He was great on Newhart and in general a great actor! May he RIP. Too young.

I remember seeing somewhere (on Oprah: Where Are They Now maybe) that Peter and Tom maintained a strong friendship over the years.

RIP Peter Scolari

Peter also played the Rick Moranis role in the TV adaptation of Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. I remember first discovering reruns of it on the Hub (now Discovery Family) when it started back in 2010.

This is shocking news and very sad.

RIP Peter Scolari

Bob Newhart calls his Newhart co-star Scolari's death "a great shock": “I knew that Peter was sick, but his death still comes as a great shock,” Newhart said in a statement. “We were friends and colleagues for over 40 years. Julia and Peter, as a vacuous couple (Michael and Stephanie), were an essential part of the success of ‘Newhart.’ In life, he was a fantastic person, and it was a joy to work together. He will be sorely missed and his passing at 66 is much too early.”
Celebrities pay tribute to Scolari, including Julia Duffy, who played his wife on Newhart
