I loved watching him introduce movies on TMC. He was so knowledgeable.

Well, at least he won’t have to put up with Sally Field anymore.
RIP, Bob. You were great.
To: CaptainK

There have been many famous movie critics, but he was a true movie lover. He will be missed by millions, including me.

Sometimes Mr. Osborne’s commentary was more enjoyable than watching the film itself. God bless you and may you rest in peace.

Had a great voice, was very knowledgeable, was decent to his guests and never seemed to have an agenda other than promoting the viewing of the film he was highlighting. There are far too few like Robert Osborne on the tube these days or in the Hollywood he followed.

Very well said! Never hear anything political (that I’m aware of) on TMC. It’s what makes it so special.
To: CaptainK
RIP.
TCM is something I can watch ALL DAY.

That was always the don’t miss part. He always could tell you something you didn’t know.
To: CaptainK
Bummer! I loved him...so much better than Clooney. Charming, soft-spoken, great breadth of knowledge. Quite a loss...

RIP Robert. I knew he had been missing lately on TCM and I wondered about his health. I am saddened by his departure. I’m going to have to take some dammital and go to bed.
