Maybe it's because he was described by the NYT as "the
actor audiences loved to hate."
Must have been because of the "9 to 5" role, I certainly
never hated him.
9 to 5 was a lousy movie.
Coleman absolutely played unsympathetic characters but he
was a terrific actor.
As this is a tv newsgroup, let's recall his two tv series,
Buffalo Bill and The Slap Maxwell story (which gave the
world Meaghan Gallager and her glorious long hair).

The first time Coleman pinged my radar was when he played
the con-man father of a child evangelist on "Mary Hartman,
Mary Hartman."
Good point. This was mentioned in the obits and I forgot to include it.
Another sleazy character, but as always, played to perfection.

Nyssa, who wonders whatever happened to the child actor
who played Jimmy Joe Jeeter on that show
