    Three minutes in: "I would use 'impacted' as a verb, intransitive..." .
    This is why I clicked on this video. I adore listening to Tony Randall.

    Personally knew Tony in only a peripheral way and he was an extraordinarily good person.

    When you look up "actor" in the dictionary, they should have Mr. Randall's picture there.
    What a great guy, great actor. What joy and laughter you've brought to millions. Thanks

    I met and served dinner toTony Randall when he did the tent show "The Odd Couple" at Smithville Inn in New Jersey. He was with Glugman and did not allow anyone to smoke at the table. He sent his gingerale back as he thought it was flat. Lol !

    What a great voice! Listen to those pipes. Orson Welles had a great set of pipes as well.

    All I can think is Felix Unger they are very similar perfect for the role. Rest in peace Mr. Randall.

    PILLOW TALK: "Why won't you marry me Jan? I'm good looking...I'm very good looking". Hilarious. What an actor.

    I remember Tony Randall on Jack Paar (I saw it live on tv) telling the story of the overwhelming number of terns that had taken over Fire Island - so bad, that locals were throwing stones at them so that in the end, no tern was left unstoned! Great wit - I can't forget that joke.

    "Lend me $5 until television blows over." Well, it's about time to pay back that $5.

    I think that Holdenon3 is correct, and that Mr. Randall actually said, “I would never use the word ‘impact’ as a verb, INtransitive” (although it certainly sounds like “transitive”), or else that he misspoke, for to say “impacted ON” is to use that verb in the intransitive, rather than transitive sense. Regardless of whether he did say “transitive”, I think he certainly would have MEANT to say “intransitive” (he was on the American Heritage Dictionary Usage Panel).

    I would never use the word impact as a verb transitive.

    Tony Randall died 17 May 2005; Jack Klugman is, to the best of my knowledge which isn't much, still alive.

  • @Gerkinstock
    @Gerkinstock 16 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think he died in 2004, actually. Klugman is, indeed, still alive.

    Were these interviews required by the Pentagon or something? They're overly antiseptic and prim and the wonderful subjects in these interviews seem like they've been dragged before a tribunal.
