- Prolific TV producer Norman Lear has died. He was 101. Lear died at his home in Los Angeles of natural causes on Tuesday, a spokesperson tells ET in a statement. A private service for immediate family will be held. The titan of television was the mastermind behind iconic series 'All in the Family,' 'The Jeffersons,' 'Maude' and 'Good Times,' along with 'One Day at a Time' and the sitcom's 2017 reboot.
I grew up watching every one of your sitcoms. Loved them all. I'll tell you, my dad has never laughed so hard as to when he'd watch All In The Family. There is a generation out there that will never forget your sitcoms and the diversity they brought to television. May you rest in peace, Mr. Lear 🙏💜
I did too, I still watch them on Get TV every night. His sitcom are classics.
Rest In Peace 🕊️💜🕊️🙏🏾

He was 101
This one really hurts 😭 Rip 1922-2023 Norman Lear
Norman Lear gave spotlight to a part of America that had not been given much attention on television. A part of the country that had real concerns, that was affected by the issues of that period. Poverty, discrimination, war in Vietnam, women’s rights, abortion. He took television in a new direction by not ignoring the America that most tv shows wanted to pretend didn’t exist. He changed TV forever and we are not only grateful to him, we need a Norman Lear more than ever. R.I.P.
Bubbly contagious outlook on life made everyone take a hard look within and question societal norms in a humorous and lasting way. Remarkable intellectual. He will be greatly missed. RIP
Thank you for the memories Norman Lear! Rest in heavenly peace.😢
Rest in Heaven, Norman Lear, and thank you for all of your wonderful shows. 🕊️😢💔
Racist thief
He's most likely not there! Unfortunately
Thank you Mr. Norman Lear for these classics you have created. I love The Jeffersons, One Day at a Time, Good Times, and Maude. You are forever in our hearts.
He stole the idea for Jefferson and good times from Eric monte

As I write this on Thursday, December 7th, 2023 at 12:30am, I must say that Norman Lear's body of work is as relevant today as it was when it originally aired. Thank you so much for your genius, Norman!!!! RIP
This man was my childhood.. and he will always have my respect
For stealing Eric monte idea's? He was a racist thief
@@Rap-ub9ye Racist? I think you should do research
@@HateJJ_YT I already did. Take your own advice
@@Rap-ub9ye don’t need to thank you very much and maybe you didn’t search much as you could comprehend
Rest in peace Mr. Norman Lear. Thank you for the sitcoms that you have created. For the wonderful memories of growing up and watching these shows around supper time when the family was together. Most of all the show All in the family. Every Saturday night while my older siblings were out on dates or hanging with friends my momma, daddy and me would be in our living room watching All in the family. I was 5 yrs old. Great memories! 😊
Thank u Mr. Lear for making me feel like I wasn't alone & helping me to laugh at myself & my situation cuz it was the laughter u created that not only helped me thru it but also helped me do something about my situation with courage, strength & most of all laughter! RIP U SWEET BRIGHT MAN OF COURAGE, SUBSTANCE & SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY!!!
This is very sad news. This man literally crossed my mind. A couple of days ago. He is the ultimeant storyline to my growing up as a child. In the 70s. All the TV shows in which I have ever grown up on his name is on it. I still to the day watch reruns everyday. I am what we call vintage. Nostalgic Person there are not enough words to speak on thisPhenomenal man. I am very sad and hurt and feel like part of my childhood is going away. He created most. If not all of the TV shows we grew up with.Love you, Mr. Norman Lear the king of television rest in peace.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mr Norman Lear is the gift that keeps on giving rest in peace Sir.The best.

Ground breaking sitcoms in the 70s. A brilliant man. Rest in peace. You earned it! 101 wow!
Rest in Peace Norman Lear, you created one of my favorite shows All In the Family. Rest well sir, you've earned it.
RIP Mr Lear. Thanks for all the great shows and bringing Eric Monty’s vision of Good Times and The Jefferson’s to life
An icon. Rest in Peace.
What a lucky man he was, and how lucky we were to have him in our midst.
Rip to to family members of all of Normans tv shows may they rest in heaven
He was in my opinion one of the best producers & screenwriters in the history of television, and to live 101 years on this planet says he was one hard working machine…and loved every minute of it. Rip Norman Lear🫶💜
Like many others, I grew up watching his shows, with my parents and siblings, all gathered together. I hope that as a society, we can once again go back to shows that whole families enjoy together. I wish y'all would of mentioned his service during WW2.
You will be forever in our hearts. Rest in peace Norman Lear.❤
Imagine trying to get “All in the Family” on television today - and keeping it on the air!
Rest In Peace Mr. Norman Lear and Thanks for the childhood memories.
You gotta admit, the guy had guts. The shows he produced dealt with subjects that no one else had the courage to face up to in those days. We confront these matters now, but Norman Lear made America face up to the truths about itself.
Wow, what a awesome person he was, and he loved his job. All in the Family was fantastic show, and I watched it growing up in Finland. He looked amazing for a 100 year old man. Exciting life he had. RIP Norman.
Do your research. This man is pure wicked
@@iqualifiedtoprovemydust Omg, how RUDE !!!

