You should read Jack Cassidy's bio on IMDB and about his divorce from Shirley Jones. He was a strange character in real life. Bipolar I think he was. Suffered from schizophrenia, depression, etc. Did some weird things. Died in a fire when he fell asleep and his couch caught fire from a lit cigarette. He was only 49.

It's a wonder Cassidy was able to function for as long as he did. I admire him greatly as a performer. He also had a fine singing voice.
