R.I.P. Jim Varney!!❤️🙏 (We love and miss you!!)

[@MrWillyWonka]

This video is living proof that Jim Varney is one of the most underrated actors of all time. I say underrated bcuz those who don't know about Ernest usually don't know anything about Jim Varney or who he even is... Which is a shame bcuz Ernest movies are one of a kind. RIP Jim we all love and miss you but ur legacy and remembrance lives on through us and your classic timeless films.

[@Sanzaru123]

And to you Mr. Wonka, in your honor, I must say. Good Night Sir.

[@MadScientist267]

Jed showed he was more than his typecast... Having seen that, I would guess with all the other I've seen from him that he could go at literally anything and nail it. He was a master at what I say just about has to be the hardest of them all... Keeping a straight face thru his antics. He could have done anything.

[@josephkunath4173]

Watch his old stand up comedy it's hilarious.

[@candicemorland2939]

I think the most underrated. ❤

[@moshomaniac1]

Jim Varney once said of Ernest: "Ernest is a friend or relative we've all had at one point. He's abrasive, but he doesn't mean to. He gets all over excited, and ends up standing on your feet. I try to make him as comical as I can."

I'm 30 and grew up watching his movies. My niece and nephew (5 and 7 years-old respectively) both love his movies as well. Jim Varney made family-friendly material that wasn't outlandishly obnoxious of the backpack- and lunchbox-selling garbage of today.

[@anakelly76512]

@@jonc.m8717 The so called family friendly movies today aren't all that family friendly, IMO. They use some pretty foul language in supposed kid shows today. Even a lot of the ads of today are pure smut. I remember when Jim Varney always made sure to never let kids see him smoking or seeing him in a picture holding a cigarete. He knew it was a terrible addiction and didn't want the kids who looked up to him think it was ok to smoke. Even in "Ernest Goes to Jail", when the warden asked if he wanted a cigarette before being executed, Ernest said said, "No. Cigarettes'll kill ya". Too bad he wasn't able to quit smoking in time.

[@leathercoatguy]

theres a compilation of his commercial spots from the 80s and the bloopers at the end of the video proved this to be true. He was doing some spot involving a bag of groceries in a kitchen and the kitchen phone rang, unscripted of course, and without missing a beat he said, "...and you answer the phone." and the crew erupted in laughter
