Surely you can't be serious...
I was stunned when I heard about this. I guess that when somebody like Leslie Nielson has been around so long, it is easy to forget to treasure them while they are still here.
We used to watch Dracula: Dead and Loving It on repeat for weeks at a time when we were little. Truly, rest in peace Shirley.

He died in his sleep, after telling his doctor and his nephew his final words of encouragement, "I just want to tell you both good luck, we're all counting on you."

oh my god, you mean it's not true? he's pullin a 2pac? but he must have had a comfortable enough existence and he wasnt a columbine shooter so why go through with the fake death thing/?
I met Lesley a few months ago.

He was very weak then, at least compared to his normal spritely self.

That said, he shook my hand tightly and posed for a brilliant photograph.

In the first one we had together I say with some hesitation he pretended he was dead!

Good man. Grew up on his films. RIP Leslie.
