He died today at 94. Understated delivery and yet, very very funny. Spent a lot of time watching his show as a kid.

RIP Bob

Deadpan was part of what made him iconic. I loved his humor.

One of my favorites:

I don't like country music, but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. And for the people who like country music, denigrate means 'put down'.

The original Bob Newhart show was great. I really liked the full version of the theme song to that show. Those semi-circle group therapy sessions were great. Very talented and funny comic. RIP.

It's very sad to see him go but he lived a long and productive life. Nobody can see he was one that was taken too soon.

RIP Bob.

A master of deadpan timing and delivery.

His stand ups were next-level. Cerebral.

He was unique. My favorite original BN show episode was the Thanksgiving episode where Bob, Jerry (his "office neighbor") dentist, apartment neighbor Howard, the pilot and patient Mr Carlin. They got drunk watching a college football game playing a drinking game, them ordered Chinese Food which was hilarious.

Bob lived a life longer than most. A most wonderful life I suspect.


RIP.
