Bob Needs a New Heart 10/50 18th July 2024 American comedian and actor Bob Newhart has died. Newhart’s professional comedy career started in 1960 when he was a guest on ‘The Ed Sullivan Show’. Very seen after in 1961 NBC gave him his own variety show of his own, despite the programme only running for 27 episodes it won numerous awards and established Newart as a man who could lead. Throughout the 60s he continued to have guest stops on a number of American variety shows. In 1972 he was given his second eponymous show, which would run for 142 episodes until 1978, ‘The Bob Newhart Show’ was a family/workplace as opposed to his previous work mostly in the variety genre. His third eponymous show simply titled ‘Newhart’, another sitcom, began in 1982 and ran for 184 episodes until 1990. 2 years after that his fourth and final show named after himself began airing, another sitcom CBS’s ‘Bob’ only lasted for 33 episodes and just over a year. In 1997 he starred alongside Judd Hirsh in the short lived sitcom 'George and Leo’. Following the turn of the millennium Newhart’s career slowed down, guest starring in shows like ‘Desperate Housewives' and ‘NCIS’. In 2013 he began playing Professor Proton in ‘The Big Bang Theory’, a role he played for 9 episodes across the show and its spin-off ‘Young Sheldon’. Although mainly known for television throughout the decades Newhart made appearances in a small number of films, such as Disney’s ‘The Rescuers’ & its sequel and 2003’s Christmas classic ‘Elf’. Bob Newhart died earlier today aged 94. He was making his second appearance on the Crowdsourced Deathlist, this year at no. 34

July 23

I've literally just written that for his Crowdsource obit.

He has been the "how the f*ck are they still alive" pick for me for the past couple of years now, RIP, but as a Brit with not much connection to him I'm just glad that the last 6-7 months have finally yielded a hit.

With Bob Newhart dead I'll add Dennis Skinner as my new sub

Bob Newhart was on 2 teams here.

This is the second round in a row I've got the no.7 hit, can we please change it to the crazy seven dead pool next time.

4 year streak it is... Will Ferrell better look out next year.

No, I had considered adding that as a new rule but in the end I decided against it.

No worries, take as much time as you need and I hope that things get or are getting better got you.

Justin Bieber — Despacito Even as a massive Taylor Swift fan, I'm willing to admit that LWYMMD is not a good song, however is one of my favourites on my shower playlist just for the energy it awakens in me when it comes on, so I can't not give it a point. There's only a few songs here that I don't like (for reasons other than being sung by Ed Sh**ran), going to be hard choosing what to downvote later on in the round.

I woke up this morning with (what I thought) were insect bites all over my body, and have spent the day cleaning my entire bedroom and bed only to be informed that we've started using a new laundry detergent and it's actually that a rash caused by me being allergic to it. So now I've unnecessarily wasted the day cleaning and will have to wash all of my clothes to get the detergent out.

Having been on holiday this past week, I've just found out that my former MP (and utter twat*) Stuart Andrew has been made Chief Whip of the Conservative Party last week following him moving to a safer seat halfway across the country in the recent election. *I've met and questioned him
