Remembering comedy legend Bob Newhart

[@luannestrickland4199]

Thank you Bob for the laughs you gave us all.

[@Paul1958R]

RIP Bob Newhart. Great entertainer.
One of Newharts great phone conversations:
'Mr. Carlin you sound so down in the dumps. Where are you?...You're down at the dump...' Brilliant

Everybody loves Bob.

[@reha1066]

Bob was the BEST!

[@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624]

RIP Bob Newhart. We love you! : )

[@richardfratus7726]

A long and very successful career. His first and classic album "The button-downed mind...." came out in 1960, and he has entertained the world every since. He seemed like a genuinely nice man, and it feels like we have lost a real friend. Thanks for the memories, Bob.

[@sandybear61]

The best thing about Bob was his timing. Brilliant!

[@Comictalent]

In a week we lost Shelley Duvall, Richard Simmons, Shannon Doherty, and Bob Newhart. What on earth is happening??
RIP to one of the true comic giants of television and entertainment.

[@JasonDelarosa2000]

Aways LOVED BOB NEWHEART!!! RIP. Dear soul, your time on this earth shall never be forgotten!!!! ❤😂

[@rustybear5125]

I miss him already. All my people from my era are leaving. This has been a brutal year so far as far as celebrity loses. Goodnight Bob. Thanks for the laughs.

[@mysongsoffaith]

Bob Newhart wasn't just a comedian; he was a beacon of joy and wit in our lives. His humor transcended generations, bringing families together around the TV. Every laugh, every smile, was a gift from him to us. RIP to a legend who showed us that clean, clever comedy could touch hearts and change lives. We'll never see another like him. 💔 😞

[@susansellars3869]

He will be missed, a very funny man, now he is making heaven laugh! God speed!

[@twulff7060]

Another legend has left this world and made heaven more funny. May he bring as much laughter to the angels as he brought to us.

[@AlmostReady504]

Too often we lose someone from the soundtrack of our youth

[@simonm7133]

So sad to hear this news. I remember listening to him as a child in the sixties in the UK as my dad was a huge fan and bought an LP of Newhart . Introducing Tobacco to Civilisation is still as funny today as it was when the man first recorded it.

[@ahmaudarberywasaviolentkle8094]

He was underrated.

[@craigbart7086]

I worked in Westwood ca and Bob used to eat lunch at the same place every day then come to our place to use bathroom.He was super nice .I told him I had a crush on Suzanne planchet he said who didn't 😅

[@daudder]

Truly a great comedian, TV and film legend. Nobody was like him. Ever.

[@AlmostReady504]

Cannot believe he didn't win an Emmy until the Big Bang nonsense.
What a Class Act
He was one of a kind comedic genius. One of the very last of the golden age of comedy and television stars.
Thank you for the Bob Newhart Show(s) and all the laughs throughout my life ❤ RIP🙏🏼

Loved Bob Newhart he was One of The Greats. Everything he did was Pure Gold. He will be so Missed. He was One of a Kind!

[@johnaltobello5095]

Made Chicago proud..

[@davetheknave6482]

One of the all-time best, RIP.

[@elane5746]

Best finale ever! Great man!

[@joeybonin7691]

I wasn't aware of the 1961 award. That is impressive. We had his albums back then, they were so funny and endearing.

[@bobbillings]

Growing up in the region as a preteen thru adult in the entire 1980s decade, that opening intro and music of the show"Newhart" Hearing it today takes me back to a better, happier time in the world for me as I vividly remember watching a new episode that ran every week during those years it was on from 1982-1990, gathered in the living room with my loved ones all gone now.

[@MichaelKurse]

Chicago's Own. He got his start on Chicago TV with Mike Douglas,and his co-star, Bill Daily, who played the pilot neighbor.

[@airtiki2374]

Howard Borden was A Navigator- just saying

[@ericsamuelson5656]

I grew up watching his 80s sitcom as an innkeeper in Vermont. I watched his 70s sitcom in reruns. Rest easy with Suzanne Pleshette, Mary Frann, and everyone else from both shows. Only Peter Bonerz, Julia Duffy, Steve Kampman, and Larry, Daryl, and Daryl are left.

[@user-nn3ii1ct7k]

He was such a class act R I p bob ❤️‍🩹💋

[@Le_Serviette_Noir]

Hi Bob!
Bob Newhart was a pretty good bowler too.
In the recent past, I've looked at some of the Celebrity Bowling episodes on FreeVee.
Most of the celebrities couldn't bowl worth a damn but Bob Newhart, as well as Roy Rogers, could roll that ball!
R.I.P., Bob Newhart. You were great!

[@tracycase4520]

Best series finale ever!

