Sad to see him go, the Christopher Guest mockumentaries wouldn't have been the same without him.

Bummer to hear of this. His performance in Best In Show is a crack up.

I didn't realise he did a voice in Transformers, even if it was one of their brief cameo name-actors in Animated. When I read about his death this morning, I recognised his face from Everybody Loves Raymond (which repeats a lot here), as the really religious father of Ray's brother's wife.


It makes me want to rewatch Animated again... I can't believe it has been 11 years next week since the Animated cartoon came to an abrupt end (in America).
