-He was in some funny movies but the movies were funny, not him.-

He was a straight man, the foil who made the joke work.

Did anyone ever think he was funny? He was in some funny movies but the movies were funny, not him.

Jack Benny didn't tell many jokes either.

Did anyone think he was funny?!?! Oh my, he was the funniest one always. No one delivered a deadpan line better.

KRIP, Leslie. (Keep resting in peace.)

He guaranteed laughter in those Naked again movies. To the point where if you were offered $1 million for watching one without laughing it would have been close to impossible to win.

Leslie Nielsen died in a hospital. It’s a big building with patients, but that’s not important right now.

I love Leslie Nelson. He was hilarious. The person I was referring to was Chevy Chase.

I was responding to dfwgator post 31. Sorry about the confusion.

If you love Naked Gun/Police Squad--you really need to check out "Angie Tribeca" on TBS. It's bringing the humor back, and I love it!

I was a fan of

Reminds me of the joke/insult you could say about a mental opponent:

“They’re the kind of person, when they read, you can see their lips move.”

“Yeah, so?”

“At a Stop sign.”
