In Los Angeles, Kopell initially drove a taxi and tried to sell Kirby vacuum cleaners to make ends meet before being cast in a minor role in The Brighter Day, a daytime soap aired on CBS. From there, he moved on to star in My Favorite Martian and The Jack Benny Program impersonating Latino characters, eventually managing to branch out and do other accents.

During the 1960s and early 1970s, Kopell appeared in many television series, often sitcoms, including Ripcord, That Girl, The Jack Benny Program, Our Man Higgins, Green Acres, Ben Casey, The Flying Nun, Needles And Pins, McHale’s Navy, Lancelot Link-Secret Chimp, Petticoat Junction, The Streets of San Francisco, Room 222, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, Bewitched, and Kojak.

However, Kopell’s longest-running role was as Dr. Adam Bricker on The Love Boat, an Aaron Spelling production. He remained on the series during its entire run, appearing in 250 episodes.

Siegfried and other roles

Kopell made memorable recurring appearances as KAOS agent Siegfried in Get Smart, Alan-a-Dale in When Things Were Rotten, Jerry Bauman in That Girl, and Louie Pallucci in The Doris Day Show. He played several characters on Bewitched, including the witches’ apothecary and the hippie warlock Alonzo in the episode “The Warlock in the Gray Flannel Suit”. He played Charlie Miller as a member of the cast of the situation comedy Needles and Pins, which ran for 14 episodes in the autumn of 1973. He portrayed a plastic surgeon who gave Ed Brown a facelift on Chico and the Man. Earlier in his career, he played a director in an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents (“Good-Bye George”). About this same time, he guest-starred on the short-lived The New Phil Silvers Show.

Doc on The Love Boat and other roles

Kopell’s role as Doc on The Love Boat was parodied in a humorous appearance on Late Show with David Letterman in 1995. Two entries in that night’s Top Ten List poked fun at The Love Boat, and at the Doc character specifically.

The camera cut to Kopell, who was sitting in the audience, and he stormed out of the theater. A few moments later, he was shown having been re-seated in the mezzanine when the second parody was made at his expense, and again stood up, raised his fists, and stormed out, playing along with the host.

In a dream sequence of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Kopell made a parody cameo as an actor who played a ship’s doctor so many times he offers to perform an operation for real, while in a 1994 episode of Saturday Night Live he appeared as Doc during a Love Boat-themed spoof of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

In the 1990s, Kopell traded on his Doc Bricker persona when he appeared in a commercial for an anti-snoring product named D-Snore, in which he noted that loud snoring “can even ruin a romantic cruise.”

After The Love Boat, Kopell was so recognizable that he was not in roles often without a nod to his most famous role. He appears as a coroner in “Which Prue Is It Anyway”, an episode of Charmed.

Kopell appears in the Monk episode “Mr. Monk and the Critic”, playing Mr. Gilson, the ill-fated restroom attendant, whom Monk referred to as the Michelangelo of lavatories. He guest-starred in “Pinky”, a 2009 episode of My Name Is Earl.

He made a cameo as a patient in the Scrubs episode “My Friend the Doctor”, as well as an episode of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody.
