Sad to hear. He was especially good in: “No Way to Treat a Lady”

All of the actors/actresses I enjoyed are dying. It always saddens me. As a TCM fan I am constantly reminded of our mortality.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is one of my favorite films. A real gauntlet of a movie. I think all of the four lead roles (I think that apart from a waitress, there were only four actors) were nominated for an academy award. Segal was young then, he was a presence. Of course, Richard Burton was spellbinding.

I’ve enjoyed George Segal’s acting since seeing him in the movie “The Owl & The Pussycat” with Barbara Striesand.
Both had a good sense of humor and timing.

I was not a fan of his last show The Goldbergs.
The little I saw of it: Everybody on that show was YELLING!
I don’t recall yelling at home during the 1980’s. Not like that.
Also, each character on that show was obnoxious in their own way. Lot’s of sibling teasing going on.

The Longest Day, The Bridge at Remagen, the Terminal Man...

The latter movie is ironic, written by Michael Chrichton, where the author was fired from writing the screenplay because he varied too far away from his own novel.

Though truthfully, it deserves a remake with a sharper screenplay and more modern effects.

He was in the 70’s movie “Fun with Dick and Jane”. Unfortunately, he was co-starred with Jane Fonda (*spit*). It was a lot funnier than the awful remake with Jim Carrey.

He was a great actor, and a fantastic banjo picker.

RIP

It’s weird seeing him on the old Larry Sanders Show knowing that Garry Shandling proceeded him in death by four years and 21 birth years.

I love the “Maltese Falcon” spoof “The Black Bird” - he was perfectly cast for that role. It’s a shame the studio axed the plan of having him do a series of Sam Spade spoof movies.

He was also in The Hot Rock with Robert Redford. Not one of the big blockbusters that Redford was known for, but a dry comedy about a jewel heist that doesn’t really quite go according to plan. Segal had some great lines in that one, but Zero Mostel stole the show, as he usually did.

I liked him in Rollercoaster, from 1977. He starred alongside a young girl named Helen Hunt.

I liked him in the TV show Just Shoot Me. He was also good with Denzel Washington in Carbon Copy.
