LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Don Knotts, the skinny, lovable nerd who kept generations of television audiences laughing as bumbling Deputy Barney Fife on "The Andy Griffith Show," has died. He was 81.

Sad news. I watched the "Andy Griffith Show" quite a bit as a kid and enjoyed it, mostly because of his character. I also enjoyed all of his Disney work such as "The Apple Dumpling Gang". Still, I think my favorite thing that he did was "The Incredible Mr. Limpet". I so loved that movie as a kid and in fact, I noticed the other day that it was gradually making its way up my netflix list.
RIP Don and thanks for the laughs.
