Don Knotts passes away at 81

[Brain Toad]

Don Knotts, the skinny, lovable nerd who kept generations of television audiences laughing as bumbling Deputy Barney Fife on "The Andy Griffith Show," has died. He was 81.

I was really shocked at this, when I read it, my jaw just dropped. I was just talking about him the other day with my dad. He was hilarious and was loved by both my parents and me.

Oh I read about this.
I'm sorry he died.

Wow, I can remember laughing at him back in the day.

My godfather was a big fan of his, I used to watch Andy Griffith when I visited him.

RIP.

Woah. That's really sad. :(

He was so funny, especially on Three's Company.

This is so sad. I loved him. He was very funny. I also thought he was already dead.

[nobodyblossomsforever]

Well, at least he lived a long life.

I saw one movie of his, it was called the Reluctant Astronaut, and it was a pile of feces.

Nice use of obtrusive avatar.

[nobodyblossomsforever]

He was also in "Silent Movie" I believe.

[Mr. Badguy]

And in one or two Scooby-Doo cartoons!

As it's already been said, at least he lived a long and very eventful life. He will indeed be missed.

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

God, I miss him already. Did anybody ever see The Ghost and Mister Chicken?

[PepsiMetal]

Aww crap. I loved his work. His Three's Company part was great.
