Stars:   Chevy Chase, Hal Holbrook, Julianne Phillips, R. Lee Ermey  and many other fine actors.    A bit of movie trivia. 01:  In the scene when Fletch hides in the morgue's refrigerator from Ben Dover (Randall "Tex" Cobb), the chalkboard in the background has names for the other corpses in storage. Names include those of Wally Cox, Carol Wayne, Allen Ludden, and Paul Lynde, all of whom made appearances on The Hollywood Squares (1965). Most likely, this was done because of the 3 x 3 grid of the refrigeration units.  02:  Fletch's complete list of disguises and aliases is: Peggy-Lee Zorba, Nostradamus, The Colonel, Geometry Fletch, Billy-Jean King, Claude-Henry Smmoot, Peter Lemonjello, Ed Harley, Elmer-Fudd Gantry, Henry Himmler, Eldridge Cleaver, Victor Hugo, and Bobby-Lee Schwartz II.  03:  Real-life televangelist Peter Popoff was the inspiration for Jimmy Lee Farnsworth (R. Lee Ermey) as well as Jonas Nightingale (Steve Martin) in Leap of Faith (1992).
