One of the funniest guys around.

Funny guy!!!!!!!!!!

Was also in some older Sci-Fi flicks.....Forbidden Planet Great Flick.

He will be missed

This hurts- "Sure not more than a bicyle with the seat missing but still it hurts"- One funny SOB

Although he spent the early part of his career doing serious acting, his career didn't take off until he started doing comedy.
The "Police Squad" series is hilarious. (The intro ALWAYS carried the 70's/80's trademark opening credit of "And special guest star -xxxxxxx" while showing supposed guest star meeting a gruesome demise.)

After watching the movies they made, I watched the series again just to see how funny he really was.
He was a really talented actor, not just comedic but all-around.
He will be missed!

"Airplane" came first.....that was his springboard! I split my sides watching that movie when it came out....what a great memory! And Barbara Billingsley just passed away not too long ago??? Another "Airplane" alum!

RIP Shirley - one funny guy.
