I remember seeing Jim a few months before he died, when he said he'd finally given up the Ernest movies and was doing theater work. I remember being shocked at how intelligent, urbane, and polite he was. I wish the world would've gotten to know the real him a little better. That being said, he did wonderful work as Ernest.

[@doubleitp]

Why did he say he gave up?

[@PratzStrike]

@@doubleitp I am going off an interview I saw once twenty years ago so don't take this as gospel - if you wanna go look for it, it was after he did that snowboarding/skiing movie where he was basically Ernest but not. He said he was tired of being typecast, and one of the things he loved about the theater was that he was able to play all sorts of roles and parts.

[@doubleitp]

He was a Shakespearian actor and I believe he went to Juliard. He did love making people laugh which is why he did Ernest for so long. I miss him.

I remember seeing him in a Christmas parade in North Carolina when I was a kid. He was riding on a big plastic cow, while waving his hat around, and yelling like a cowboy. One of my earliest memories. RIP Jim Varney.

[@KEYSERSOZE1965]

He was without a doubt one of the funniest men to ever live. He didn't have to be vulgar, he didn't have to cuss, he didn't have to do trashy things. He was just flat-out funny being himself. Jim and his character of Ernest P. Worrell was one of the things that made the 80's so great with his comedic talents.It is a shame he died too soon in life. 50 years old for a man like him just isn't fair, and the world hasn't been as funny without him since.

[@nigabastard1268]

He was kind of funny I guess

[@r3b3lvegan89]

He was absolutely hilarious, he proved you can be a riot and not even bother with profanity or adult only jokes..:..he literally was hilarious to all ages and was original and fluid and was himself. That’s beyond rare these days

[@KairuHakubi]

We gotta stop losing beloved guys named jim at 50

[@aqua-rian]

First saw Jim in commercials around 1980 ish. After my kids were born, the movies followed. My kids' intro to Jim was Ernest goes to Jail. Laughed ourselves sick over the floor buffing scene. The very best thing about Jim, to me, was how he could entertain both kids and adults without cursing. Not one thing in those films ever offended my Mom standards, even though he had a love interest in nearly all of them. Some of the humor was aimed at us adults, but it was never raunchy. That alone is a HUGE talent of itself!

[@rcnelson]

Rubber-faced funny man who died far too young. His was my type of humor, knowwudImean?

[@UncannyValleyVideos]

"Rubber-faced funny man who died far too young. His was my type of humor, knowwudImean?" I hope that this is the epitaph on Jim Varney's gravestone. In all seriousness, Jim Varney left us far, far too early. The man's talent was unparalled. As much as I loved Ernest as a kid, Varney's talent far exceeded the character.

5:48 Was wondering when Tom Kennedy hosted "The Price Is Right", I figured it was an additional version that ran concurrent with Bob Barker's daytime version of the show. It was. I looked it up if anybody else was wondering: "On September 9, 1985, Tom made his debut on a new syndicated, nighttime version of The Price Is Right (previous versions were hosted by Dennis James and Bob Barker). Kennedy's version of the show faced increasing competition (from shows such as Jeopardy! and the nighttime version of Wheel of Fortune) and failed to earn prime access slots and often found itself in late night time slots. After 170 episodes, the show ended it's run on May 30, 1986 (reruns continued to air until September 5)."
