Clearly, you don't watch ER or you'd know that Rocket Romano was the
show's Frank Burns until the helicopter fell on him and after that,
Archie Morris became the show's Frank Burns, except that Morris,
unlike Burns, became a (marginally) competent doctor and comic relief
rather than comic antagonist. So, basically, Morris started out as
ER's Frank Burns and turned into the show's Klinger (with a dash of
Col. Flagg.)

LORELAI: I am so done with plans. I am never, ever making one again.
It never works. I spend the day obsessing over why it didn't work
and what I could've done differently. I'm analyzing all my shortcomings
when all I really need to be doing is vowing to never, ever make a plan
ever again, which I'm doing now, having once again been the innocent
victim of my own stupid plans. God, I need some coffee.
