Title: RIP Don Knotts/Darren McGavin Post by: punkinhead on February 26, 2006, 08:45:14 PM Two legendary people in my opinion.
-no time for sergeants- an underrated film. -McGavin in A Christmas Story- amazing character ::) Title: Re: RIP Don Knotts/Darren McGavin Post by: Chance on February 26, 2006, 09:15:25 PM Wow, sorry to hear this. Knotts, of course, is timeless. One of the greats.
And McGavin, yep, terrific in A Christmas Story, and the Night Stalker and all the rest. I'm suddenly remembering a series in which he was a sports writer too. I used to like that show. Funny, haven't thought of it in two decades, but I still remember. Two lives that left their mark. A tip of the glass...

Ralph Furley was a lovable loser. Much like myself.... Title: Re: RIP Don Knotts/Darren McGavin Post by: wind chime on February 27, 2006, 03:12:48 AM I always loved Don Knotts!!! This is a sad day indeed!!!

One of the better live action Disney movies from the 70s, IMO, if not simply for their respective performances.

Title: Re: RIP Don Knotts/Darren McGavin Post by: Bean Bag on February 27, 2006, 07:45:28 AM No way! Wasn't Knotts just on that 70s show? Sad. One of THE greatest TV stars PERIOD.
Title: Re: RIP Don Knotts/Darren McGavin Post by: donald on February 28, 2006, 02:17:51 PM Two of my favorite characters. And I read just this morning of the passing of Denis Weaver. Another favorite character.
The years just creep up on me. Doesn't seem possible that all of these guys got old and died. Title: Re: RIP Don Knotts/Darren McGavin Post by: punkinhead on March 01, 2006, 05:26:36 AM celeb death in 3s...wierd
