Dr. Strangelove is the granddaddy of all satirical movies. A great cast contributes to the story of a bomber crew being ordered to drop the bomb on the Russians. The order did not come from the President. It came from Jack D. Ripper, the commander of Burpelson Air Force Base, who exceeded his authority. He also seems to be overly concerned with bodily fluids, his essence, and fluoridation. Peter Sellers leads a great cast. He plays three roles: Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake; President Merkin Muffley; and, Dr. Strangelove. He is wonderful in each one. Troy Harkin and David Clink, the "Two Old Farts," are joined by Ira Nayman, whom Troy and David refer to as The Third Fart. Ira is the only guest who has appeared in all five season. Ira is the second guest to have appeared in five episodes, joining Bev Vincent as part of "The Farty Five" or a proud member of "The Fart-Timer's Club." When it comes to Dream Casting, and the Schrodinger's Cast, Ira Troy and David try to recast Peter Sellers, with the best possible alternative (Dream Cast) and an unusual, outside the box choice (Schrödinger's Cast).
