Is this the way you'd treat your mother? Is this the kind of abuse that poor woman must endure?

I really miss Jim Varney.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

The feeling is mutual. He belongs to that same mural that includes Bob Ross, Steve Irwin, Mr. Rogers, and Jim Henson.

Jim Varney misses tenthrow?
Would never have guessed, but he was enamored with the guy.
I would like to see some of his Shakespearean work, too. I bet it was awesome!
Right, Vern?
OHHH GOOD FOR YOU
"Knowhattamean?"
I would have paid good money to see a slapstick buddy comedy with Jim Varney and Jim Carey. Imagine the hijinks...
Plus this wonderful man:
Why does it feel like they didn't exist in the same universe?
Not so much for me. I was watching the works of both growing up. They occupied different territory, most certainly. Williams' manic improvisation VS Varney's developed and consistent characterization. They had their niche and were both tragically cut short, respectively. Also worth noting Paul Reubens in that conversation, with slightly more mixed opinions.
I put on Pee-Wee's big adventure the other day just to see how it hold up and was amazed at the number of lines that were a huge part of my childhood. So much of his banter was gold for kids to repeat ad nauseum.

Okay, which one of you is throwing his voice?
I'm going to have to watch Dr. Otto and the Riddle of the Gloom Beam again.
It's been so long, though I assume most are thinking of a different Dr. Otto these days:
Nothing against Alfred Molina, a powerhouse in his own right.
Most people who are old enough to remember when Ernest had his own Saturday Morning show have never heard of that movie. You basically had to be lucky enough to find the right video store and then realize it was the 'Ernest' guy. I also don't believe it's ever gotten a decent release since, but I could be wrong.
However-
Already belongs to public domain? Yeesh, lots of confidence there.
That's the Internet Archive for you. People are uploading tons of movies and there's no moderation. It's going to be taken down sooner rather than later and it's a damn shame.
Don't Betaze me bro