Norman Lear
1922-2023
We’ll miss you, pal.
Loved his shows.
Those were the days...
Thanks, Norman.
WOW. I can only hope & pray I live to be 101 or older & still be competent. He lived a very long, blessed life. R.i.p. Mr Lear , I loved all of the shows & watched them just as my mom did when she was a kid.
I never realized until just now that this gentleman shaped how I saw the world as a kid! RIP
Norman made it easir to talk to one's parents.
He also helped one feel less weird by watching someone just as weird going through the same thing.
We love you .. God bless you and your family.
Just a fucking legend.
His shows had a lot of balls and a lot of heart.
R.I.P. Mr. Lear
Praying for his wifey and kids and family and friends and fans 🙏🙏🙏🙏

RIP MR. NORMAN LEAR!!!! THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES - CONDOLENCES TO THE LEAR FAMILY!!!
I'm proud of Norman he lived a good long strong healthy life. RIP NORMEN‼️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oh my heart. He was our collective funny bone and our conscience. Rest in joy and laughter Mr. Lear.
He was truly an amazing man. I watched all of his sitcoms. He was definitely a man of vision, a man that understood human nature, the good parts and the bad. He was gifted, and will be missed!!❤❤❤
My favorite memory of him when he hosted SNL. And the famous skit he did with the actors of All In The Family, The Jefferson's, Maud.
He is now an angel and with the Lord, the legend was a legend and he was epically epic. I seen Good Times, and The Jeffersons, and now, I have to watch it again. Now he can't no more shows. Norm was so epic to us, and why did he die? He was 101, which was a big number, and he was so close. I can't believe this happened. RIP Mr. Norman. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
He lived such a life r.i.p sir
RIP To a trailblazer of television sitcoms. You made the world a better place. The laughs keep coming. Still funny after all these years. Don't forget Mary Hartman Mary Hartman. Classic !
I love Norman Lear, may he rest in peace.
Aw, thinking about him yesterday, binging on the Jefferson's, thank God for the gift, he will always be a blessing to the world, laughter and great lessons in living!
Wow, I had no idea he was still alive. He was a genius with the shows he wrote. I loved all his shows. One of my all-time favorites still is good times. I watched it every time it was on tv. The Jeffersons was another great one. To this day, my brother still calls me Weezie. Those were the days when sit coms were everything. Back then, there were only 3 tv channels.
He passed away at age 101 years old.
Rest in peace, Mr. Lear. Thanks for the great shows.
Rest in peace Norman Lear. Glad you made it up to 100 years.
Correction: American screenwriter and TV series creator, Eric Monte (born Kenneth Williams; Dec. 25, 1943) depicting 1970s culture of people of color wrote and created Good Times (with actor and screenwriter Mike Evans), The Jeffersons as a writer, What's Happening based on the movie Cooley High, as well as the spin-off series, What's Happening Now.
Eric Monte also pitched The Jeffersons AND Sanford and Son to Norman Lear. Mr. Monte also suggested Lear cast Red Fox as the main character Fred Sanford. Norman Lear had the means to bring Eric Monte’s and Mike Evans creative visions to television. The theme song for the television sitcom The Jeffersons was created by Ja’Net DuBois (d. 2020), creative songwriter, and singer who was best known for her portrayal of Willona Woods in the television sitcom Good Times.
Norman Lear is given far too much credit for a number of sitcoms created for television; tv programs which were the ideas or personal life experiences of other creative writers and producers. Please give credit wherever credit is due. Example: Norman Lear, along with Eric Monte, Mike Evans, Bud Yorkin, and other creative writers and producers brought you Sandford and Son, Good Times, What’s Happening, and All In The Family, a remake of a British television program on the air six years before Archie Bunker was created for American television.
Heaven has a new head of production; the best is yet to come. Rest in peace Mr Lear, you are already missed!
All in the Family was lightning in a bottle. Many people had an Archie Bunker somewhere in their family or social circle. And, Norman did his homework. He faithfully represented the political demographics of the legislative district on Staten Island where Archie lived. He lived to be 101. Thanks for giving us laughter!
Rest In Peace and Power and Paradise 🙏❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
My grandfather enjoyed watching Mr. Lear's shows
Thanks For The Great Tv Shows,You Will Be Missed 😢 ,May You R.I.P Norman Lear,I Can't Believe He's Gone 😢
RIP Norman. Thanks for the great shows Monte.
Norman Lear the man with so many kids! lol to television to the rest or the world who raised us on his creativity in television history… on the television shows ! All in the family! And so many more you brought what was happening in all our homes to Television. Rest in peace
I love all of his shows! I wish people had more balls today to put shows like this on TV again. They were hysterical while also pointing out the stupidity of racism, etc. Nowadays, someone gets offended, and they take it off the air.
Rest In Peace.
R.I.P. Norman Lear. I watched all seasons of The Jeffersons.
Thank you for all the wonderful memories
Thank you for the laughter. R.I.P.😢
Sanford and son is one of my favorite N.L. creations.
'As Fred Sanford would say, ' This is the big one '------
This is the big one who's gone but lives on through these classic sitcoms.
Norman Lear is Ace of Clubs ♣️ REST IN POWER and Merry Christmas ⛄🎁✝️☮️🎄🎅🤶🕊️ Blessings and Hugs 💜💜💜
RIP Norman Lear. You definitely changed the television landscape for the better.
Rest in paradise Mr. Norman Lear 🥺💔🙏🏻

Brought so much laughter in my childhood with my Dad gut busting laughing to Norman’s programs. What a great American we had in Norman
I grew up with all his shows. Seemed like family.
The sitcom Julia starring Diahann Carol played the first single mother (widowed) in 1968- 1971
RIP Mr Lear.., He looked amazing at 100.
R.I.P. Norman Lear (1922-2023)
As an 18 year old to a father who’s african american i can enjoy watching these with him
He opened the door for black TV entertainers and white TV entertainers with his own style of creativity both whity and emotionally
R.I.P. Norman Lear. A legendary trailblazer.
Norman Lear broke grounds that back then people thought couldn't be done
Sanford and son was one of the best shows to bad they never made a crossover episode of all in the family and Sanford and son
Rest in paradise ty for making amazing shows mr lear you are a LEGEND 4 LIFETIME
