RIP to a great comedian and a troubled man.
Just saw this on Fox news. Really sad :( . He was a funny man, he'll be missed.
Yakety Yak, Don't Smoke Crack.

RIP, saw this on global tv and they made a short clip about him. he was funny.
:O :pinch: :mellow: :frusty: :(
He's my favorite comedian of all time.
WOW...That sucks.
He is without a doubt, irreplaceable.
Btw, how old is Gene Wilder these days? He's gotta be up there by now. I was thinking maybe he was in poor health as well since I haven't seen him in like ten years. :ermm:
he seems to be doing okay. saw him on tv earlier this year peddling his autobiography. apparently he's ready to do some shit-talkin' now, too. about gilda and about richard pryor. neither could be bothered to respond at the time of publishing, due to one being dead and the other deathly ill. :PQuote:

not that i don't enjoy gene's work. willy wonka, the producers, young frankenstein, etc. gene's great. it's just... man... celebs and their "issues."
RIP Richard Pryor.
Did you realise he was one of the main writers for Blazing Saddles? My favourite comedy film.
What a shame,he was fantastic,See no evil,Hear no evil is one of my all time favourite comedy film.
They'll be laughing in the afterlife tonight :lol:
I thought that movie was aight. His earlier stuff was the best...funny enough he was on drugs at the time.Quote:

I remember him being Comedy Central's #1 comedian of all time.
he looked like my dad. probably more so now cause he'll be pale
RIP
I never really got a lot of his stand up stuff because I couldn't understand his accent but clearly he was a star and a well loved one at that.
What I liked best about him , he was before his time .Starting out as a poor black man ,uneducated in raciest America shoving it to the man . Many came after , Eddie Murphy comes to mind and one of my fav's but not as raw as Pryor was . He'll be missed tho .
