OT:. RIP Fred Willard

This is just devastating to me, Fred Willard could be my all time favorite comedic actor. With the exception of Fernwood Tonight, he was never the lead character, he seemed to love making cameos in movies where he would star in one ten minute scene and be the funniest part of the entire movie. A master of improvisation, I doubt they ever bothered to give him a script, any director with brains would just allow him to do whatever he wanted and be confident that whatever he did would be hilarious, much funnier than anything they could have written for him.
My favorite role of his was probably in "Best in Show" where he played the co-host if the dog show at the end of the movie and asked the stupidest questions you have ever heard, each question dumber than the previous one.
The world is a lot less funny today.

When I was a kid, I always got Fred Willard and Frank Bonner mixed up. Willard was very funny. Hard to believe he was 86. These people tend to get frozen in time in your mind, and you forget that time marches on for them as well. Martin Mull (76) is still with us.

RIP Fred

No, I'd never seen it but that clip was funny. Wendy Jo Sperber! Whatever happened to her?

She died of breast cancer in 2005.

I was sorry to hear of his passing. It was always fun to see him pop up in various series and movies. My personal favorite role of his was Amy’s dad on Everybody Loves Raymond.

I just saw him on the last season of Modern Family. They killed his character offscreen. Apparently he will be in all ten episodes of the upcoming Netflix comedy Space Force.

Martin Mull and Fred Willard were both hilarious about 25 years ago on 'Roseanne' when they played the funniest gay couple I think I've ever seen.

Probably the funniest thing he did on that show was his bizarre rant about how he's never eaten a muffin
