The great comedian and comedic actor, Jonathan Winters, has reportedly passed. Winters hadn't been active much the past few years, so many of you kids may not know him. But for those of us who grew up with Winters, he was sort of the crazy, beloved, nutsy next-door master of improv and characters you loved to see show up on TV. If he hadn't mostly retired, he would fit in beautifully in today's movie scene shot on video and improvising around the script.
He'll be missed.
I'm going to YouTube to go dig up some of his stuff. You should, too.
He was one of my favorites. A chubby Robin Williams - before Robin's time.
