The legend, Leslie Nielsen. Greatly missed, never forgotten. Thank you for all the laughs, Leslie. 🙏🏻
I always loved his voice, too.
RIP Leslie. He was one of the funniest actors around.
Wow, seems like any nice older Canadian guy you'd meet on a small-town street. Such a warm personality!
What a gentleman.
His brother was the Vice Minister of Canada, both came a long ways from their humble beginnings-
Deputy Prime Minister.
Pierre Berton had a lot of knowledge about Hollywood and acting, he did many celebrity interviews over the years. Leslie was an all-rounder, drama, comedy, great actor.
Leslie nielsen did have a serious role in "creepshow" and was great in it. He was a great actor, sadly missed 😢
This is the only interview of Leslie that I've seen so far where he doesn't use his fart toy, unless there's a part two.
What is this? Geriatric convention insulting Leslie Nielsen. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood, those geezers seem quite hostile
I was thinking the same thing, actually.
Leslie didn't seem to care anyway.
