Bob Newhart Monologue - Saturday Night Live

[@MahaliaMD73]

RIP, Bob Newhart! There was no one else like you- a complete original and beloved by millions. Thank you, sir 🙏🏻💜

[@halweiss8671]

Another comedian from the 1870’s tried something similar, but the audiences just couldn’t connect with a guy pretending to converse with someone else on a telegraph.

[@Oceangirl_505]

Amen!

[@foste409]

Rip

[@stickybearskinrug2046]

This one really hurts. Another legend gone. Thank you for all decades of laughs, Bob Newhart ❤

[@ajn465]

I could watch Bob Newhart do Half a phone call all day every day

[@ArizonaSquatch]

America's Dad! One of the best to ever grace the screens in our homes. Thank you the lifetime of memories. Rest In Peace.

[@ERGStump]

"America's Dad"?

[@mbhoffman38]

He was very adamant that his characters never be a dad. He did not want to be the butt of a child’s smart aleck comments.

[@secretasianman2531]

what made him great was his reliance on the intelligence of his audience.

Yes. Bob took us into his joke.

[@coryburns9161]

So if I went to work these days huh

[@colorman4490]

That audience was not the sharpest then. Dullards in fact

[@kathytaylor5611]

Thank you for the laughs RIP❤

[@yell0wberry]

Rest in peace to a TV sitcom icon, Bob Newhart

[@nicolamcguinness8689]

Rest in peace bob newhart

[@broadcastblast544]

His standup from the 50's / 60's is still brilliant today !

[@sailor-rick]

I think his first comedy album was in the 60s

[@kevinangus4848]

His first album is also his first public performance. Before that, he was "the really funny guy at work."

[@jonhowell5014]

Bob was the GOAT of dry humor. He could tell a joke, then start telling another before the audience caught on to the punchline. And like George Carlin and a few others, he could make us laugh without saying a word. RIP, Mr. Newhart.

[@decisionforchristwithpasto7911]

RIP Bob. You will always be a national treasure for us.

[@lsteiner]

If we can borrow Bob for little while... US TOO!

[@milesjolly6173]

Thank you to my grandad for introducing me to the comedy of Bob Newhart, he’s brilliant.

[@markunger1098]

Bob Newhart is a legend!😂

[@johnanthonycafe2993]

Bob Newhardt always delivered holding up a mirror to modern America. His material was always entertaining.

[@murraystewartj]

Newhart's phone sketches are the best - you have to use your imagination to fill in for the person he's talking to. Rather than just listening, you become engaged.

[@knowspicker6616]

Engaged, using your imagination. Like listening to lots of radio in 1940s and 1950s. Good for one's brain.

[@NoahSpurrier]

I love Bob Newhart.

[@suedenim]

My favorite part of this is, he's killing on SNL with decades -old material.

[@ksteiger]

My friend and I performed (lip synched) the driving instructor in 4th grade, in 1964. LOVE BOB!!!!

[@DeniseLaFranceCDNpainter]

Rest in peace Bob. You were one of my all-time favorite comics. ❤ (You & Rodney Dangerfield)

[@lorinichols9996]

He was my number one, followed pretty closely by Carol Burnett and Tim Conway ❤

[@douglasmcconnell8116]

A comedy treasure, My favorite Comedian.

[@mrmusickhimself]

I used to sit by the TV and record episodes of SNL with my tape recorder. Bob ended up teaching me how to fake a phone call that night, and I'm still damn good at it - gets me out of MANY awkward situations. Rest in Peace Legend.

[@yvonnecooper5004]

That is quite a story😂😂

[@mrmusickhimself]

@@yvonnecooper5004 I also recorded the Paul Reiser and David Hyde Pierce episodes, but the Bob Newhart and George Foreman tapes were the only ones to survive all these years. Apparently, Bobby Monyihan also used to sit by the TV with a taperecorder....good times.

[@24th1879]

Bob Newhart... Just brilliant..

[@wendelynanderson9517]

Bob Newhart, like Betty White & Carol Burnett, is a national treasure.

[@mattalbrecht7471]

Only Carol remains

[@allenwalker1379]

I really needed some comedy right now. Thanks Bob.

[@tristenhartney9674]

Rest in peace pal ❤

[@krzykris]

RIP Bob. You made me laugh for most of my life.

[@ramonvalencia5719]

Everyone on Earth: "Rest in peace, Bob. We'll miss you." Everyone in Heaven: "Hi, Bob!"

[@Oceangirl_505]

Excellent!

