Roseanne and Will & Grace are back, but don’t expect to see a Newhart reboot. "That would be a death wish," says Bob Newhart. "My wife would kill me!" Still, the 88-year-old comedic legend recently reunited with co-stars Julia Duffy and William Sanderson for The Paley Center for Media and Hulu’s A Newhart Celebration in La. And it turns out the classic 1982–1990 sitcom was just as much fun to make as it was to watch. "I would go home at night and tell my husband not to say anything funny because my stomach muscles hurt so much from laughing all day," recalls Julia. Bob and his wife at The Paley Center for Media. (Photo Credit: Getty Images) Bob knew he had a tall order when he set out to make a follow-up to The Bob Newhart Show (1972 to 1978), which had cast him as the befuddled Dr. Bob Hartley. He...

Even if you live and work in Hollywood, you don’t get many chances to be in the presence of greatness. And on those rare occasions when you do, you hardly ever get to be surrounded by it. Last night, we were fortunate enough to be on the red carpet at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences celebration of Bob Newhart’s 50th anniversary in show business.
So, not only did we get to interview one of our all-time TV favorites for the Archive of American Television, but we met a few of his friends, too. Lucky for us his best buddies include the mastermind insult comic Don Rickles, the sketch comedy king Tim Conway, and the historic sitcom sidekick Bill Dailey.
Along the way we heard tales of what a joy it is to work with Bob. And, even more importantly, stories about what an all around good guy he is.

It's hard to believe that it's been 20 years since Bob Hartley (Bob Newhart) woke up next to his wife Emily (Suzanne Pleshette) after a really strange dream. This was of course the conclusion of Newhart's second very successful sitcom, Newhart. TV Guide called it the most unexpected moment in TV history. You can watch it here.
Newhart revolves around "how-to" author Dick Loudon (Newhart) and his wife Joanna (Mary Frann) after they move to a small town in Vermont to run a historic inn. The strange locals include heiress and maid Stephanie Vanderkellen (Julia Duffy), handyman George Utley (Tom Poston), TV producer Michael Harris (Peter Scolari) and three strange woodsmen brothers named Larry, Darryl and Darryl (William Sanderson, Tony Papenfuss, and John Voldstad).
Newhart's wife, Ginny, came up with the idea for the memorable series finale and Pleshette was only too happy to...
