Rob Reiner has died at the age of 78. Reiner became famous with his role as Mike — aka Meathead — on the Norman Lear TV sitcom All in the Family. After leaving the series, he became a successful director, with movies including This Is Spinal Tap, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally... and A Few Good Men. He and his wife Michele were found dead by homicide inside their Brentwood, Calif. home on Dec. 14, TMZ reports.

RIP Meathead

CNN just reported it as the family has released a statement confirming it. Such a tragedy.

Sad. Kind of lost in the legend of Archie Bunker was Reiner’s portrayal of the excellent Mike Stivic character. The real life Reiner shown through in it and the very real issues he brought awareness to playing that role were spot on. He was a legend in his own right.

 

Though many would argue Spinal Tap is his tour-de-force. I know I’d rate it an 11 out of 10.

I'd actually put Stand By Me as my favorite of his films.  As a youth coming of age around this same time it became a landmark movie for me.   And now that I think about the ending of the film,  when he was at the computer thinking about how his best friend had died breaking up a fight, even though it's fiction it adds to the poignancy of the moment.   RIP 

 

Also I rank All in the Family as the most important sitcom of all time.  They fearlessly attacked touchy subjects like racism with the satire and ridicule they deserve.

The Meathead was stifled?😳

RIP.  Stand by Me is easily top ten all time on my list.
