4. Shooter! I thought we were gonna be friends!

5. I use the wheelchair to get respect!

6. Rest in Peace.

   I’m reminded of the hilarious reoccurring joke in Freaks and Geeks where he is always mentioning a friend who did something and how they’re dead now. He was great in that show.

7. He once got fired for one lousy reefer! And it wasn’t even his!

8. HES DEAD!!! – Harold Weir 

9. Joe Flaherty was just so genuinely hilarious. Always stole the scene. Especially in Freaks and Geeks. RIP to a legend.

10. Joe Flaherty and Becky Ann Baker’s portrayals of Harold and Jean Weir on Freaks and Geeks are my favorite TV parents.

11. Can we get a welfare check on the other SCTV cast we haven’t seen much of lately? Is Dave Thomas okay?
