It's funny that while still respected in the industry, Elliott Gould was such an A-list star back in the 70s. It didn't really continue on after that. I can't recall the last time he had a lead role after the 80s series E/R (which isn't the same as the 90s series ER, yet somehow George Clooney starred in both). He seemed to slip into character roles from there out. Now most people might only remember him from secondary roles in the Oceans 8, 11, 12, and 13 movies, or as Ross and Monica's dad on Friends, but little else.
