Not him.
The film is In the Heat of the Night, the actor is Fred Stewart as Dr. Stuart, but I must confess I had to look him up in the cast list.

In Irving Wallace's The Seven Minutes from 1969, attorney Mike Barrett carries, fills, lights, and smokes an "English shell briar," also described as a "shell pipe." Wallace, I guess, was trying to tell us Barrett smoked a Dunhill without actually saying Barrett smoked a Dunhill.
The Twilight Zone episode "The Last Rites of Jeff Myrtlebank".
At his own funeral, Jeff climbs out of his coffin, leading the townsfolk to believe he has been possessed by Satan himself.
Here, a match seems to ignite itself, as he lights his bent billiard.

Kramer dons his Dr Van Nostrund personna in an attempt to access Elaine's medical file which she believes contains derogatory notes from previous appointments.
Looks like a billiard, maybe a Canadian:

Stan Smith (American Dad!) learning "How to Read With One Hand" (book title) so he can hold his pipe in the other. Hmmm...maybe he should check out another title: "How to Clench Your Pipe".
Dunno if it was already mentioned but someone was smoking a Falcon in the bar scene from Rebel Moon pt1. I guess it looked futuristic.
Larry watches as Moe smokes his billiard, while Shemp goads him. After Shemp dares to wag his tongue at Moe...Moe deposits his ash and bottle onto Shemp's tongue...
In case anyone wondered if I watch anything other than cartoons, bad comedy, and sci-fi "B" movies...
Lots of smoking going on in 12 Angry Men, mostly cigarettes...typical of 1957, I suppose.
In these screenshots, John Fiedler clutches his pipe while conversing with Jack Warden before their jury gets to the business of rendering their verdict in a murder trial. Hard to tell what shape it is, maybe a straight pot?
In the second pic he smokes the pipe as the jury foreman, played by Martin Balsam, addresses his fellow members of the jury.

^^ A "prince" perhaps?
Looks like a straight acorn.
Yes! Most of the acorns that I'm familiar with are bent and have a more pronounced point at the heel...but right you are.

It's non-fiction, but Paul Scofield, as Mark Van Doren, puffs on a pipe in Quiz Show (1994).
I'll be honest...I have not looked at this entire thread, so this may have already been posted. Regardless, it needs no commentary from me:
He's been mentioned, but Lee Van Cleef is always worthy of a bump.

In the 2020s version of All Creatures Great and Small, Siegfried Farnon, the senior vet at the Yorkshire veterinary clinic, is often shown smoking his pipe. Season Four, Ep. Two, even has a smoking subplot: He has given up the pipe for Lent, and it is making him irritable. His housekeeper, Mrs. Hall, has hidden his tobacco and he keeps hunting for it. At the end he does make it to Easter, and we see him using his lighter to fire up a bowl at his desk.
The pipe looks to be the same in most scenes, a straight or very lightly bent smooth apple.

Pipes show up in several episodes of season 2 of SAS Rogue Heroes.
