Elvira replaced Larry Vincent (the GREAT Seymour) in Southern California after he died. I remember “Fright Night” came on around midnight and everyone watched it.

He was also the grand marshal in our local parade.

Quentin Tarentino memorialized Seymour in “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.” I almost jumped out of the theater seat when I saw him, it had been so long.

I was just about to mention the best of all time. I;m glad you did.

There can be only one.

I watched “Seymour Present”s every Saturday night (if I’m correct on the day.) I loved that show when I was a kid. I wish I could find parts of his old shows on YouTube or something.

Yes, you nailed it.
Seymour WAS great!!
First, he was on channel 9 in LA, then moved over to KTLA, channel 5. He had crappier movies at channel 9, so, in a way, was funnier. I read somewhere his videotaped programs were not kept, but recorded over. Too bad, he really was special!!
