BREAKING NEWS.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Ernest Borgnine, the beefy screen star known for blustery, often villainous roles, but who won the best-actor Oscar for playing against type as a lovesick butcher in "Marty" in 1955, died Sunday. He was 95.

His longtime spokesman, Harry Flynn, told The Associated Press that Borgnine died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center with his family by his side.

Television fans loved Borgnine as the scheming Navy officer in the sitcom "McHale's Navy." Borgnine was also known as the heavy who beats up Frank Sinatra in "From Here to Eternity" and one of the thugs who menaces Spencer Tracy in "Bad Day at Block Rock."

but ,I really don't think this generation has seen any of his stuff because it is old. hell even his television show Mchales Navy was on black and white.....

 

[Natasha]

I hadn't seen those shows, but I've seen him a lot in his more recent roles. I think a lot of younger people know who he is.

:24: I'm sorry I find the humor to be really bad and my attention span cannot handle it. It's been on the air for over a decade. I think it's time to put him to bed. I was a senior in high school when the show premiered and now I'm 32 LOL

 

[cam elle toe]

yah....but the boy and I only discovered him in the last couple of years!!!! So he's still Sponge worthy for me!!! HA

I'm thinking 30-something men are not the target audience for Spongebob, LMFAO Niether are mid-30s women, but I find it funny sometimes.

What's really funny is my dog...she actually WHINES if you change the channel when Spongebob is on.

The quality of television has fallen. I would not be interested in such a show if it came on when I was a kid.
