Hallo.
This thread is to show your appreciation for celebrities that are well past their glory days but still around.
It may surprise you how many there are out there.
Aside from all the obvious ones like William Shatner (93 and still kicking) show some love to all your favorite olds.
I'll start off:
John Astin (3/30/1930)


He's been an active actor since the 1950s.
Most people probably know him as the original Gomez Addams from The Addams Family:
I first knew him as the guy who owned the World of Stuff from the 90s horror/comedy show Eerie Indiana and Professor Wickwire from the under appreciated Bruce Campbell classic The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.
I have to say though that my favorite roll of his was in the Tales from the Crypt episode "Top Billing". I won't spoil the episode in case you want to watch it for yourself, but he's he's great in it with his quintessential charm and smile:
Bro is still alive at 94 (soon to be 95) and good for him!
Hope he's doing well.
Which elderly actors do you appreciate?
