I used to watch his talk show as a kid and young man. He always seemed like he was genuinely interested in his guests. And he was just fun to watch. So in honor of Merv; Ooooo, here's to ya' Merv.

RIP

Not to mention the many game shows that are on the air because of him - his own show was a great one - I watched him faithfully.

Long live The Elevator Killer!
"I don't know. I've always just loved to kill. I really enjoyed it. But then I got famous, and - it's just too hard for me. And so many witnesses. I mean, *everybody* recognized me. I couldn't even lurk anymore. I'd hear, "Who's that lurking over there? Isn't that Merv Griffin?" So I came to Europe to kill. And it's really worked out very well for me."

I bit before my time, but I used to watch Jepordy and Wheel of Furtune religiously as a kid.

RIP.

I'd like to buy a vowel, Pat.

Besides, you wouldn't spend your money on a vowel, you'd solve the puzzle. Geez. ;)

Not really. I'm an idiot, remember?

I wish TVLand or some channel would rerun his old talk show.

Where's my elephant?

I had no idea he was still alive before I heard the news.

RIP
