    Yeah, that's a real shame. I remember him in Show of Shows. He and Imogene Coca were great...mostly pantomimes.
    That was in the days of Ernie Kovaks and many of the black and white TV crowd.

    It always goes in threes - Philip Seymour Hoffman, Shirley Temple, Cid Caesar.

    Meh, Philip Seymour Hoffman isn't even in the same league as Shirley Temple Black and Sid Caesar. He was a talented actor. They were GREAT.

    Aw, what a great American funny man... I will always remember him in History of the World, Part 1, and I just saw, he played the goofy old dude in Vegas Vacation:
