for trek. Later on he seemed to come to peace and like the reality of it. He always seemed to be a pretty positive and interesting guy.
This one role on Becker really showed his grip on acting a more conventional and humorous role. I cant help but wonder what he may have grew into as an actor had he got more roles and honed his craft. We'll never know...
Well worth a watch for any Nimoy fan and fan of awkward, Seinfeld like comedy.
and the shrink in Invasion of the Body Snatchers - still Spock was my favorite character in Star Trek.

Every time there was some Future Celebrity, they were always the Bad Guy.
Robert Redford, Dick Clark (!) and Leonard, for example.
Colombo also.
He made an appearance on Big Bang as tiny Spock
