Jerry Van Dyke (Born July 27, 1931; died January 5, 2018) was the lesser-known (and far less successful) younger brother of Dick Van Dyke.
Most of the TV shows that Jerry Van Dyke starred in were extremely short-lived, and one of them was even considered one of the worst sitcoms of all time. However, he did have a few successful roles, such as appearing alongside his brother in the latter's eponymous show, and as Luther Van Dam on "Coach." Despite all of this, he was still largely overshadowed by his brother. \
