So glad he gave up accounting. I'm still amazed that it took his part on The Big Bang Theory to gain an Emmy.

Apparently a good bowler as well.

Wow! Had been thinking about him all week for some reason! RIP!

His variety show in the early 60s won the Best Comedy Emmy and a Peabody Award in it's only season.

His best sitcom episode is probably The Bob Newhart Show's "Death Be My Destiny," in which his Dr. Bob Hartley tries to get over a near-death experience.

It was very nice that he got his late swan song in the very popular Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon.

Devastating. Just Devastating. The Bob Newhart show is one of the greatest sitcoms I've watched. Bob was a top tier dry humor specialist. May he rest in paradise and bring laughter to those on the other side!

The entertainment world has lost a comedic genius in Bob Newhart. He was best known for his comedy albums that began with The Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart and his sitcoms that showed his low-key, dead pan humor. If you have never seen any of his sitcoms, same to you fella. He will be missed.
