Not sure I can celebrate the hit as I'm a bit gutted...

 

Sad death. RIP.

Hit No.4 :clap:

#15 for me.  Hopefully he's reunited with Rickles and they are cracking jokes together.  RIP.

It was long overdue, he looked awful in the last photos. A bit sad the drought has ended as I would have loved to see a record of no more deaths after january

If Deathlist follows the law of bus frequencies we can expect at least 2 more hits in the coming days.

Just wanted to point out that the past 3 years have all seen cast members of the 2003 holiday hit Elf dying, in 2021 Ed Asner, in 2022 James Caan and in 2023 Michael Lerner died.

 

Superstition makes me think that Newhart will make it a 4 year streak (either that or Will Ferrell is going to have a very bad year).

4 year streak it is...

 

Will Ferrell better look out next year.

Finally Hit Number 4 has happened! It's only taken half the year!

 

RIP Bob Newhart

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.

Bad timing for me -  I'm taping The Bob Newhart Show now but haven't gotten to it yet so my obit on him would be far more informed had he died in a few months' time!

 

Though I have watched an Ed Sullivan Christmas special a couple of times, recorded in the early 90s well after Sullivan's death so Bob Newhart hosted. RIP.

This one hurts a lot. Big fan of his comedy, his friendship with Don Rickles, The Bob Newhart Show, Newhart, and The Rescuers. He shall be missed.

"Yeah, I know they've been having problems for ages..... since January I think.... something like the longest streak of the 21st century? I mean they should have picked.... right, yeah.... oh really they've broken it? Finally, Jimmy Carter has d.... wait what?"

Bob himself would be proud of this!

OldWillz had a slew of his vinyl when I was a boy, that's really how I knew him.

 

I rather liked his eponymous sitcom, was it set in a ski lodge or something?

 

Anyway, RIP to one of the greats.

The sitcom, Newhart, was set in an inn in Vermont. The Bob Newhart Show was set in Chicago where his character played a psychologist.
