  • Fred Willard: The Funniest Straight Man
    A Fond Farewell. He was that rare kind of actor who, whenever he turned up, always made you think: "This is gonna be good!"

    He was the best part of the Christopher Guest movies imo. My favourite line of his "You know what they say about blind prostitutes? You really have to hand it to them!"

    A comedy god. Completely offensive with a thick armor of congeniality.

    Fred Willard had a knack for ending up as one of the most memorably funny characters in everything he was in.

    Best in Show is a movie I can watch over and over. Fred Willard was great.

    He's at his peak in the Fernwood Tonight TV show with Martin Mull. The episode with Tom Waits is a classic!!!

    Fred Willard played "Fred Willard" in every movie like John Wayne played "John Wayne"...and I'll watch every last one of them.

    You should have added in some Fernwood 2-Nite stuff. He was a master of dead-pan... he had a line once where he said something like, "During World War 2, you could kill as many Germans as you liked... but boy, you do that nowadays and you're in a lot of hot water." He says it so innocently that it's 100 times funnier.

    I remember when he was bicoastal, that is, if you consider the Mississippi River a coast.

    Just to be clear, Fred is not the “straight man” in these roles. In comedy, the straight man is the “serious” one while the other guy is all the funnier for it. In the Smothers Brothers, Dick was the straight man.
