His comedic genius was on full display, playing Professor Proton on The Big Bang Theory...not to mention, The Bob Newhart Show and Newhart!

Great cast of characters…just like Newhart. The finale of Newhart was brilliant!

I like him on the Dean Martin Show. To be honest, I didn't know he was still alive, I just assumed... well.

He was a comedic icon for a lot of us growing up. He made it to 93 years of age, which is a pretty good run.

His humor transcended many generations. His level of humor is hard to find these days.
R.I.P. Mr. Newhart.

Lots of fond memories from the 70's through the 90's. One of the best straight men in the business. RIP Mr. Newhart.
