Yes! That's right...he was Cynthia Swann's husband in First Wive's Club. Remember he came to her funeral with some chick, right??

He also played Ally McBeal's dad several years ago. He's the older brother of David Naughton, who was in American Warewolf in London, but is best known for "I'm a Pepper, he's a Pepper..." (The old Dr. Pepper commercials.)
