What a classic case of ‘one joke to rule them all,’ Bob Newhart has shuffled off this mortal coil, leaving us with a lifetime of one-liners that made us think we were the ones with the punchline. As for his deadpan delivery, it was as dry as a dusty accountant’s day-to-day, but who are we to judge? After all, he did manage to guest-host Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show 87 times. That’s more than most people can say about their phone conversations, let alone their careers. His ‘Button-Down Mind’ certainly clicked with the masses, though, with seven albums to prove it. And who could forget his timeless portrayal of an elf and a physicist? It’s like he was the Santa of stand-up comedy, bringing joy to audiences through the ages. Rest in peace, Mr. Newhart, but may your dry humor never be dry-cleaned from the hearts of your fans.
