    Wow, 2019 off to a bad start. Another guy I was a fan of when I was young passed away today.

    His real name was Bob Einstein, but most know him as Super Dave Osborn, a character he played. Though that character was just a tiny part of his career. In addition to acting he was a brilliant comedy writer.



    Along with the Super Dave character I loved him on the Bizarre show. A sketch show where he played the roll of a staff producer who would come set and ***** at the actors.

    If you've watched "Curb Your Enthusiasm", he played Marty Funkhouser.

    Super Dave... damn, huge part of my childhood. He was relatively big in the 80s.

    That particular character, anyway.

    I have been reading. That character was done on tons of different shows. Apparently started on Dick Van Dyke, then Smothers Brothers, Sonny and Cher, Bizarre and so on
