RIP RICHARD L. BARE 1913-2015

The man who formed the comedy of my childhood has passed away.

Richard L. Bare, the man who directed nearly every single episode of "Green Acres" has passed away at the age of 101.

Over his 7 decade career he directed 166 episodes of "Green Acres", 7 episodes of "Twilight Zone", 34 episodes of "Petticoat Junction" and the 1973 film "Wicked Wicked", plus much more.

Bare is also credited with discovering James Garner. To me, nobody else ever had the flair for directing comedy as Bare. He passed away on March 28th, 2015.
