One of tv's favorite all time actors has passed on at 85.
Boy, 85 years, that's a good run.
R.I.P. Norton!

Wow - that's a shame... He was such a great actor, and he made Norton... I'll have to pop in some Honeymooners tapes tonight in his honor.

RIP - you'll be dearly missed...

Am I right in believing he was in the Holiday Special?

Yikes, you're right!

I prefer to remember him as Ed Norton, though. No doubt he and Jackie Gleason are yucking it up in heaven right now. :)

Though I'm ashamed to admit it, I was thinking the same thing yesterday, that a SW actor died... But he should not be remembered for that - Ed Norton was his best work, hands-down.

I had actually forgotten that he was even in it. He was Norton all the way for me.
