Leslie Nielsen has died... :-(

I’ll always remember Leslie for his role in “Forbidden Planet”
Anybody know if the props department still has that uber-cool uniform he wore in the flick?
Anyhow
RIP-LN-you will be missed!

I’d be more concerned about Robert Stack or Lloyd Bridges, but apparently they both left us many years ago. (When did that happen?)

Of course, now I have this image in my head of those three actors sitting around a patio table in heaven, with Leslie cleaning his stethoscope, Barbara speaking jive, while Peter Graves clandestinely ogles all the naked cherubs…

He’s gone to a world where Leslie Jr. and all the Leslie Jrs. can sit under a shady tree, breathe the air, swim in the ocean, and go into 7-11 without an interpreter.

Actually, Mr Nielsen this thread isn’t for you. Weird Al Yankovic died today.

Don’t forget, he also played dramatic roles, particularly before he became famous in “Airplane”. He played key roles in two episodes of “Columbo”, I remember: The vicitm in one, and the lover of the murderer in another.

Johnny, some kids on the show yesterday mentioned a new kind of music, ska. You know anything about it?

I was very sad to hear this news confirmed. The truth hurts. Sure, maybe not as much as jumping onto a bicycle with no seat on it, but it still hurts.

I haven’t had this much sex since I was a boy scout leader!

I mean…at the time…I was dating alot.

RIP. :frowning:

I was just about to respond by saying “NOT FUNNY, YOU JERK!” until I finally got the joke.

Still…don’t scare me like that!!! :eek:

Boy, I sure picked the wrong week to quit bad-taste postin’!

I laughed so hard at this bit, I damn near coughed up my shoes. The freeze-frames at the end of *Police Squad *were hilarious.

Robert Hays seems determined to keep injuring himself doing extreme sports. Perhaps he’ll show up, in a full-body cast.

The sign at the Club Flamingo was great too.

Now, now, now, I’m sure that we can handle this situation maturely, just like the responsible adults that we are. Isn’t that right, Mrs… Poopy Pants?

Quoth RealityChuck:

Thanks, I’ve sort of wondered about that ever since I saw Forbidden Planet.

You can’t fool us - you haven’t quit at all!

Chefguy, quick! put a tap on that phone!

I don’t usually post in celebrity death threads, but for some reason I feel compelled to post in this one.

:frowning:

I would have posted this sooner, but I wanted to wait until we were alone.

And when she leaves, put a tail on her.

For the win! :stuck_out_tongue:

RIP, indeed. Good thread…
