Thanks for posting. My wife refuses to believe any celebrity is dead until I can verify that it is posted on ChiefsPlanet.

I think I saw him roasting someone once; I was dying laughing.

MAJOR bummer.
|
That's the one Frankie LMAO
I love watching that. |
Not Shoe! (Vague Mork and Mindy episode reference, stuck in my head for no good reason. If anyone has any idea what I'm talking about I'll rep them (without using a web search))
Wasn't this guy on every other episode of Scooby Doo playing multiple characters? RIP |
I would've loved to have dropped Acid and toured the white house with Jim Carrey and Jonathan Winters.

A true great. Robin Williams will be crushed.
|
Very funny man RIP
|
RIP. He was so funny in so many ways. A great improv comedian. It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World still one of my favorites
|
This guy really had a life. He was a marine, an art student, a painter, an impressionist, a TV star, won Grammys for comedy, won Emmys for TV, had one of the first TV shows broadcast in color...
He was also a raging alcoholic for a long time, and wound up spending eight months in an insane asylum. Without him, we don't have Carson's goofy sketch comedy, Robin Williams improv or Jim Carrey's physical humor. One of the true comedy greats. One of a kind. Big loss to comedy. Good overview of his life is here: http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx?ne...&ocid=ansent11 |

He and Charles Durning, who we just recently lost as well, lived some big lives. |
Man...loved his comedy. They play some of his old improv bits on 24/7 Comedy where he would take audience suggestions and act them out. RIP.

High praise from Bill Cosby back in 2011:
