Sherwood Schwartz, the man behind two of TV comedy’s greatest classics, “Gilligan’s Island” and “The Brady Brunch,” he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Friday.

I don’t wish to take anything away from Sherwood and applaud the decision by the committee for choosing and giving him a place on the Boulevard, but how can someone like Sherwood be considered while our good friend Walter Koenig still has no star?

If there is anyone who deserves to be commemorated for over four decades of entertainment it is Walter Koenig. This becomes even more important when one considers the fact that he is the only remaining original main cast member of the legendary Star Trek series and motion pictures to be without a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Time is quickly closing in on June 2008, which will be the last chance that Walter has to get immortalized on that famous walkway.

Let them know that Walter deserves this honor just as, if not more, than anyone else under consideration at this time.
