  • It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of the legendary comedian Bob Newhart.

    Bob Newhart's journey to stardom was unconventional and inspiring. His story is a testament to the power of perseverance and natural talent. When he was 30, Bob was still living with his parents and working as an accountant. Despite his unassuming appearance and halting speech pattern, he quickly rose to national fame with his understated comedy routines.

    His debut comedy album, "The Buttoned Down Mind of Bob Newhart," was a groundbreaking success. It topped the recordings of industry giants like Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley to secure the number one spot on the Billboard charts for 14 weeks in 1960. This remarkable feat earned Bob a Grammy and recognition as the first comedian to achieve such a milestone. Moreover, he remains the only comedian to this day to win Grammy Awards for Best New Artist and Album of the Year.

    Bob Newhart is perhaps best known for two long-running sitcoms: "The Bob Newhart Show" and "Newhart." "The Bob Newhart Show," which aired on CBS from 1972 to 1978, featured Bob as a Chicago psychologist navigating the quirks of his patients. Suzanne Plachette played his wife, and their childless relationship was a deliberate choice by Bob to avoid the stereotypical sitcom tropes of the time.

    "Newhart," which aired from 1982 to 1990, was another critical success. The series finale of "Newhart" remains one of the most memorable television moments, as Bob's character wakes up beside Suzanne Plachette's character from "The Bob Newhart Show," revealing the entire series as a dream.

    Bob Newhart's impact on comedy and television is undeniable. He was awarded the prestigious Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, a fitting recognition for a man whose work has influenced generations of comedians. A favorite anecdote among fans involves Richard Pryor confessing to Bob that he had stolen a copy of "The Buttoned Down Mind of Bob Newhart" from a record store in Peoria, Illinois. Pryor humorously settled the debt years later by handing Bob a quarter, the royalty payment Bob would have earned from the album.

    Bob Newhart's legacy will undoubtedly endure for generations to come. His timeless comedy and groundbreaking achievements have cemented his place in entertainment history. As we remember Bob, let us celebrate the laughter and joy he brought into our lives. Rest in peace, Bob. You will be missed but never forgotten.
