Sad. He was excellent.

Check please.

In real life his cousin was Henry Winkler ( The Fonz ).

 

[The Oracle]

I remember him originally from a cable show he did called ''Hot Properties''. He had Hulk Hogan on one episode and Hogan actually choked Belzer unconscious in a display of a wrestling technique. A standing guillotine if I recall right. A real douche move by Hogan I might add.

Belzer could deadpan a line as good as anyone........Sad to read this.

Sad to see him go. May he and the dear departed Jerry Orbach meet on a higher plane.

He was one of the best....in comedy and drama....
