Wonderful. This was a stressful, crappy day as it was, and now I get online to find that Tony Randall has died. Felix Unger is no longer with us, and I am sad.

Articles here, here, and here.

Later I may curl up with a cup of tea, my Odd Couple tapes, and my copy of The 7 Faces of Dr. Lao, but for now, I just want an advil and a nap.

Oh, I love that movie! So glad to see it appreciated. I am deeply saddened that he is no longer with us.

I'm glad to see someone else loves that movie, too! I've adored it since I was a kid. Randall was so amazing in it, playing all those different roles. And who can't love the little Loch Ness Monster, who only gets big when he's out of water? ;)

A brilliant movie, and he's so brilliant in it! Thanks for reminding me of it - I was trying to remember why I had a mental image of Tony Randall as having done something staggeringly wonderful, and now I know!

Ah, it's so nice to see others who have seen and love this movie! It's one of my childhood favorites.

I missed the news yesterday and didn't hear about his passing. How sad. :/ *Hug*

All of my favorite old actors have been dying off in the last few years. It's very sad. *hugs back*

:( They showed a biography about him on A&E last night but I didn't get to watch it. It'll prolly be on again sometime soon though.

I didn't even think to look for something like that. I'll have to see if I can catch it later.

I've been watching all my Odd Couple tapes, which is both sad and wonderful. I love that show.
