Fred Willard: The Funniest Straight Man
A Fond Farewell. He was that rare kind of actor who, whenever he turned up, always made you think: "This is gonna be good!"

He was the best part of the Christopher Guest movies imo. My favourite line of his "You know what they say about blind prostitutes? You really have to hand it to them!"
A comedy god. Completely offensive with a thick armor of congeniality.
Best in Show is a movie I can watch over and over. Fred Willard was great.
this was wonderful... loved him
Remember him from Fernwood Tonight 😂❤❤❤😂

"Yesterday, I had to crawl under the house to check on a leak. I crawled under; I didn't tell anybody and they didn't know I was under there"
Nice tribute, the guy was brilliant!
RIP Fred... you will be missed.
He's at his peak in the Fernwood Tonight TV show with Martin Mull. The episode with Tom Waits is a classic!!!
Fred Willard played "Fred Willard" in every movie like John Wayne played "John Wayne"...and I'll watch every last one of them.
Beautiful tribute to one of the funniest people ever
WAAA HAPPEN!
Nice tribute! That dry humor always gets me. He was so good in Best in show/Anchorman
I was in a depressed mood until I saw this. I love Fred.
He was unique.
Great compilation of a legend. Thank you.
You should have added in some Fernwood 2-Nite stuff. He was a master of dead-pan... he had a line once where he said something like, "During World War 2, you could kill as many Germans as you liked... but boy, you do that nowadays and you're in a lot of hot water." He says it so innocently that it's 100 times funnier.
"Put the bow and arrow down and let the marching band go. We'll call it a prank!" - RIP to a legend
Just to be clear, Fred is not the “straight man” in these roles. In comedy, the straight man is the “serious” one while the other guy is all the funnier for it. In the Smothers Brothers, Dick was the straight man.
I remember when he was bicoastal, that is, if you consider the Mississippi River a coast.
He was so quick.
"How much do you think I could bench press?"
RIP to a legend
Guy was so funny
This was Vox before Hell.
So good
Fernwood 2-Night changed my life. Why is everybody dying? 😿
Don’t think you know what straight man means but alright good video
