That's a real shame, he was the best wrestling interviewer ever and always made it seem like he was part of a legit sport

Bob Einstein, maybe best known for being Marty Funkhouser in Curb Your Enthusiastiasm.

Made me laugh out loud so many times.

Thanks for the laughs.

someone you never hear about these days but you couldn't turn your tv on 30-40 years ago without him popping out from behind a tree or bush - David Bellamy, old and frail now

About a month ago, he’s usually an early nomination.

i stand by my previous nominee of Billy Connolly but I hope not obviously.

Clint Eastwood ain't looking too good either these days despite still working hard to direct and produce stuff.

He has been quoted as saying in recent days that he is 'slipping away' and that he is 'near the end'. He has Parkinsons and Cancer IIRC. He's being very pragmatic about it all, good for him. Sadly I suspect he has months, not years. A great guy.
