 Accountant turned comedy legend Bob Newhart has died. He was 94. He first gained fame with a hit album and later one of TV's most popular shows, The Bob Newhart Show, in which he played a psychologist. You know Mr. Hastings? Oh, he's late. Being chronically late is a problem he's seeing me about. I don't think I'm making too much headway. And the series Newhart. I was an innkeeper in this crazy little town in Vermont.
