4. I realize Bergen has passed on, |
|
but what about McCarthy and Snerd? Why don't they continue to do cameos?

5. Good question. Kermit lives. |
|
Although they did announce that Kermit would be retired shortly after Henson died. The outcry was overwhelming, so they reversed the decision and Kermit lives on.
In the 70's, my brother got a McCarthy-like doll as a gift. I believe it was called "Willie Talks". It didn't have the top hat or monocle, but it was quite similar.

My favorite is Mortimer Snerd. Bergen created a masterpiece with that character.

9. Unfortunately, he died when he was 13. Reye's syndrome. |
|
He was one of the first cases that was actually diagnosed with a name.

10. My favorite Hitchcock cameo was... |
|
. ...when he was seated in the background in a hotel lobby (I think) and a woman handed him a baby in a diaper. He QUICKLY handed the baby back and started brushing off the legs of his pants. . . My second was in "Lifeboat", where there was no real "device" to be used to show him in the background, but he thought of one. One of the survivors had a newspaper and Hitchcock was the model in an ad for a "Big & Tall Men's Store". . :rofl: .
