'Artie After Hours'! No idea why I had that episode title right there at the forefront my brain but there you go. It's great.

He seems like someone you'd happily and regularly invite to stay with you for several weeks at a time even though you know half of your furniture will be destroyed by the time he leaves/gets hauled off to the pokey.

On September 8, 1963, [Geraldine Page] married actor Rip Torn, who was six years her junior, in Pinal, Arizona. They had three children: a daughter, actress Angelica Page, and twin sons, Anthony "Tony" and Jonathan "Jon" Torn.
Beginning in the early 1980s, Page and Torn lived separately after he started dating actress Amy Wright; Torn had first met Wright in 1976 and began an affair shortly after. Page was aware of Torn and Wright's relationship, and appeared onstage opposite Wright in the 1977 Off-Broadway production of The Stronger, under Torn's direction. In 1983, Torn fathered a child with Wright. Upon the birth of the child, Page was questioned about her marriage by columnist Cindy Adams, to which she responded: "Of course Rip and I are still married. We've been married for years. We're staying married. What's the big fuss?" In spite of their separation, Page and Torn remained married until her death; her daughter described their relationship as still "close" up until Page died in 1987.

never saw the "Blind Ambition" miniseries, but imagine Rip letting loose with a non-network Nixon

I'd forgotten all about that. Not available on Amazon, but all five hours are on YouTube:

Image looks acceptable. I can move that over to the TV, so I'll definitely watch that.

The first embed doesn't work--you have to watch it on YouTube (which does work).

Never realized that Artie was never given a surname--he's just Artie or Arthur on IMDB and Wikipedia.

He played a character named Artie once before, too, in a somewhat less reputable project:

Torn’s absolute commitment to the role is not matched by Mailer’s, and the two-hander becomes a macho stand-off, ended by Torn when – to calm one of Mailer’s children who’s crying in fright – he says, “It was just a scene in your daddy’s Hollywood whorehouse movie.”

Watched Artie After Hours again at the weekend, and a bunch of other eps of Larry Sanders. That show was godhead.
Lol @ Hopper being sued by Torn for keeping up that stupid story.
Poll doesn't include several items. Definitely a few things to check out, not least to see how he constructed the Artie character.
