In season 1 of Mannix, Larry plays a down-on-his-luck fellow who's got a target on his back while trying to get his ship to come in, if ya will. Grace Lee Whitney (Star Trek) and Walter Brooke (ex-The Green Hornet) also guest star.
Edit, 3/30/21: The video has been deleted. In its place for now is a screen cap of Larry from the episode:
Larry's IMDB page confirms what we've suspected all along, that it was he, and not Ted Knight, who was the voice of the Joker on the Filmation Batman cartoon and The New Scooby-Doo Movies, and, as we know, went uncredited. Now, we have to wonder if Larry was nominated for an Emmy for his work in the above episode.....

The great Mr. Storch was underappreciated at Emmy time, the only nomination he has yet received is for F TROOP in 1967. I have to think if the Warner Brothers hadn't killed it he would have been nominated again in 1968, and likely would have had a good shot at winning.
Two other dramatic appearances of Storch's that I really liked:
Hunters are for Killing (1970) TV Movie with Burt Reynolds a couple of years before he really hit big
"The Jack is High" on a 1964 Kraft Suspense Theatre episode, with Edd Byrnes.
He also appeared on Kolchak: The Night Stalker. If that particular ep is still available come Halloween, I'll put it up.
I figured this might get your attention......
