Fred Willard loses his second job.

T

TroyG

As host of The ABC Show, "Trust Us With Your Life". Reruns of "Wipeout" will be filled in for the time being starting tonight and Next Tuesday. The fallout has just come after some allegations on The 71-year old actor who was arrested for lewd behavior.
 
They yanked (no pun intended) Pee-Wee Herman's CBS show even faster after his dirty little ordeal.
 
In these days of Internet porn, you'd think he could do his "dirty little deed" at home in private.

But that being said, I'm still a fan. Willard is one of the funniest actors ever, IMO.
 
ironically he played Pee Wee's dad in a couple of episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond
 
To be fair, Pee Wee Herman was hosting a kid's show. Bit of a difference.

I do know that those adult movie houses are great places to buy and make drug drops. I wonder if that was the real reason he was there? ???

I think you're talking about Chris Elliott, Not Pee-Wee. Elliott happens to be the slacker son to Fred Willard on Everybody Loves Raymond.

Yes -it was Chris Elliot. He played the brother to Raymond's brother's girlfriend. Willard was the prospective father in law. Those were very funny episodes.

Recently, Willard has played Phil Dunphy's father on Modern Family. Also hilarious, IMO.

Pee Wee did play the son the first time the character was introduced, but then Chris Elliot played him afterward.

Yes, Pee Wee got fired after a brief tenure as Amy's brother. Then Chris Elliott replaced him.
The Raymond cast has been extraordinarily tight-lipped as to why Pee Wee was shown the door.

Just to be clear, Chris Elliott has never been accused of any sort of public misconduct in a theater.
 
I gotta ask: not to be explicit about it - but is there something about these guys fondling themselves that is so unforgivable? We let Hugh Grant off the hook for getting caught soliciting a prostitute, though he had to do a mea culpa on Jay Leno. We let Marv Albert off the hook after it was publicized that he liked kinky sex with multiple partners- IIRC - a woman came forward and accused him of sexual assault. I beieve one of his kinks involved biting. Talk about embarrassing! Old Marv was out in the cold for awhile, but he's back and is forgiven.

So I vote for letting Fred and Paul Rubens off the hook now, already.

"themselves"
other than that, they're all interchangeable with the whats, wheres, hows, whens, whys, and wherefores.
even in hollywood-speak, that's still more along the lines of "creeper" than the other variations we've seen...
 
I'll keep an eye out for those "Legalize Public Wanking" t-shirts.
 
Before they print the shirts, they'd have to find some sympathetic characters to embody the cause.
The TV ads would say "This guy here is just like you...has a family....drives a car...likes hanging out in the park...listens to Nickelback...watches Glee....went to high school....all he wants to do is live out his freedom of speech rights..." etc. :mad: :mad: ;D
