Damnit, as soon as I saw this pop up in trending, I knew it had to be because he died.

Frasier is one of my top 2 favorite TV shows of all time, and it wouldn't have been quite as good without John's performance.

I thought the same thing. He was great in Frasier. It wasn't that long ago that I watched the episode where they rented a Winnebago and accidently ended up in Canada. One of my favorites.

RIP 😞

I was just watching that episode today, it’s one of my favorites. John did such a great job with his portrayal of Martin Crane.

I always liked him. One of my favorites.

Oddly, in what all are saying was the role he was mist known for (in Frasier), I never watched it.

A great career that started at the relatively late age of 40.

Rest peacefully John

Thank you for the link. I am so sorry to hear this. Such a lovely man.

So sorry to hear that. Such a talented and nice man. He was great as Frasier's dad. But the first role I remember him from was in "Moonstruck" when he was the guy who took an interest in Cher's character's mom, played by Olympia Dukakis.

I saw him on Frasier this weekend and wondered how he was doing. That's sad. 77 isn't THAT old.

For the longest time I had no idea he was from the UK either. He nailed the blue-collar American accent perfectly imo

RIP Mr. Mahoney

Two years today since John Mahoney passed away... time does go by quickly. R.I.P.
