    I had no idea. I'll miss that glorious mustache. The weight rests on Tom Selleck now...

      No one will ever be able to contend with Tom's 'stache as far as I am concerned.

      Norm as Burt Reynolds on jeopardy is some of the best work SNL has done! There are at least a few more instances. Thanks for sharing this!

    Cannonball Run is one of my favorite movies ever. Someone should assemble an all-star cast of Hollywood A-listers to race across the country to get to Burt's funeral.

    RIP. The man was a certified heartthrob in his day. A little before my time but I've seen (and enjoyed) some of his movies. Norm Macdonald's impression is legendary too but I find it a bit sad...

    RIP. The man was a certified heartthrob in his day. A little before my time but I've seen (and enjoyed) some of his movies. Norm Macdonald's impression is legendary too but I find it a bit sad that, in my mind at least, it has overshadowed the real Burt. When I heard the news he had died, the Celebrity Jeopardy skit was the first thing that came to mind.
