Trivia[]
Although creators Stephen J. Cannel and Frank Lupo had Benedict in mind for the role, studio executives initially insisted that the role be handled differently: Tim Dunigan played the role in the pilot episode, but after it was completed, he was thought by the same executives to look too young to be believable Vietnam veteran, [6] and he was, at 6'5" (198 cm) much taller than the rest of the cast particularly the show's 5'10" (178 cm) muscleman Mr. T. He was replaced by Dirk Benedict for the series.
Face springs Murdock from the Looney bin every time; surprisingly never getting caught despite his repeat appearances with different excuses.
He's a fan of silent film star Elvira.
Face can scam almost anything for the team; likely having acting lessons from Hannibal.
He spends his free time in luxury thanks to his scams.
Face often drugs B.A. so he can be put on planes.
A running gag is that Faceman succedes with his con games; on one epsiode when in fact he was atually lossing he breaks the 4th wall and remarks "I must be losing my touch"! the result is that its H.M.Murdock instead of Faceman who on the TV Show "Wheel of Fortune" wins a truck; a vacaction trip to HAwaii and a date with a beautiful girl!
In the teaser of FAceman in the beginning of each epsiode does a double take on seeing an actor dressed as robot Cylons this is an injoke Dirk Benedict wasf Lieutenant Starbuck in the original Battlestar Galactica TV series
