Today NPR's Terry Gross, replayed an interview with Leslie Nielson, very entertaining.

I loved Forbidden Planet. Growing up, my dad was always trying to press Airplane! on me. He was a talented guy.

Multiple tears of laughter have been shed because of him. May he rest in peace.

X2 on "Forbidden Planet." Unfortunately, I hadn't seen it until a few years back. I was living in Oregon and one of the local single-screen theaters would show a classic once a month. "Forbidden Planet" came up and I went. Wish I had seen it earlier, but it was awesome on the big screen. It's almost like the first Star Trek episode - sci-fi with an intellectual bent. Highly recommended and a great opportunity to see Leslie play it straight.

his style of comedy was often lost on younger audiences.

 

but in his own way, he was special.

 

see you live at the great laughter factory in the clouds, Leslie.

He will be missed.  Who remembers him and Ted Danson in 'Creepshow'?
