David Rasche

David Rasche

Highest Rated: 100% Paper Spiders (2021)

Lowest Rated: 0% Teddy Bears' Picnic (2002)

Birthday: Aug 7, 1944

Birthplace: St. Louis, Missouri, USA

A tall, blond, ruggedly handsome actor of stage, film and TV, David Rasche may be best remembered by sitcom cultists as the dim-witted but gung ho hero cop of "Sledge Hammer!" (ABC, 1986-88), a likably broad parody of Clint Eastwood's "Dirty Harry," and as Jack Trenton, the crooked financier doing court-ordered hospital community service, from 1992-94 on the NBC's "Nurses."
