The Carol Burnett Show - Moses Supposes with Roddy McDowall

[@brettcampbell778]

Not only was he a gifted actor, but by all accounts he was one of the few true gentlemen in Holllywood. They don't make 'em like him anymore.

[@beret43]

I could not agree more, including Carol Burnett, also Brent. Adios, Todd 1/23/2015

[@generalyellor2187]

How many stars do you personally know today so that you could say that without sounding like an ass?

[@generalyellor2187]

Exactly how many people do you even know in "Hollywood"? None. Exactly.

Not many serious actors can do comedy very well, but Roddy McDowall was not afraid to put himself out there in order to have a little fun, and audiences loved him for it. As a young girl growing up in the 70s, I thought he was adorable. It was always a treat to see him on The Carol Burnett Show. RIP Roddy McDowall. ♥

[@SM-gl8yo]

"Having Roddy around all week is a treat for the ears as well as for the eyes." I couldn't agree with you more, Carol. Well said!

[@evamarek5205]

Yes, they don't make entertainers like this anymore. RIP Roddy.

[@evamarek5205]

Yes, adorable as a child in "How Green Was My Valley".

[@Panwere36]

Roddy McDowall was a absolute star beyond compare. He did every kind of genre and still was dignified in every role he was in.

[@groovymovie3213]

Roddy was so loved by fans and friends alike. A true gentleman and a damn fine entertainer. The world is a much sadder place without him.

[@curiouslyme524]

I totally agree. I still miss this lovely man.

[@AnitaGrace]

Pure entertainment. Unlike what we have today. Am I the only one who watches Roddy and nothing else? The man is too cute for words.

[@zoedean6504]

You're definitely not the only one who watches nothing but Roddy! He certainly is too cute for words. I absolutely adore him!

[@JavaScriptJolt]

💯

[@gordonfalconer9108]

Remember sitting with my mother in the Capitol Theater in Vancouver watching Lassie Come Home . Think we both shed a few tears. No wonder I'm writing this now How Green Was My Valley was a real winner, too. Beats the crud they produce so much today. There was class back then that seems to have gone now. Mom would not approve, nor would I. Roddy, we who remember you, miss you.

[@lindaseel8633]

I had such a crush on Roddy when I was a 16 year old.💘

[@generalyellor2187]

So you just sit around watching endless viewings of Planet of the Apes and other movies Roddy made? Man, that's just sad, and I'm a fan of his.

[@juanitaspitzenberger6870]

Oh my Roddy McDowall is so darn cute. I have a crush since 1972 when I was 9 years old. May he RIP.

[@jasonhurd4379]

Carol doesn't get enough credit for her singing ability. Not only could she do novelty songs, she could wail a soulful ballad or torch song with the best of 'em. I always loved when she would sing on the show.

[@generalyellor2187]

Who is supposed to be singing her praises about her singing since she hasn't had a show on the air in, what, OVER FORTY YEARS?

[@glamdolly30]

As a Brit, I'm insanely proud Roddy McDowall was an Englishman! He was loved by all who knew him, as a truly wonderful, loyal friend (Liz Taylor was among his closest buddies). By all accounts he was the real deal - he really was as witty, charming, genteel and fabulous as he appeared. And what a powerhouse talent! That man could play everything from comedy to tragedy. Only he could have imbued that rubber chimp mask with so much personality! We all have a favourite Roddy performance - mine might be his wonderful cameo as horror TV host 'Peter Vincent' in 'Fright Night', opposite the equally sublime Chris Sarandon in 1985. He made every role magical to the end of his life. Roddy's death from lung cancer in 1998 aged 70, took him from us far too soon. But what a wonderful life!

[@leslauner5062]

This was adorable...but I can't hear "Moses Supposes" without wanting to see Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor doing it LOL!

[@lisaahmari7199]

Me too!😅

[@viking22]

I know, right? One of my fave parts of Singin' In The Rain. They sure don't make 'em like that anymore: Roddy McDowall, Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor and so may more. That's when entertainers had talent!

[@lindaeasley4336]

I think every entertainer during this period loved Carol .So many of them were guests on her show

[@thebeautywithin]

Definitely an enjoyment, the English tongue twisters were enough to make my brain start to feel like it was slipping! Ronnie McDowell is awesome!!!

[@coolsweetgroovy]

So glad we still have Carol and friends RIP Roddy McDowall

[@cathybell4170]

Yeah i had a crush on Roddy McDowall evn when i was a kid, love British men!

I have always loved Roddy McDowall😀

[@RyanKennethStevens]

Stunning Roddy !

[@Toywithme200]

I was only born in 1970, so i remember watching 'planet of the apes' on tv as a toddler, and thinking he was so cute. and yes, i remember that. LOL my mom bought me planet of the apes dolls when i was about 3, i always remember that. and of course as a small child in the 70's, i grew up watching him on all those disney tv movies, like 'that darn cat'. etc. i always loved him.

[@johnrowley3140]

I was half expecting Carol to glare at Roddy, after he did that long one about the thistle, and say, "Oh, shut up!"😁
