I remember him as Stephanie Vanderkellen’s boyfriend on Newhart, RIP.
You know what I going to ask...well?
I remember him as Stephanie Vanderkellen’s boyfriend on Newhart, RIP.
Yup, seemed like a nice guy and was very funny in his “Biff” sort of role on the show.
RIP, Sir.
He was really funny. And a good juggler.
RIP
That’s sad. I never watched Bosom Buddies but I did enjoy him on Newhart.
Hi, I’m Larry and this is my brother Darryl and this is my other brother Darryl.
Always talked in song lyrics.
Peter Scolari was funny. Not a hugely visible actor but loaded with talent.
He may have played the first modern pajama boy (Michael) as the TV producer of Vermont Today on Newhart.
Ping. A sad one for your list.

Funny guy. RIP.
I didn’t think I’d like the show “Bosom Buddies”, thinking the premise was just too weird. It turned out to be a very funny show, with no agenda. R.I.P. Peter Scolari.
RIP, Peter.
I do too. That was a truly great show. The character development for each actor was just tremendous. Scolari played the part perfectly of a typical 80s yuppie me first conceited individual.
Of Hanks and Scolari, Scolari was the talented one. RIP.
He was great on “Newhart.”
Dang that is young!!
RIP
My wife and I watched Bosom Buddies. We thought Scolari was the one who would break out and make it big. Good show.
