Leslie Nielsen Has Passed Away

Very sad to hear. I actually did feel a slight pang when the TV presenter announced the news this morning. Leslie Nielsen was just someone who had always been around, I don't think I'll ever forget the first time I saw The Naked Gun as a kid. It was the most hilarious, ridiculous thing I had ever seen (and along with the original Police Squad! it probably still is). He had the rare ability to make me smile no matter what.

Stuart, be sure to see his films as soon as possible. You won't regret it.
 
I was gutted when I found out, was quite bad timing as well, having just got in from a hospital visit. Am watching Police Squad now to honour him.

@Sparrowsabre read about that one as well. That's the thing about our generation, which is sad when you think about it. We'll see the passing of all the current hollywood crop. We'll see the action movie stars like Governor Arnold and Sy Stallone disappear. We'll see legends like Michael Caine, and Clint Eastwood go. Sucks to be us don't it.
 
RIP. Last thing I watched him in was Due South but I'll always remember him for Police Squad.
