News Bob Newhart-gone.. ugh - Page 4

Bob Newhart has passed away at age 94. His wit and deadpan delivery and stammering style made him a must-watch for generations. The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart won a Grammy and topped the charts while The Bob Newhart Show and Newhart are still classics.
He will be so missed. pic.twitter.com/HQmBdPCir9

Dude was best buds with Don Rickles, and while the two couldn’t have been more different in style, the two performed together for years back in the day, and their stuff is incredible. To be a fly on the wall with those two…

And has been said here already, the final episode, or more precisely, the final sequence from his 80’s/90’s sitcom Newhart is positively the gold standard on how to pull off a series finale. It won’t be topped.

Absolute legend. RIP.

Now I'm curious. I don't remember that...

He was magnificent in The Rescuers movies.

I hope Suzanne Pleshette greeted him into the afterlife with "Hi Bob!"

In a way it's one of the first really public Easter eggs.

It was his wife's idea that he should sleep with Suzanne and Suzanne supported the idea
