John Larroquette general discussion thread

I m loving Harry Anderson when he used to appear on Saturday Night Living doing comedic magic skits that were very clever and funny. When I saw hw was going to be in a sitcom I knew I had to watch it. As much as I enjoyed Harry in the show, it would not been nearly as good without Larroquette.

Their slogan should have been, Night Court: come for Harry Anderson, but stay for John Larroquette!

 

Love his small role in Star Trek: The Search for Spock.

 

Loved him on NIGHT COURT. As has been said, he made it all look effortless. Fielding was often an egotistical jerk, but John made him so you couldn’t help but like him.

If John and Dabney Coleman ever had a series together it could have been spectacular: two brilliant comedic actors with talent and charisma to burn.

 

He eventually took his name out of competition to give someone else a chance, didn't he?

 

Yes.

 

You're not the guilty party at all, and I just couldn’t remember your name.

 

I was going to make a topic on Harry Anderson, but that will be for one of the off topic posts instead.

 

I really liked that show. A lot.

The movie Star Trek 3 was on TV last night and I stopped by long enough to see Christopher Lloyd and John Larroquette as Klingons. Here's Larroquette's best moment, two of them actually, with Shatner. John is the straight man. Bill gets the punchlines.

 

Other theater productions that John was in:

Oliver Parker! (Off Broadway) (2010)

The Best Man (2012)

Oscar and Felix, A New Look at the Odd Couple (2002)

1776 (Off Broadway) (2016)

great interview with Maron a few years ago...had no idea of his background.

 

John was in an episode of Three's Company playing a cop.
He should've gotten a crib at the apartment complex and become a regular.

 

One of my favorites was him in the movie, Blind Date...

"ARE YOU DRILLING HER"?!?!

Episode 777 - John Larroquette — WTF with Marc Maron Podcast

 

I posted the link to the episode of his interview with Maron from the WTF website.

 

According to Wikipedia;

"The role won him Emmy Awards in 1985, 1986, 1987 and 1988. In 1989, he asked not to be considered for an Emmy Award. His four consecutive wins were, at the time, a record."

 

Yep, great NBC lineup. Then on Friday we got A-Team and Miami Vice. And Saturday was 227, Golden Girls, and Amen. Great time to be alive!!

Dan Fielding - all time classic character. He should've gotten the "Frasier" treatment and gotten a proper spin-off. A private practice sitcom.
