I've been a big Newhart fan for decades. Wrote to him a couple years ago and he took the time to respond. I really appreciated that. Bob will be missed.

My heart hurts. What a legendary comic. RIP sir.

We were so fortunate to have a great man and a great comedian like Bob Newhart contribute to our culture.

I remember watching the closing scene of the finale of “Newhart” and my parents having to explain the joke. “The Bob Newhart Show” ended the month before I was born, but I came to love Bob for his later work.

[markstevens]

He had a long and good life, and we got good comedy for a long time. Thanks Bob! Onward!

[winnieanderson]

I hope when I die at 88+ people say "gone too soon". One of the few stars who was truly universally loved. Thanks for the many laughs Bob. And thank goodness for the video and audio recordings.

[ArizonaSquatch]

Thank you for the memories Bob. Very few like you in the history of American television. Classy. Funny. Honest. Rest In Peace.

Bob Newhart was a comic genius. There will never be another like him. This is so sad. Thanks for the many laughs, Bob!

I have many happy memories of watching Saturday night tv with my family. Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart, Carol Burnett. Thanks for all of the laughs, Mr. Newhart ❤
