Quote:

Comedian Bob Newhart was a pioneer of observational humor, imparting his deadpan delivery on award-winning comedy albums and classic TV sitcoms. Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz sits down with the 91-year-old Newhart, who believes having a sense of humor is not just business, it's essential, especially now.

I saw it and it was fairly good.

However, he's clearly getting up there in years- and someone needs to tell him that dyeing what little hair he has isn't convincing anyone that he's still in his salad days instead of being within sight of the compost heap. I mean even when he WAS young, he wasn't a 'leading man' type so what harm would it do for him to just let himself go grey?