[@dalehoward3704]

We LOOVED you BOB NEWHART❤❤❤❤❤ RIP 🙏✝️❤‼️

[@user-vr6xm8lm1o]

I read Newhart’s autobiography years ago, he said Don Rickles would say over and over to everybody, “ Bob Newhart is my best friend!”
And later, Bob was very sad when Don died, so I wonder, is Don giving him a big party on
the 3rd plane? 😮

[@ajm1268]

Bob Newhart served his country ! 😊

[@zachhoran]

Bob Newhart was a contestant on the July 18, 2024 episode of Celebrity Bucket Kickers.

[@markcornish2519]

@@zachhoran kind of tacky

[@zachhoran]

@@markcornish2519 It has been called everything from tacky to sick to tasteless to funny in the 12.5 years it has been used to say a famous person croaked, starting with the Shitney Houston bucket kicking on 2/11/2012

[@user-kg2fz4xo2x]

Thanks Bob. You were a pleasure...

[@haeuptlingaberja4927]

I grew up on Don Rickles, Redd Foxx, Mel Brooks, Richard Pryor and Cheech and Chong, not to mention Rodney and all those Catskills funny men, but the friendship between Newhart and Rickles is maybe the greatest testimony of the possibility of pluralism in the decaying American Dream. There was a time, 50 years ago and more, when we really believed it was possible.

[@butziporsche8646]

I actually got a bit misty. Damn, I grew up with him in the 70s.

[@wmjlambert]

Just looking at his face makes me laugh! What a gift. We are sooo much better off by his genius.

[@nancydavis4618]

I loved him

[@bernadettehunt9346]

Oh,Bob, you were a nice Man,love and prayers for those left behind 🌈💋💯😥😔

[@matthewnovak5734]

A genius

[@debbiemiller8018]

Such a cool guy❤

[@kathrynhill5796]

If you were a kid born in the late 70s and early 90s, then you would most likely remember Bob Newhart in the Walt Disney Animated films, The Rescuers and The Rescuers Down Under. He did the voice of Bernard.

[@user-pu6vb4mj3m]

No idea he died. A few minutes ago I stumbled on the Phil Donahue show in which he and Don Rickels were being interviewed and thought of googling one of the show series he did with Suzanne Pleshette. He was a funny man who had a long life. May he RIP.

[@guru6831]

RIP

[@bartman898]

Some Mary Tyler Moore, some Newhart and Carol Burnett. Great t.v.

[@watermain48]

They didn't even mention the days of "The Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart". Good times, those.

[@maureenchandlerreid7916]

The finale of Newhart was genius only if you were familiar with the bob Newhart show and knew that Suzanne pleshette played his wife on there. I loved the show Newhart but the ending was completely confusing to me and I wondered why the studio audience went crazy with applause when Suzanne turned around in bed to reveal herself. So it may be lost on future generations that watch Newhart but not his first show. Bob Newhart a class act comedy legend. He’ll be missed.

[@Robnoxos]

TAKE A DRINK... here it comes!
"Bye, Bob"

[@janicebunch7599]

When he checks in at the pearly gates he will see St Peter who introduces him to the angel Darrell and the other angel Darrell

[@tomripsin730]

3:23 Why didn't they mention that the famous series ending was a parody of a stunt they pulled on Dallas some time previously? That's one reason why it was so funny.

[@Transterra55]

He was married for 60 years not 50 years…

[@gingergeezer3685]

Thank you. Annoying mistake.

[@ricdintino9502]

He was married for SIXTY years, not fifty.

[@bbaarneyy]

You forgot one series. First was the Bob Newhart show, second was Newhart, but you forgot the third: Bob. Then he ran out of names, I guess.

[@markcornish2519]

And George and leo

[@robertc.1958]

​@@markcornish2519 : Yeah, I was going to say - to: @bbaatneyy - nope, he had one ( 1 ) more sitcom - the short-lived "George & Leo"* ( from his ACTUAL FIRST name - George. ) That is - Bob Newhart was actually George Robert "Bob" Newhart.
*1997 - 1998, one ( 1 ) season.

[@yvetteking7749]

Actually, he had a short-lived show in 1961, called The Bob Newhart Show. Then, he had The Bob Newhart Show in the 1970s. Then, he had Newhart in the 1980s. Then, he had the short-lived shows Bob, and George and Leo in the 1990s. I believe that he held some sort of record for having at least one TV show in each of those decades.

[@diverdave4056]

and WHY do the TV reporters always sound like fools ???

[@tedtimothy9074]

I read his story. He was a CPA and his clients thought he was a funny guy and they persuaded him to go into show business

BOB NEWHART RECORDED THE ALBUM..."THE BUTTON-DOWN MIND OF BOB NEWHART" AT THE TIDELANDS MOTOR INN HERE IN HOUSTON.
IT WAS A LIVE COMEDY ALBUM WHICH WAS NOT ALL THAT COMMON FOR ITS TIME.
IT WAS HILARIOUSLY FUNNY... BOB NEWHART'S TELEPHONE BITS ARE PRICELESS !!!

[@beaudwayful]

Memorable album!
