A truly brilliant comedian and sitcom actor. He had two eponymous sitcoms and appeared in many others - recently and notably Big Bang Theory as Professor Neutron, he also released several comedy albums that are quite good, mostly consisting of his 'telephone' conversations.
He was 94, and will be missed. Fortunately he left a large body of work behind to be appreciated.

Date: 2024-07-21 04:26 am (UTC)I/we enjoyed the show, but it grew tedious for me as everyone began getting girlfriends and marrying! We pretty much stopped watching before the series ending, saw almost nothing of the final season. But what was very cool was that my wife's boss (at the time) consulted on the very early show where they're up on the roof shooting a laser at the moon! That's part of my wife's job at the observatory. :-)
