King of the C-List celebrities, Don Knotts dead at 81. Thought he was way older, or at least, was 81 for a really long time already. Gracias por todos las memorias, Don!
  • It's only lately that I've stared to appreciate his talents. What a career. I see at the same site that Darren McGavin, aka Kolchak the Night Stalker, has also left the building.
  • If by "C-List" you mean the the Great and Holy list of "Comedians" then yeah, I agree. Clowning, thy name was Barney. RIP Señor Knotts.
  • He died three days ago. Let's get this fucking show on the road, here.
  • yeah where you been? *loads single bullet*
  • Yes. The title of this post should have been King of the C-List celebrities, Don Knotts still dead at 81.
  • I say we oughta lock you up and throw away the key mister!! *bugs eyes, shakily points*
  • i thought c-list was more like soap opera actors/actresses? and yeah welcome to last week dude
  • Give Capt. Renault a break. Better late than .... oh
  • Man oh man. 1. I didn't know before this morning, because 2. I don't have access to the internets on the weekend, not having a home computer, and having to spend all my surfing time at work, and lastly, 3. Whatever. You can all shampoo my crotch.
  • And if you've run out of crotch shampoo kids here are some handy hints!
  • I didn't know until I saw it on TV Land last night, and since nobody else posted it first it's fair game. That said, the most I'll contribute to the crotch-shampooing effort is an old towel.

  • Be realistic. We couldn't possibly all shampoo your crotch. A select few, maybe, but certainly not all of us. Is it too late for me to make an fpp that Errol Flynn died?
  • Well we could take it in turns... who wants the first shift?
  • Looks like the trifecta's been hit, too. From CNN: "AP: Actor Dennis Weaver has died of cancer, his publicist says."
  • rats. beaten by a snarkywench. y'know - again.
  • ERROL FLYNN’S NOT DEAD ALFRED LORD TENNYSON He grabs the rope with withered hands, Swings through the air and softly lands; Girt with a silver sword he stands. That rotting man is Errol Flynn; He bares a grey and toothless grin, And like a zombie eats my skin.
  • Alright, then scratch that idea.
  • This just in.... Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
  • Fuckin' Don Knotts! Name that movie?
  • Zombie Reagan still dead, news at 11.
  • snarkywench has posted 0 links and 9 comments on MonkeyFilter since September 16, 2004. Wow. That's some quality lurking, snarkywench. And all it took was for Dennis Weaver to die. (And you'd better make with the shampoo, people. This crotch ain't gonna lather itself.)
  • snarkywench has posted 0 links and 9 comments on MonkeyFilter since September 16, 2004. Wow. That's some quality lurking, snarkywench. And all it took was for Dennis Weaver to die. Indeed. Now just imagine if someone of the status of... oh, say, Kevin Federline were to pass? Oh, the posts I could write then! And my posting history has exactly what to do with what?
  • Oh, nothing, really. It's just that an unfamilliar name popped up, and I was surprised to see a lower signup number than my own. Nine posts since September '04, well, it shows a greater restraint than I myself am capable of. I'm just interested in what brings some lurkers out into the surface world, what they find irresistable to comment upon -- and here it was the death of Dennis Weaver. Huh. Nothing meant by it. Everyone, please go about your business...
  • Mick Jagger gets invited to the Playboy Mansion, and when he gets there there's nobody to meet him. So he lets himself in and looks around for people. In one of the bedrooms he finds Hef goin' at it in bed with Dennis Weaver, and yells "Hey! Hey! Hugh! Hugh! Get offa McCloud!" That joke KILLED in grade six
  • I demand that snarkywench and the Cap'n go into the Thunderdome right now.
  • Sweet Mothra -- what's up with the gang-up-on-the-Captain today? Fergittit, mct. Ten minutes to go before I clock out for the day, I'm not going into any Thunderdome. Screw that. Taste my golden spray.
  • Dude, I totally wouldn't taste that if I were you.
  • *sprays Easter X gas in Huron Bob's face, points out Capt. Renault's fresh, tasty brain*
  • MonkeyFilter: It shows a greater restraint than I myself am capable of
  • I once had a copy of a video put out by the folks who design Earthships, hosted by Dennis Weaver. He couldn't stop talking about his 9,000 square foot luxury home -- he must've used that phrase about a dozen times in reference to his Earthship, a structure made of tires, rammed earth and aluminum cans. To me he always came across very robotic, a Mi-Go nonentity...
  • C-list??? Crikey, even Nick Lachey is B-list. Give a dead guy a break, why dontcha. And while your at it, can I borrow your face for a few days? My ass is going on holiday. (More Rickles than Knotts, but what the hey.)
  • I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Monkeyfilter community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
  • Hmm...can't find one single news report of this on the web. Or King's web site. You sure about that?
  • Also I happen to be watching CNN at the moment. Nothing there, either. (But Jon Stewart is on Larry King. The only reason to watch.)
  • WTF? C-list celebrities not worth the "."? Man, mofi used to be cool.
  • Oh, and
  • .
  • hey lara? Fake Steven King death reports are comedy gold in the internet world.
  • The "." is passe. The "!" is the new stupidity.
  • ?
  • bleh

  • Oh sure, I get it. Using humor in a thread about a great comedian. No no, the irony is there. It's thick. Like Zorro. Why I wouldn't be surprised, what with threadspace being at a premium, if you didn't justify your humour however you want! Humor indeed. Well! *walks into lamppost*
  • Knotty woulda loved it! Great tribute, pete.
  • This crotch ain't gonna lather itself. Your crotch is a failure. My crotch not only lathers itself, it makes a noise like a dolphin at the same time.
  • Monkeyfilter: Your crotch is a failure.
