I liked Gottfried. He was always getting in trouble for making politically insensitive and inappropriate jokes which was when he was at his best. You pick it, Me Too, race, ethnicity, homosexuality and he was always picking at it.

Just sampled his humor on utube. We are all better off that he is dead.

I remember the time he cohosted the MTV video awards in 1991 or 92..PeeWee Herman had just had his ridiculous arrest in Fla and Gottfried shrieked..”if masturbation was a crime,I’d be on death row”

I first noticed Gottfried when he and Rhonda Shear hosted USA UP! All Night. It featured B movies that were so bad they were actually funny. The hosts made jokes during the breaks.

Oh, I definitely remember Rhonda Shear.

It used to be a comedian would go after anyone and everyone, but that doesn’t happen so much anymore outside white straight males.

And that generation of comedians is rapidly becoming extinct.

Wasn’t he “canceled” for something?

He was very funny on a “Wings” episode, too.

RIP - really funny guy. He showed up on Svengoolie a number of times and was always a blast.

Gilbert & his wife were on Celebrity Wife Swap with Mr & Mrs Alan Thicke. The Gottfrieds came across as nicer & not stuck-up.

He portrayed the villain ‘Nick Nack’ on the FOX ‘Superboy’ series back in the late 80’s...

He got fired off of AFLAC for the tsunami joke, but they later brought him back.
