Hello, Larry Season 1 Open

[clearcoat2000]

Hello Larry. Goodbye McLean Stevenson. After he quit M.A.S.H his career went into the toilet.

[mozellagi]

from the opening credits you could tell they wanted to spend exactly $4.00 on this production and let McLean carry it.... too bad

[mphs95]

Does anyone what George Memmoli died of? I have a good what but there is nothing on it on the net

[krantzbar]

@mphs95 complication from preparing for gastic bypass surgery/ mass heart attack . this was in the very early stages of gastric bypass surgery's and he was to fast for two days and I guess it was to much for his body to handle. I miss him very much he was a good man.

[krantzbar]

@mphs95 FYI One of George's last shows was "Hill street blues"

[Budnotes]

@mphs95 George was my Uncle and he died of a heart-attack in May 1986.

[MattTheSaiyan]

I don't care how bad this show was, it should be on DVD.

[ivegotalongdong]

who was that fat fuck? OMFG

[krantzbar]

@ivegotalongdong That guy was George Memmoli, and for your knowledge he was one of the nicest men I ever met, helped me out when I was growing up. Taught me the true meaning of what a friend should be. So from me to you "shove that long dong of yours up your ass you fuckin low life with no respect.

[ivegotalongdong]

@krantzbar wow. what a showing of respect. i am sure that George would be proud of you. i's shove it up your ass, but i think you'd like that too much

[MoondogMayne]

Ah yes, Hello Larry. One of Fred Silverman's finest creations and the subject of many of the original Saturday Night Live shows parodies. And with good reason.

[WhatsAYak]

George Memmoli died in 1985...in fact, they're still burying him today! LOL

[yaggazoozy]

Thats about as funny as Brain Cancer.

[krantzbar]

@WhatsAYak I knew George and even though I don't like all the rude comments he would think this one was funny...FYI George died two days before he was to have gastric bypass surgery and I miss him very much to this day...

[WhatsAYak]

@krantzbar - I can imagine...meant my comment solely in fun, and I'm sure George (God rest his soul) was a great guy.

[indyfan22k]

@WhatsAYak WOW !!!! That has me laughing out loud.

[jeffreywolfe2008]

So Frasier stole it's premise from Hello, Larry. Seriously?

[WhatsAYak]

Wow, never thought of that...radio host living in the Pacific Northwest, producer's an attractive woman, the title character's father lives w/him (@ least during HL's second season, anyway)...one of TV's most successful sitcoms of the 90s ripped off a short-lived sitcom from 15 years earlier? Who would've thought??

[WhatsAYak]

I'm now getting an amusing image in my head of McLean Stevenson standing outside the NBC Studios in Burbank sometime in 1994, shouting "What does Kelsey Grammer have that I don't?!"...LOL

[palmercomm]

This proves 2 things:

1. McLean Stevenson should've never left M*A*S*H.

2. Don't rely on crossovers to save a series (even if the crossover involves Gary Coleman).

[Breeslave]

Yes he left mash for this shit. Eventhough I like shows about Radio and TV.

[megamanj2007]

Even though this show kinda blows, I liked the catchy music in the credits.

[Winninginbusiness]

Actually, this is cool because seeing Donna Wilkes is so rare since she left acting. She is very beautiful and talented.

[kfkirves]

Kim Richards is Paris Hilton's Aunt....

[needles1987]

I wonder if she even talks to Paris' mom anymore.

[needles1987]

McLean Stevenson is awesome!!

[palmercomm]

I agree. The show stank, but McLean was awesome! Should've given the series to Larry Linville.
