I iknow the guy who runs that site. Same guy who used to run the dysfunctional family circus. Wonderfully odd and slightly warped sense of humor.

Totally forgot about Pastor Of Muppets

 

[bagger]

You know I got rhymes like Abe vigoda.

 

[NREC34]

Did he have any other joke than being alive?

Seems like a one trick pony.

The dude was in his 90s, being not dead and appearing in a Snickers commercial or on stage at a Phish concert is pretty much the extent of tricks at that age. It's not like he was going to go out there and do Gunther Gebel Williams lion taming or something

been humming Abe Vigoda to the tune My Sharona.

oh I think you're really dead now,

really dead now

oh I think you're really dead now,

Abe Vigoda

There is still hope. It says Reload page for update.

Abe to Mr. Death: "Can you get me off the hook, for old times sake?".

Mr Death: "Sorry, can't do it".

Wasn't he about 80 years old in the Godfather in 1972?

you have him confused with James Caan

Hardly. Caan was young in 1972 but Virgoda looked old even then. My post was sarcasm.

I guess looking old is relative, but he looked like a guy in his 50s to me.

I am older now than Abe was when he was in the Godfather.

The point is that it seems like he has lived a few lifetimes. My favorite Abe quote was -

"Tom, can you get me off the hook? For old time's sake?"

 

[Fennis]

Detective Ron Harris: Hey Fish, does it hurt when those stones come out?

Fish: It can't be too bad. The doctor says it's like giving birth.

Fish: The doctor said he was very lucky, the bullet just grazed him.

Barney Miller: Where'd she hit him?

Fish: In the inseam.

Fish: [Fish is depressed over his age] When Wilson and I were chasing that kid... Do you know what it feels like to be running down 43rd Street, and your partner is cornering a guy on 52nd? Do you how I found out what happened? I asked a reporter! *Four* radio stations beat me to the scene of the crime!

Barney Miller: [sees Fish limping] What's the matter with your foot?

Fish: Gout.

Barney Miller: Rich cooking, huh?

Fish: No. *Poor* cooking, but rich food.

Was Barney Miller a comedy?

 

[Baloney Sandwich]

Barney Miller was one of the first show I ever remember watching and I loved it. Great full episodes like this one on YouTube:

haven't seen it in years- loved it then, but no idea how it holds up (I'm guessing pretty well).

still one of the top bass-lines for anything anywhere.

 

[dhockster]

So Jack Soo, Steve Landesburg, and Abe Vigoda are dead.

I wonder how Hal Linden, Ron Glass, and Max Gail are holding up.

Abe Froman doesn't make the list? Dude is the Sausage King of Chicago.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Oh God said to Abraham, “Kill me a son”
Abe says, “Man, you must be puttin’ me on”
God say, “No.” Abe say, “What?”
God say, “You can do what you want Abe, but
The next time you see me comin’ you better run”
Well Abe says, “Where do you want this killin’ done?”
God says, “Out on Highway 61”

Another fairly famous Abe.

F Murray Abraham was cast to play Abe Froeman. Original screenplay had the character showing up for his reservation, causing Ferris and company to hastily depart the restaurant and almost get caught by Mr Beuhler. Sadly, the scene ended getting cut for the sake of time.

Actually true
