I will always love this guy for giving us the Dick Van Dyke show. And as much as he did behind the scenes he was crying brilliant in front as the petulant tv star.

If you ever get the chance, watch jim on "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee." He apparently watched TV with Mel Brooks every night.

Thanks to that episode, my first thought was that Mel.lost his TV buddy. Sad to see another great go.

One of my favorites, when Laura let it slip that Alan Brady wore a hairpiece and she went to see him to apologize. He is just as brilliantly funny as she is cute.

I've got to be honest and say I only knew him from Ocean's. But, from those movies alone it was easy to see he was the real deal. RIP.

Well, he was 98. I look for Mel Brooks to follow him within a year. They were closer than brothers. That will be a sad day.

Can't say I was ever a fan.
But without him there wouldn't be Rob Reiner & he has made several of my all time favorite movies. :)
