The Deadpan Comedy of Leslie Nielsen (Supercut)

I worked for NBC television in the 80's. One day we were all working quietly when our secretary let out a scream. She had turned around to look out the window and there was Leslie Nielsen with his face mushed up against the window making faces at her. They had been filming an episode of Police Squad right outside our office and he couldn't resist the opportunity. He came in and said hello to all of us. Nice guy.

[@misterwhyte]

Haha what a great story! I'm jealous you got to meet the guy! I heard many times that he was hilarious in real life.

Leslie Nielsen was a serious dramatic actor in his youth. He later discovered basically doing his dramatic delivery for absurd situations is funny, and a new type of comedy was born.

[@jimtheedcguy4313]

He’s said in interviews he’s always wanted to be a comic actor.

[@HomoLegalMedic]

It wasn't "born", us English have been performing deadpan comedy since the 1880's. The word "deadpan" to explain this type of comedy was already in use before Leslie was born.

I'll take your word for it. The only time I saw a non-comedy performance of his was when he was on an episode of The Twilight Zone.

[@oskariratinen1213]

I bet the writers loved him as much as the audience. You could basically write a bunch of the simplest toilet humor and dad jokes in existence and Leslie Nielsen turned it into comedy gold. That's not to say the scripts were bad, just that his delivery is so impeccable that even a joke that would be cringey delivered by anyone else became something entirely different when he did it. A true master, there will never be another like him.

Leslie Nielsen is a legend. He has made us laugh ourselves to tears for longer than most who actually watch his movies have lived. When I read of his passing it was truly a painful moment. Even more painful than sitting down on a bicycle with the seat missing. I don't think I've actually collectively laughed as much in 12 years of movie releases since his death than I did in 12 minutes of Airplane, Police Squad or Naked Gun. Every movie he was in was in was the prime reason you enjoyed it. Even the ones considered to be bad movies had their silver lining in Leslie's appearances. I miss him dreadfully. Comedy lost one of its finest, if not the finest, actors when he passed.

I can't watch his older movies anymore without cracking up. His dead-serious delivery, punctuated by those slight, quirky turns of his head into new positions before his head then remained as still as a statue, is just incredibly distinctive and reminds me so much that this is exactly the way he delivered his comedy lines in later years. Nothing changed except the nature of the scripts and it was pure genious.
