This one hurts too… I grew up watching Bob Newhart comedies on TV and now the legendary comedian has passed away at age 94.. Today is an especially shitty day.

Newhart began his career as a stand-up comedian before launching a hugely successful acting career. His deadpan delivery and trademark stammering made him a comic sensation.
