If you've never seen it, go watch the Larry Sanders Show. He absolutely crushed it along with Garry Shandling and Jeffrey Tambor.

I opened the thread thinking this was about Rip Taylor.

Then I thought, damn, I thought that guy died decades ago.

Then I realized I was thinking of the wrong Rip.

Then I googled Rip Taylor and was amazed that he was actually still alive.

Then I realized I probably shouldn't write eulogies anytime soon.

Alec Baldwin's story about Rip Torn is so so funny.

Skip to 9:10 if you don't want to watch the whole thing, though Alec is pretty damn funny himself.

“Is it necessary to drink my own urine? Probably not, but it’s sterile and I like the taste.”

I really liked him in Defending Your Life

Hey, at least you give a Rip.

Remember this Rip Torn classic?

God, he was good in "Larry Sanders" as the guy who always had to soothe the ego of the pampered star.

Hope he's having an intergalactic kegger on the other side...

I bet he regretted being in that movie, until yesterday.

That movie changed my life, but in a bad way, I think.

Loved him in Larry Sanders. He was so good in so many minor parts like Dodgeball. He is one of those guys that can add so much to a movie by just doing a little part.
