His timing was superb. He could fill out a 'pregnant pause' with glances and mis-starts, building tension while the audience starts mentally filling in the reply, so when he actually gives the reply the audience gets an endorphin release.

Did somebody check to make sure he wasn't buried alive in a box?
|
Guess we will start seeing reruns soon. I'll be sure to time in
|
RIP Bob.
|
Damn! Thanks for all the laughs. RIP

Very unique sense of humor. An original OG.
God speed Mr Newhart. |
RIP Bob You were one of the best comedians of all time...

One of my favorites. Loved his stand-up and his shows.
Him and Don Rickles together were hilarious. |
RIP Bob you were great. Man, everyone is keeling over this year. :(

Damn, loved Bob Newhart!

RIP to a comedy icon. Bob was also responsible for many a hangover from playing the "Hi Bob" game as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi,_Bob

I used to watch the Newhart show with my father, I did not get his jokes until I got older, I do not care much for Newhart but he was a great actor and person, rest in peace Mr. Newhart

94…. What a run. Thank you Bob for all the laughs throughout the years. It’s already been stated here and elsewhere what a tremendous wit and gift for timing this guy had in the comedy game.
Dude was best buds with Don Rickles, and while the two couldn’t have been more different in style, the two performed together for years back in the day, and their stuff is incredible. To be a fly on the wall with those two… And has been said here already, the final episode, or more precisely, the final sequence from his 80’s/90’s sitcom Newhart is positively the gold standard on how to pull off a series finale. It won’t be topped. Absolute legend. RIP. |
