That was a beautiful episode.

From TV Guide's Peter Boyle page:
* Was a monk in the Christian Brothers order during college.

* Turned down the role of Popeye Doyle in The French Connection (1971), which went on to win Gene Hackman an Oscar. An uncredited Gene Hackman appears opposite Boyle in Young Frankenstein (1974).

* Considers his role as the monster in Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein (1974) the highlight of his career.

* Met his wife, Loraine Alterman, on the set of Young Frankenstein (1974) when she interviewed him for Rolling Stone.

* Best man at his wedding was John Lennon. Boyle's first child was born two days after Lennon was murdered.

* Of the five regular cast members on Everybody Loves Raymond, he's the only one who didn't win an Emmy for his work on the show, although he was nominated seven times.

I loved him in Where the Buffalo Roam. He did a most excellent Lazlo.

I saw that about Joe Barbera on an Adult Swim slide last night. I was half asleep and got all confused because I thought he was already dead. But that was Hanna, wasn't it?

Will Hanna died back in 2001 at the ripe old age of 91.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

They both lived to be quite old men. Joe Barbera was 97, wasn't he?

Google News says he's 95, but, good night, at this point just round up to 100.

Mel Blanc was 81. Chuck Jones was 90.

It strikes me that animation may be the key to long life.
