He came to prominence in appearances on Sid Caesar's ''Your Show of Shows'' (a live sketch comedy television series appearing weekly in the United States, from 1950 to 1954). Morris appeared twice in 1957 in episodes of the short-lived NBC comedy/variety show ''The Polly Bergen Show''.
Although Morris was a classically trained Shakespearean actor, he is best remembered for playing the wily and over the top "mountain man" character Ernest T. Bass on ''The Andy Griffith Show''. Also, he played George, the TV mechanic in the episode: "Andy and Helen have their Day" on the Andy Griffith show. He had lampooned southern accents while in the army at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He starred in one of the more comical early hour-long ''Twilight Zone'' episodes, "I Dream of Genie". Other roles included that of Elmer Kelp in ''The Nutty Professor'', a movie studio clerk in the short film ''Star Spangled Salesman'', and an art appraiser in an episode of ''The Dick Van Dyke Show''. He also had appeared in several Broadway shows including the highly regarded 1960 revival of ''Finian's Rainbow'' as Og the leprechaun opposite Bobby Howes as Finian. He played the role of Schmidlap in ''Way... Way Out'' and appeared in the 1962 movie, ''Boys' Night Out'' starring Tony Randall, Kim Novak and James Garner.
