    Big bummer for me. Loved his movies growing up.

    Terrible news. He entertained and did a lot of good with his telethons.

    The French will be sad.

    Rest In Peace. Loved his movies and this must be what growing old means most people that were part of my youth have left us.

    The last of the "Rat Pack". A very exciting time in Vegas history.

    Dean Martin was in the Rat Pack, not Jerry Lewis. They'd gone their separate ways 4 - 5 years before.

    Great movie

    #17 6 years ago

    When I was a kid in NY, there were a few weeks every year I would drop whatever I was doing to watch WABC's 4:30 movie. Martin and Lewis week was one of the best. It's really amazing how many people have never seen one of their movies. Great stuff.

    #18 6 years ago

    Heart of gold. Definitely one of the great ones.

    #21 6 years ago

    Sad to hear of course condolences to the family.

    #22 6 years ago

    He was a great VP under Reagan.

    #23 6 years ago

    He charted the west with Clark.....

    #24 6 years ago

    Must See ....

    #25 6 years ago
    Quoted from Buzz:

    Heart of gold. Definitely one of the great ones.

    Maybe back in the day, but he was a rude MF later in life. Check out any of his recent interviews.

    Still - you can't deny what he did for special need awareness.

    #26 6 years ago

    he was still alive?

    #27 6 years ago

    You can't help but smile when you hear his name.
    Will live for ever in my mind and DVD collection
    R.I.P. goofy one

    And, he achieved that while performing as grandpa on the Munsters..incredible.
    True multi-tasker.

    When I was a kid, we all went to the movies to see The Nutty Professor with a "guest appearance" by Jerry Lewis. About halfway through the movie they stopped the film and Jerry Lewis came out on stage and did a 10 minute routine. Very funny high energy stuff! Once the crowd of kids calmed down (Saturday matinee) they were able to show the rest of the movie. We talked about it for weeks after.

    #34 6 years ago

    Maybe now that he's dead, they will finally release that movie where he plays a clown in a nazi concentration camp whose job is to entertain and then lead the little kids into the gas chambers. Only a handful of people have seen the film. Supposedly it missed the mark. Can't imagine why.

    Not totally accurate. When he realized what he did, he insisted staying with the kids, to the end.
