Leslie Nielsen #1 - "Doing nothing is really hard."



Even though Leslie Nielsen made his TV debut in 1948, and his movie debut in 1956, he found his greatest fame in the 80s. In 1980, Leslie's career changed forever with "Airplane". This led to the short lived TV series "Police Squad" in 1982, which then led to "The Naked Gun" in 1988 and it's two sequels.



His other 80s films include "Prom Night", "Creepshow", "Nuts" and "Soul Man". His appearances on 80s TV include "Who's The Boss?", "Highway To Heaven" and "Murder She Wrote".

Whenever he went on a talk show, he always had a fart machine. If he moved or crossed his legs, a little fart would come out.

I even liked him in the movie Spy Hard, which I only like because Weird Al did the theme song and it was too f'n funny.
