When Peter Boyle passed away earlier this week, many mourned the passing of Raymond's dad on "Everybody Loves Raymond". The fact is, not everybody loved Raymond. I never found it funny.
Many others mourned the passing of the monster in "Young Frankenstein". The scene in which Boyle sings "Puttin' On The Ritz" with Gene Wilder is classic. Here it is.
I mourned the passing of Clyde Bruckman. Boyle played Bruckman in "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose", one of my all-time favourite episodes of "The X-Files". Here's a taste of his wonderful performance.
Not everybody loved Raymond. Luckily, Peter Boyle was a whole lot more.
