RIP Tom Bosley.  :-(
A Big Rich Fields Drew Carey And Jeff Davis Fan For Ever From Kirsten

Rich Fields Thanks Kirsten. I pick out and supply all of my own clothing. That light gray suit is hard to pair with shirts and ties... but I think the lavender shirt and purple patterned tie pulled it all together.

My Favorite Announcers On The Price Is Right Are Johnny Olson Rod Roddy Rich Fields Jeff Davis.

I Met And Took Two Pictures With Jeff Davis On May 24, 2012 He Is So Nice And Kind In Person.

Rich Fields said this about Drew Carey will always be the first to defend Drew (Carey). He's one of the most genuine, down to earth people in Hollywood that I've ever met. He was the first to come to me and tell me that the show was going in a different direction. He assured me it was not his decision to let me go and I believe him. No one else was open and honest about it, but Drew was. We've continued working together on different projects and we stay in regular touch. We'll be good friends well into the future.

Ouch. I was just getting into Tom's work on Happy Days through the Hub reruns. At least now Tom's work can be introduced to a new generation of fans.

RIP Mr. Cunningham.  :-(

Before becoming Mr. Cunningham, Bosley was Harry Boyle in the syndicated cartoon Wait Till Your Father Gets Home.

Tom and his wife  Jean were on Tattletales in 1975, and the question to the husbands was this: "Which do you recall first--your first sexual encounter or the latest?" Jean said the first ("because we broke the bed!"). Tom was brought on the monitor and his response: "I've been in show business for over thirty years, and when you're in a hit show, you remember your opening line."
"No man is exempt from saying silly things; the mischief is to say them deliberately."

Kind of predicted this, similarly to Billingsley's, but nonetheless

:( :( :(

I also liked him a lot in the vastly underrated Father Dowling Mysteries.  And of course let us also give a salute to his voice work as David the Gnome (which makes it only appropriate to close this post, as David would, by saying, "Schlitzweitz.").

I most remember him playing the role of Sheriff Amos Tupper on Murder, She Wrote. Anyways he'll be sadly missed. RIP Tom.  :cry:
