Montecito California. Can Still Remember when this Comedy Gem of a Human Being Passed Away. Happy Birthday, You Goof. The 2013 TCM Film Festival was held just a couple of weeks after he passed away, and he was scheduled to appear at the screening of It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World at the Cinerama Dome, joining Mickey Rooney, Karen Kramer, Barrie Chase, and Marvin Kaplan. They left an empty chair for Jonathan Winters, and had a special tribute video prior to the film screening. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepiatone Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Comedy wise was ahead of his time. We "boomers" loved him in the '60's and beyond. I know many who STILL pronounce it "Gar-BAHJ" ! Was also it seemed, a huge influence of Robin Williams'. Sepiatone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Far As "Main" Ensemble Characters Go. i think (Unfortunately) there are only two remaining Performers/Artists from aforementioned Behemoth Comedy, Still With Us today. (Madam) Barry Chase. And (while i dont/cant remember the fellows name at present); a Fellow Office In Arms with Culpepper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewhite2000 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 "They love it when you touch them on the leg a little bit" "My fourth wife ... the first three, they were rotten ... teenagers, all of them, kids, but fun ... no brains, you know, but from here on down, gangbusters!" Ah ha ha ha ha "I happened to be a cannon outfit in World War II" ... Dean has to cover his face to hide his laughter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
