He was one of my favorite comedians, both as Barney and Mr. Furley from Three's Company... It's a shame...

That is a shame. He was a really funny actor, I don't think I've ever seen him play a part that wasn't funny. At least he had a long life and made some really funny movies and TV shows. I guess I'll just have to get ahold of some copies of the Andy Griffith Show and watch them again.

I thought this thread was going to refer to Barney the Purple Dinosaur going off air.

A list of some of his movies:
*The Incredible Mr.Limpid:Knotts played a office worker who turns into a fish and helps defeats the Nazis in WW2.

*The Shakiest Gun In The West:Played a dentist on a wagon train mistaken for a
notorious gunslinger(it was the girl he falls for that was the actual gunslinger).

*The Ghost And Mr. Chicken:In it he plays the heir of an estate who has to stay in a haunted house to get his inheritance.

*The Apple Dumpling Gang:Co-starred Tim Conway as a couple of bumbling bandits.

Fittingly according to the paper Andy Griffith was among his last visitors before he passed.

Ralph Furley was always being bullied by his brother Bart.

I believe he played the TV repairman in Pleasantville. You know, the movie about the kids stuck in a "Leave it to Beaver"-style TV show. I hear that's an interesting movie. Has anyone here seen it, and is it suitable for Christian viewing?
