Earlier tonight, I heard Stewie belt out the wildly entertaining Mr. Belvedere theme on the Family Guy. Thank God for YouTube, where I found the full-length original. The video is a little smushed, but the tune is catchy as ever.
What I couldn't find was the SNL/Tom Hanks "The Guy Who Plays Mr. Belvedere Fan Club" skit from 1992. Here's a transcript.
Just about a year ago, YesButNo broke the news of Christopher "Mr. Belvedere" Hewett's 2001 passing. That kicked off the Retro-bituary series. Following Brocktoon were the Painter from Murphy Brown, Becky's Boyfriend from Roseanne, Hotsy Totsy from Welcome Back Kotter, Bob McAllister from Wonderama, Morty Seinfeld, and the special Fun Facts Edition. I can't think of any obscure celebrity deaths we failed to celebrate this year. Thoughts?
