I know I'm going away from my usual Reality TV pistings, but due to the sadness of the loss of one of the greatest comic Actors ever, I had to post one off story.
Leslie Nielson, known for his COmedic roles in The Naked Gun and Airplane died on Sunday due to complications from Pneumonia. He was 84.
After a start of dramatic roles in the 50s, 60s, and 70s, Nielson burst onto the Comedic scene in the 1980 Classic Airplane! This led to the Short-lived TV Series Police Squad, and the 1988 film The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad and it's Sequels.
During the 90s, Nielson starred in more comedic films, that weren't as sucessful as his Naked Gun days, but they were still funnys. Films such as Mr. Magoo, 2001: A Space Travesty, Wrongfully Accused, and Spy Hard. In 2003, he had a role as President Harrid in Scary Movie 3, as well as the same role in Scary Movie 4.
He was surrounded by his Wife and Family members when he died.
