RIP Bob Newhart at 94

RIP to a seriously funny man. His humor was always a little dry, but if you "got" him, he was one of the best.

Always great on Carson or the Dan Martin roasts.

He was great in everything he did. His low-key, put-upon characters were all relatable and sympathetic.

The ending of "Newhart" was fucking brilliant.

Yea he was. Just a professional. Yep. Definitely. Just too funny. May he rest in peace.

Interestingly, the first role I saw him in was as the low-key asshole bigot principal in In & Out.

Discovered him late thanks to TBBT but everything I've seen of him is great. Such brilliant comedic timing and delivery and seemed like a lovely bloke.

Loved both of Bobs Shows. Still catch them on TV all the time. Then of course we had him introduced to another whole new generation with the Film Elf and then The Big Bang theory.

RIP. - I tended to remember him from The Librarian films, but also Big Bang

Newhart, especially after Michael, Stephanie, Larry and the Daryls joined was just a perfect sitcom. And the ending will go down in history as the greatest sitcom (if not greatest series) finale ever. RIP Bob

A major major talent.....though perhaps he was miscast as Major Major.

Rest In Peace. My parents had his first two records (The Button-Down Mind & The Button-Down Mind Strikes Back!), so I first heard him in 1960 before I saw him. The first time I saw him was in the movie Hell Is for Heros (1962), where he performed his comedy skit of a one way conversation on a Pill Box phone line the US GI's know the Germans had tapped.
