Farewell, Soupy Sales

If you're wondering why one of your puppets (everyone should have one in their closet) is looking a little extra weepy this morning, it's because Soupy Sales has been called to heaven. The comedian, children's host and owner of the best stage name in the business passed away last night at a hospice in New York. One of Soupy's friends said that he had a lot of health problems, and that's why he was in the hospice.

Soupy has thousands upon thousands of TV and radio credits, but he might have been best known for his long-running children's shows Lunch with Soupy Sales and The Soupy Sales Show. Soupy was also a regular on game shows like Match Game and What's My Line?.

Soupy is survived by his two sons and four grandchildren.

Rest in peace, Soupy. In heaven, the pies don't hit you, you hit the pies. And now I want pie.

I laughed so loud at the sunglasses! The zoot suit!! Tanaka!!!! The slushie facials!

It is a brilliant show and I hope they come back and kick our asses with the originality and creativeness that has FINALLY landed on network TV!!

He was my inspiration. He is why I was such a brat as a child and now such an anus as an adult. I am going to feed my pie hole now with a nice pie in honor of Soupy.

No fans of "Glee" on here? *shocked*

It's just good, happy to be alive, TV. Makes me dance and sing.

Wednesday's episode was hysterical - Tanaka is such a dweeb.

Emma Pilsbury looked BEAUTIFUL in her 2nd wedding dress.

Didn't have to see Shuster's wife for the entire epi: made me soooo happy.

And Quinn got out of that cherleading outfit.

Oh, and Noah is the biggest douche.

Ok, I feel better though no one cares.
*blowing kiss*

Awwwww, this makes me sad. I loved Soupy on the game shows when I was a kid. Another piece of my childhood falls away.

Rest in peace, Soupy. My condolences to his family.

One of TV's greatest blooper moments was on the Soupy Sales show, a stripper was sent out doing the full Monty and he lost it, it was HIGHLARRYUS!

RIP Soupy!!!

And I LOVE MATCH GAME reruns!!!! They will never get another show like that on the air again...

I met Soupy at a restaurant I worked @ in Cincinnati about 15 years ago. He was a gracious kind person. R.I.P. dear Soupy...you funny man you.

God speed Soupy!

His Lunch with Soupy was must-see TV at my house as a kid. So long White Fang, Black Tooth and all the others. One of the best TV shows ever.

RIP, Soupy! Thanks for the laughs!!!

Everyone start sending those green pieces of paper with the presidents faces on them to Heaven now...

I used to race home from college to watch Soupy! I just love love love him! Got the whole DVD collection, Soupy was a genius! White Fang, Black Tooth, Pookie and Hippie! What a gang!

That bit w/Alice was sensational. Too bad Marilyn Manson's too fucked up to descend to kid's telly.

I need to know who this is. I will do my research on wikipedia immediately because I'm supposed to show reverence to this dude with the funny looking puppets. RIP, Soupy.
