Bob Newhart RIP

Timothy Birdnow

Actorand comedian Bob Newhart passed away. He was 94.

Newhart was famous for his mild, dry as white toast manner and his unflappable nature. He generally played "the little gray man" and did so with aplomb.

I heard Newhart discuss getting into comedy once. He said people used to laugh and tell him what funny guy he was and he was just speaking normally. He suddenly realized he could make a living just being himself. So he perfected his craft, becoming one of America's iconic comic figures of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

He will be missed.

1 He was wonderful. And performed for mature audiences. I doubt we'll see his like -- or theirs -- again.

2 The platform's variety ensures that TikTok viewers are never bored. There's always a new video to watch or a new creator to follow.tiktok viewer profile

3 I agree Dana. He was clean but aimed at mature audiences. Now "mature audiences" means filthy. And you can't do comedy anymore anyway, unless it's sexual or political (leftist political).

Newhart was a dying breed.
