alot of us here at sitcoms online myself inculded are very excited about betty white;s upcoming snl hosting stint in may because it seemes that almost eveyone loves betty but it got me to thinking about a man i knew that lived in one of the retirement homes that my mother used to own and how this man could not stand ether betty white or bob barker and i was wondering are there any living older tv or movie stars and bby that i mean the ones who have been on tv or in movies for 30 years or more that even though we are subcouncusly told to like and admire them for ther accomplishments and longevity you just dont like them no matter how hard you try for me the 2 on the list are gloria stuart and even though i enjoyed our hose as a series i cant stand wilford brimley in interviews or anything else , what older actors or personalties grate on your nerves

Why do I have the feeling I will name somebody and then within a few weeks they will unfortunately pass on?

All right, I'm not that superstitious, let me think.

Wilford Brimley is a good one to dislike--just check out the IMDB comments about him

I'll have to say Don Rickles, although I have developed a different opinion of him as of late. Early on during his career I couldn't stand him for how he seemed to insult everyone.

Jerry Van dyke - Dick Van Dyke's brother.

I don't like him because one time I saw an old Geraldo show episode in which Jerry Van Dyke had an illegitimate son who is African American. His son said that he has never met his sperm donor father even though he tried sending him messages. Jerry completly ignores him. What a piece of turd!

i've never cared for Bob Newhart, he just annoys me. I've also never cared for Don Rickels or Rodney Dangerfield.
