Answer
Garth Gimble was Martin Mull's first major television role. Mull portrayed Gimble, a dim-witted but lovable character, in the sitcom "Fernwood 2 Night" (1977-1980). The show, a parody of local access television, featured Mull and Fred Willard as the inept hosts of a late-night talk show. Mull's portrayal of Gimble showcased his comedic talents and helped establish him as a rising star in the entertainment industry.