[@-danR]

Bob on his cellphone: "Hello? Yes... uh... is this heaven? Yeah, yeah... my name's Newhart... now look, you don't know me but... I'm standing outside the Pearly Gates... yes... _Newhart_ . I'm standing out here and there's this guy calling himself 'Peter'. Peter who? I don't know his last name. He calls himself Saint Peter..."

[@93Jubilee]

I've loved Bob Newhart and his briliant comedy since I raided my older sister's record colleciton an discovered his "Unbottoned" album in something like '63! I was about twelve. And my dear sister was never angry with me, just happy I'd found him!

[@TheMikester307]

LOL! I heard this for the first time when I was a kid playing my parent's record collection. This must have been about fifty five years ago!

[@olleselin]

R.I.P Bob Newhart 😢

[@shemstock]

RIP Bob you were the best and so funny. I loved your deadpan humor

[@ashcarrier6606]

I heard that one of his stand up comedy albums is one of the best-selling of all time.

[@nathelondon3719]

Clean, sharp and still alive!

[@dewilew2137]

He’s my birthday twin ❤

[@MrT8599]

About that…

[@okcommut3r]

RIP in peace Bob

[@HisAssholiness]

my parents had the best of bob newhart album (1966) and that routine was on there

[@SPrintF1]

What a remarkable man! Bob, I love you.

[@TTony-tu6dm]

OG showing how it’s done. “Depends if we have a 13th floor or not” is a damn killer joke

[@naylorbroughton1159]

Thank you for everything Bob! We will always love you! RIP

[@drumbum3.142]

Happy Ninety-Third Birthday to This Deadpan Goofball. 😌😊☺️☺️😊😌😊🐹

Mr. Newhart is my birthday twin (5 September). He will be 95 this year! ❤

[@saanzacs]

Bob's had a real good run, not bad for 94

[@virginiacooper1929]

Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart and Carol Burnett babysat me every weekend

[@michaeltubbs272]

A master of his craft.

Ya gotta love Bob Newhart

[@RCAWHICK]

Hilarious man! And kept it clean. Snd his shows were also amazing

[@kateferro5039]

I can’t stop watching this. If only a therapist had told me to stop it twenty years ago. It is beyond genius.

[@jst7714]

Have you seen Bob’s therapist sketch? He gives great advice on how to “stop it!”

[@danaann7267]

Do people today appreciate the BRILLIANCE of this?

[@junkboxxxxxx]

📞 Hi Bob

[@nevinvegas]

He’s 56 here, hard to believe he’s still with us after all these years.

[@MrT8599]

Well now he’s died

[@Phantom19913]

You jinxed it

[@SidneyBroadshead]

[@tkgsg]

Didn't know Professor Proton hosted SNL.

[@bretfisher7286]

One of the classic comedians of all time. He is still alive, but very old and feeble now-- I believe he's in his nineties. God bless him.

[@robertjameson2327]

Thanks Norm Oldheart.

[@juliekane7210]

My parents loved all of the Bob Newhart shows … we had one TV do we had to watch with them or read a book

[@molivera11]

Brilliant Bob Newhart!

[@AmericanSoldierSioux1969]

Ha. My wife is a master of Catch-22. She won't do things when she thinks about them she waits until she forgets them.

[@ljherrmann]

RIP to the best!

[@shannonbenson8921]

Rest in peace, Mr. Newhart. 😢

[@KenLieck]

I saw Bob Newhart perform at a charity gig in Austin in the late '90s, and I was stunned when he did a fair bit of risqué material -- especially in front of a charity show audience! I haven't been able to find any evidence of him doing those kinds of "adult" routines any other time -- I would expect him to do it here on SNL if anywhere! Has anyone else seen Newhart doing material about s*x?

[@kdubselassie]

Bob 😃🙌🙌🙌🙏

[@robertpolityka8464]

RIP Bob

[@DawadsonJohn-ef2cw]

Who else here to honour the legend.?

[@micheleandre4241]

RIP Dude

[@freddyfurrah3789]

He is 64 years old here. He was blessed with a good constitution.

[@beverleyreid7572]

You made laugh Bob!

[@miamisands3412]

Rip we will miss you

[@fromtherubble6890]

Every stand-up comic should watch Newhart at work...Nobody did low-key humor better than Bob.

[@m.hernandez1404]

Genius!

[@mattalbrecht7471]

Never knew Bob hosted SNL at all, let alone twice!

[@jackiehite5099]

Aww. I liked him.

[@dirtfarmer7472]

I started laughing at the 2:20 minute mark !!!

[@johnJohnson-us1tm]

A national treasure.

[@brianstubberfield2116]

Bob Newhart saying he didn’t get to NY enough? I’m sure he’d give it a big swerve now!!!! 😂😂
