Just a warning: if you’re not used to TMR, you will have to deal with Sam interrupting the video multiple times to give commentary.

    Winkler has always been a solidly stand up guy. They say to never meet your heroes. But coming from an area where Winkler has spent a decent amount of time. And talk to a number of people who have encountered him in the course of daily life. He’s probably one of the safe ones.

      We should see if he and Alan Alda can have a nice guy-off. Maybe have a tag team with Ed Begley, Jr. for one of them.

        Damn Begley JR. There is a name I haven’t thought about in a hot minute. Which is sad. Though it’s also apropos. It’s the perfect season for one of my favorite movies he’s in. Co-starring with Jeff Goldblum Geena Davis Michael Richards and a number of others.

        But between those three, alda, winkler, begly Jr. They are absolutely better than Maher in every aspect. Definitely with respect to acting. Maher’s biggest role was when he played himself in piranha women of the avocado jungle.

      My ex met him on a flight and said he was one of the most delightful people she’s ever met. If he can be nice to a stranger on a flight I’d say he’s probably safe too.
