• In the early or mid 1990s Winters starred in a short-lived sitcom set in Minnesota. Does anyone remember this show? I remember being disappointed that it was cancelled.--Hraefen 00:38, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

• • It was called "Davis Rules".

[edit] Scooby Doo

Somebody has to add some info about his character in the Scooby Doo cartoons. I'm not sure if it was just one episode or a few, but it was his voice and his likeness which was used.

[edit] Mr. Jonathan Winters - a view

Remembering that whenever Jonathan Winters was scheduled on a TV show my Dad would watch that show. It didn't matter what else was on, he and our family would watch it and laugh and laugh. Any movie that he was in, we would also see that usually at least three times. 
Growing up, I'm now 54, like my dad, anytime Jonathan Winters name comes up my attention is focused on whatever is being said. Hopefully I'll hear he is scheduled to be on TV or in a movie. 
There are alot of comedians I've watched and laughed my ass off since I realized what comedy was but no one comes close to Mr. Jonathan Winters. How do you explain a feeling you get when you listen to him in any of his sketches. With all the absolute insanity in the world he is able to make you feel comfortable about making sure you have to sit back and laugh at the insanity. In his subtle words he makes you realize just how stupid some of the things we have done and continue to do in a worldly manner and laugh like hell doing it.
Thank you Mr. Jonathan Winters for getting me to see how absurd the world can be and being able to laugh at it.

p.s. I hope you get a DVD together of all of your performances. I know that it would be a hit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.67.22.200 (talk) 02:07, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
