RIP Mr. Grant.

 

[Eisen]

I think Lou Grant was the first American show i watched.

 

[Sticksandsun]

RIP, who's still alive from the Mary Tyler Moore show?

 

[Burnoutboi]

I was surprised when he did the voice over for one of the Jedi Masters in the first KOTOR game.

As a kid, he seemed to be in most of the movies I saw. RIP, super prolific actor man.

RIP

 

[John Price]

He played a lot of hilarious roles later in his life including

J Jonah Jameson

The uncle in curb your enthusiasm who talked to the cowboy lawyer

Ed wuncler 1 in boondocks

It seemed that everything he was in was just outstandingly hilarious. From freakazoid to gargoyles to boondocks he was in em all. And that's just cartoons too. You heard that voice you started laughing.

A master of his craft rip

 

[reckoning]

He did a great job playing a role in a comedy series, then continued the same role in a dramatic series, and made it seem believable. Not many actors could pull that off.

The leaves Betty White left from the show

 

[archangel2]

You want a definition of a good actor?

Going from a basic comedy(mary tylor Moore) to his own tv show(lou grant) playing the same character--but making them different

And John Amos

 

[archangel2]

And John Amos

if you factor him in then there is about 12 actors still alive from the show. Amos was in 14 out of 168 shows-he was never a regular

Fair enough, I won't argue that.

Betty White.

 

[Hasbro]

It’s just weird to me that he’s gone since he’s been a gruff institution my whole life.
