Hermit Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 Damn it. I remember him best not as a smart ass parrot , but as one of the late night hosts of USA Up All Night. He always had that look 'you couldn't find anything better to watch huh?' on his face, with a touch of 'me? I'm getting paid' He came across as obnoxious, irritating, and oddly likable. What he was like in Real life, I do not know, and maybe it's best because he SEEMED nice and I hate to have that ruined. But condolences to his family Enforcer84 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 Damn. His podcast was one of my favorites. I learned a lot about Hollywood history from him and his guests. More, I learned to like and respect him. Damn. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjack Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 His rendition of the “Aristocrats” joke helped break the sadness after 9/11. He deserves a place in comedy heaven for that alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Ruggels Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 His reading of "Fifty Shades of Gray" had me in stitches. He also voiced Mr. Myxzpltlc for the DCAU, and really put all his frustration into that one. He is definitely going to be missed. mattingly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevinvt Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 Damn.

death tribble Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 First really introduce to British audiences via Beverley Hills Cop II. But I also saw in the Adventures of Ford Fairlaine and then as the voice of Iago the parrot in Aladdin. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher R Taylor Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 A very funny man who was willing to go too far to get people to laugh and have fun. He had a great podcast, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archer Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 14 hours ago, Michael Hopcroft said: English, please? Myotonic Dystrophy is a form of muscular dystrophy. Tachycardia is an abnormally rapid heartbeat. Since they specify that it's only in a portion of his heart rather than the whole thing, it sounds like his heartbeat between the upper chambers and lower weren't in synch. If that's what was happening, it'd cause additional weakness beyond the dystrophy. And perhaps blood continually backing up in his system because it's not getting into and out of the heart properly.

We both laughed so hard. The problem, of course, is that now I want to say this in response to silly and/or daft answers to questions. But being a high school teacher, I'd probably get nasty e-mails from parents. 58 minutes ago, Ternaugh said: We'd never seen this one, either. Amazing work by two comedy geniuses.
