Better Living Through Television

I’d already edited clips for her 100th birthday celebration next month, but what better time to be reminded of how she made us laugh? Whether you knew her as Sue Ann or Rose, or from Match Game, The Carol Burnett Show or her myriad other credits, everyone adores Betty White.

Open the schools.

Remember when Conan locked Bob Newhart in an airtight container so the Emmys wouldn’t run over 3 hours? Still maybe the funniest thing I’ve ever seen on an awards show. RIP Bob

Listen to (and watch) the lyrics of #TheBobNewhartShow on #NickAtNite - part of our #TelevisionHeritage. #BobNewhart #Newhart #SuzannePleshette #BillDaily #NickAtNiteNerd #NickAtNite1994 #classicTV #nostalgia

One of my all-time favorite #Newhart moments (can't imagine why) - but coincidentally, also one of the best character moments of the series from Peter Scolari - who gets to show Michael as vulnerable for once, but still with trademark comedic timing. #PeterScolari (1/2)

Second most important man in my life. Glad they're together but I feel so alone now. #RIPBOB. How I will miss being teased. I love you.💔

Happiest of birthdays to @BobNewhart, who turned 92 this weekend. Here's a #NickAtNite promo from the week of March 17, 1997 when #Newhart was added to the lineup alongside #TheBobNewhartShow. Episodes of 1992's "Bob" were also aired as part of the marathon. #BobNewhart

1993 #NickAtNite just hit differently - take this Better Living Through Bob promo when #TheBobNewhartShow was added to to the lineup in September of that year. I miss Dr. Will.

Not sure where to even begin to this one. This man’s acting, comedic timing and writing have been an inspiration to me for four decades. Tremendous talent. Rest, Bob.

Indubitably!

Persistently annoying new neighbor kid means I can finally ascend to my final form.

Summer insomnia? Why not spend it with late night Laverne and Shirley? #NickatNite, 1998

There’s more to life than being cool, athletic and popular - #TheWonderYears on #NickAtNite.

In addition to wishing for a classic Nick at Nite style “channel” on Paramount+ , i wish there was a classic lineup for classic Comedy Central.

We lost Adam West on this date, seven years ago.
