I cleaned it up. That's what happens when you post from your phone with a lousy connection.

He was very funny.

He reprised his role of Count Floyd for Rush's Grace Under Pressure tour (1984) and introduced the song, The Weapon

Damn I forgot the Rush connection - that's the only tour that I saw them live. Pretty scary stuff, eh kids?

 

RIP

Thank you for your contribution to the entertainment industry.

The farm film reports with John Candy were always fantastic - blowed up real good!

I really enjoyed SCTV for many years.

 

Joe played a lot of great characters.

 

The Shmenge Brothers was a favorite, but it was Eugene Levy playing polkas with John Candy. Each brother pronounced Shmenge in a different way.

SCTV's parody of 'Goin' Down the Road'.  Jayne Eastwood reprises her role from the original movie.

The left looks at the Constitution and sees "This is what I FEEL it means", not the actual words on the parchment.

 

Wrong thread?

Sorry. Was looking at this thread before trying to post on PPP. Must have hit the  wrong tab.

...He Died!! RIP Mr. Weir.

I remember Joe’s character Rocco, who was a thug trying to learn about the finer things, like Modern Art.
