Gilbert Gottfried passed away

Oddly him, Norm and Bob I think were all really good friends.
They absolutely were but everybody was good friends with Norm. There were things about Norm that he kept under wraps to preserve his career but have kind of leaked out since his death.
 
Had the perfectly annoying yet charming voice...somehow it worked and we'll miss it. RIP.

And it was all part of the act. Go watch one of his old SNL clips and prepare to be amazed. I don’t know how he figured it out, but his stand-up was pummeling you with jokes while he pummeled you with the voice. I’m a late arrival to fandom, but really fell in love with his work over the last few years.

Some his roasts are maybe the funniest things I've ever seen. Just incredible cadence and timing. You know it's funny when you see actual comedians rolling on the floor.

 
Listened to his broadcast on comedy channel on Sirius radio. Outstanding at deflecting commits about him or others.
 
Man, I just saw him on the Masked Singer, was it last week or the week before? He wasn't a singer, but he did a cameo for one of the singers, who is or was a friend of his.
 
They always had him on MTV Spring Break in the 90s. He was totally out of place with all the bikini girls but I remember thinking he was hilarious, at least to my 12-16 year old sense of humor.
 
This was what i always associated with him along with alladin. I could never tell if the squares had the correct answers in front of them.
I'm pretty sure they were provided with the correct answers as well as a joke from the writers if they wanted to use it because even the dimwitted stars seemed to find something to say after ever question.
