Just watched "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" with the family the other night. He was great as an angry tow truck driver.

I remember him as a regular on Carson.

One of the few people who could get Carson to the point that he could not speak without laughing.

As a kid I used to watch his sit-com. One of the funniest and influential comedians in history. R.I.P Jonathan Winters.

I'm going to miss him. He was just so talented and funny.

RIP, I remeber him most from the old Hollywood Squares...

A very funny guy, he'll be missed.

An amazing entertainer. He used to take suggestions from his audience, e.g., "ex-KGB desk clerk", then do three or four minutes of absolute hilarity full ad-lib. Never at a loss for a comeback, capper, etc.

One of my favorites. Maude Fricket (sp?) was one of my favorite of his characters. May he rest in peace. A wonderful man.

This genuinely saddens me. I thought he was ALWAYS funny; ALWAYS "on." The guy never missed a beat. A regular guest on almost any variety show throughout the 60's and 70's, and for good reason. He made people laugh!

He was a riot on the Dean Martin Roasts.

One of the funniest guys to ever grace this blue marble.
He'll be missed.

Sad news for sure.

Jonathan Winters cracked me up to no end.

Genius. Wonderful memories of my youth watching him. RIP

wow i did not realize he was even still alive, he was great simple humour, not like the filth we have today -he will be missed
