Tom Davis, probably most famous as a long-time writer for SNL and former comedy partner of Al Franken.

Ain't It Cool has some great clips of his material compiled.

Aw, sad. I loved their writing and when they would appear as Fraken and Davis. Funny and good writer!

Very folksy sad cheese for Andy Griffith.

My dad and I used to watch a lot of The Andy Griffith Show and The Rifleman, and he always said he wished he could be the kind of father that Andy Taylor and Lucas McCain were.

Widowered.

But seriously, I can still watch The Andy Griffith show for hours at a time. It's a sad day.

I can't recommend highly enough Andy Griffith's performance in "A Face In The Crowd," in which he plays a reactionary "everyman" media figure, kind of a prototype Bill O'Reilly. It's an amazing, obnoxious performance.
