I will say that Burt Reynolds’ schtick got a little tiresome after a while, but deep down he seemed like a pretty grounded guy.
His movies were liked, his tv series ‘Evening Shade’ was watchable in its very short season. After Lonni came out with her book, Reynolds was holding on to his pedestal by his fingertips. He was ‘hot stuff, baby’ when he appeared in the centerfold pic eons ago Sad to see the state he’s in these days.
