Rest in peace Ernest. He was one of my favorite actors since childhood.

loved him in Airwolf...but, in the end, he just didn't masturbate hard enough...

I probably saw every episode of McHale's Navy a dozen times growing up. Acted in an amazing list of movies I love. Glad he got a lifetime achievement award last year. That is cool. And he was 95 years old so he had a pretty good, long life.

RIP. Yep, watched a lot of McHale's Navy, as well as Airwolf. I thought he was great in the Bruce Willis movie not that long ago (name escapes me) as well.

He was always a blast to watch.

Yes, well expressed, Al. He was a convincing character. 95 is wonderful age that far too few people ever have the opportunity to experience.

[skullguise]

He played such an array of roles, also watched him since the MN days..... RIP

R.I.P. Mr. Borgnine.

When I was in my early 20's, we had a drag queen in Anchorage who looked just like Earnest Borgnine. As you might expect, a dress and makeup really didn't produce a pretty package.

I think The Dirty Dozen and The Poseidon Adventure are the standouts for me, but that rough exterior coupled with a vulnerability really made for some interesting characters.

I'd like to say that his Oscar winning "Marty" was my fav but McHale's Navy was.

And they wonder why "sticking it to the man" has been the favorite sport of my generation!

RIP

I'm going with The Wild Bunch...
