He screwed up every skit....which is what made him funny. RIP

He will be missed! One of the best parts of Late Night!

He was hilarious, at least back when Letterman was funny. Thankfully, we still have Joel Goddard for our crazy old man yearnings.

I never understood what was so funny about him. Is being older, fat, balding, and farsighted humorous?

Same, and it's why I made this thread. Best wishes, Calvert, wherever you may travel.
