I'm sorry to hear this. Recently I enjoyed him as the 'kooky' judge on Boston Legal !

I liked Henry's style. First time I saw him was in the movie The 'burbs... "Do you take me for an imbecile?" That was the line I liked. I never knew he was on Laugh In until the 25th Anniversary show was on TV. Gonna miss his sense of humor.

Henry Gibson was hilarious...a comical genius....

"My congregation supports all denominations," he said on one show, "but our favorites are twenties and fifties."

Not so funny if anyone else were to read it...but f----g hilarious when read by Gibson...

Definately agree... the show itself changed many points of view with its full range of characters.

picky picky picky

when the TV is on in one room, and the person is in another......couldn't that mean the person may be listening and not watching? In any case, don't get me going, otherwise...................................... :)
