The late Mr. Winters also played a pool-shark based on the famous Minnesota Fats in an episode of "The Twilight Zone".

I liked last year's inclusion of a 30 minute surprise Twilight Zone in the early hours. It gave fans a rare chance to see an episode on the big screen and, for those of us who had seen it, we got a morning coffee break.

A great comedian who could improvise a routine on anything.

Got to see him perform briefly at a 3 Stooges Convention of all places.

I can't complain but sometimes I still do. Life's been good to me so far.

One of the great comic talents. I second the mention of THE LOVED ONE - a great 60s black comedy.

Winters was one of those guys who was just as funny - if not funnier- without a script as with.

he made a mockumentary IN 2008. it was feature length and called "certifiably johnathan". He loses his sense of humour and goes on a quest to find it. many cameos are made by famous comedians.
