Best known to me as Larry from Newhart. I also know him from Blade Runner; and Bar Karma; and True Blood; and a bit of voice work. Oh, also I have long had this crazy theory that he's an immortal, and could probably explain the truth about the disappearance of the Roanoke Colony.... Sandler, Adam

Shadix, Glenn

Also voice work in an ep of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic; and Osmosis Jones. Oh, and of course he's done plenty of commercials (most notably for Priceline). And there's his (in)famous rendition of "Rocket Man," which is truly incredible.
