Shocking news. Garry Shandling is dead at 66.
'The Larry Sanders Show' was nothing short of brilliant, redefining television comedy as we knew it. It is still redefining television.
I'm a long-time fan. I've followed him on Twitter for a long while, and saw him just a week or so ago on Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. He and Seinfeld discussed their shock at the death of Robin Williams, how a comedian's material dies with him, and their own creeping mortality. The episode is titled, 'It's Great That Garry Shandling Is Still Alive.'
Show some respect: no flipping.
