    He was the perfect voice for Stu Pickles. He just had the right "dad" voice that fit the character so well.

      His comedic tone with his voice was also perfect for a whacky inventor

    I was lucky to work with Jack Riley once on a commercial. A nice person and a truly great comedic actor.

    Like many people, I first knew about Jack Riley from him playing Stu Pickles on Rugrats all those years ago. He was great as Elliott Carlin on Newhart, and he also made a legendary appearance on Rowan and Martins Laugh In, where he did a memorable appearance impersonating Lyndon B. Johnson. I miss Jack Riley very much. ❤

    Jack Riley had the perfect "every man" demeanor, combined with hilarious downbeat fatalism. He added the perfect touch to The Bob Newhart Show. I loved him.

    I’ll really miss him as both Stu Pickles and the male voiceover for the Country Crocker commercials.

      I was a kid when I first saw those commercials, I vividly remember saying to my parents “that’s Tommy’s dad!” I think that was the first time in my life I realized what a voice actor was.

    Im glad you mentioned Country Crock. We always figured he was showing Carlin's secret warm side.

    When he came on the scene with the Bob Newhart show as Elliot Carlin we then had a double dose of Carlins George and Elliot😆!

    And don’t forget those hilarious Comp USA radio commercials. He, along with the guy who played the interviewer, were the funniest thing on radio.

    @Vlad65WFPReviews 2 года назад +5

    Thanks. I was a massive Jack Riley fan since his Mr Carlin days. I particularly love his interplay with Mr Peterson - such as when they got drunk together, Peterson slept on his couch - and then Carlin sobered up and wanted to charge him rent. Great, great, great character and performances.

    My favorite exchange between Jerry and Carlin on The Bob Newhart Show:
    Carlin: "How's your choppers?"
    Jerry: "How's your head?"

    So many comedic talents whose works go unnoticed due to being more known for performances behind the camera.

    Very well done video, didn't know he was the voice of the country crock guy. And missed him in Seinfeld, glad you were able to compile all those clips and pay respect to a funny guy.

  • @kencoleman5007
    @kencoleman5007 3 года назад +7

    Country Crock commercials too. I'm not sure how many actors get a second act as voice actors playing someone half their age, His Country Crock character seemed so much like Stu Pickles, that I thought he was in his late 20's or early 30's at the time.

      It depends on the condition of their voice.

    He also sang in the Pasadena Playhouse production of Richard Rodgers & Stephen Sondheim's musical DO I HEAR A WALTZ? He doesn't have a stand-alone solo or bit, but you can definitely hear him in the ensemble pieces! The cast album is available on cd, BTW.

    Mr Carlin was the best foil for Dr Hartley. But I didn't know Jack Riley was the voice over for Country Crock spread.

    Bob (drunk): What do you want, Mr. Carlin?

      @kali3665 That's from one of my favorite episodes! If I remember right it was Thanksgiving and Emily was out of town so the guys got together to watch football. They all got drunk, burnt the turkey and ordered a ton of Chinese food.

    I'm surprised Jack Riley wasn't in the obituaries pages of the 2017 World Almanac. I predicted he would be in there because of fellow Rugrats voice actor David Doyle and fellow Bob Newhart Show actress Marcia Wallace.

    Everybody over hypes the Freemans, Blacks, Pratts, Swifts, and Reeves so often they take for granted the Dillers, Keaches, Bennetts, Moroffs, Rosses, Molls, Taylors, Arnolds, Rileys, and Colemans. Whatever happened to a steady of diet giving everybody a chance?
