Ah the good ole days when TV was watchable and enjoyable. Rest in Peace Ernest T and thanks for the laughs!

Always helped to bring me back down to earth and made a more enjoyable evening. That was in my opinion the best thing to ever come out of the TV! Ernest T. Bass was great.I loved the one where he got his diploma for special learning and Barney cried at the presentation.
