Now who is Mel going to watch JEOPARDY with? (Y'know, if and when JEOPARDY starts back up again)

I believe Carl's passing leaves the intensely focused actress and dancer Barrie Chase as the only surviving credited cast member from It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.

Reiner told the story on Johnny Carson about when he and Mel Brooks were walking down the street in New York and three nuns were approaching in the opposite direction.



Carl turned to him and just said, "Mel..........don't." The perfect straight man.



And the Allan Brady toupee episode is some of the funniest TV ever.

Carl Reiner thrilled to meet a former Met, and vice-versa.

That was great. Hershiser feels kinda plastic, but you can't fault what he gets out of the visit.



Hey, I just realized that if you scroll back up to that It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World gif, you can see Sylvester's junk on his third and fourth thrust off the floor.
