Wow, was surprised by this news. When I saw tributes on IMDb, I honestly thought "Wow, Garry doesn't get enough recognition but this is nice". Then saw the headline.

RIP

Really not familiar with him at all, but I know he's apparently a big name in US comedy (Gervais likes him a lot).

Are these death notices becoming like "The Daily Show"? I think I'll become a chord cutter

EDIT: Man. I am Tired of Dead Stars. Eat Your Parsley! But first, liquify it in a blender with a cup of water. Then let it sit on the counter for 12 hrs. If it turns red-brown with a reek and a smell of piss, then throw it out. That Parsley is tainted.
The good stuff is firm, never limp and is bright or solid green. It should keep in the fridge for Months, which is why it can be dehydrated. You can also test green-leafy veggies the same way. The good quality produce will not turn into a pool of slimy piss.

Well. That's all.

He was just on Jerry Seinfeld's 'Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee' back in January on an episode called:

“It's Great That Garry Shandling Is Still Alive”.

Try it ASAP, way ahead of its time and still hilarious. Think of BTS of the Tonight Show with all the celebrities playing ridiculous versions of themselves. And as Shandling is fantastic in it. It really saved HBO until The Sopranos came along.

Farewell!

Just listened to a rerun of the Stern show they did where he was the guest. It was during the Ironman 2 release/dvd series release. Anyway, it was a great interview. I've never got into his show previously but I don't think I had HBO either so kind of hard to. The series is on sale for 20$ on dvd, so I bought that and look forward to checking that out.
