How I loved Don Knotts. What a facile, unique talent he was.
There aren't many like him any more -- Tim Conway and Jonathan Winters have retreated into near retirement. Robin Williams is about the only one out there young enough to continue to provide us with that quirky quickness, that off-the-wall spontaneity. Don Knotts will forever be Deputy Fife, and none of us who grew up watching him and Andy Griffith will ever forget him.
Bless your heart, Don.

And who can forget some of his best later work on Three's Company, as Mr Furley, the ambiguously gay landlord.
And his work on Mr Peepers, and on Hollywood Squares? Sublime. No wait, that was Wally Cox, nevermind.
