One of our favorite TV shows from the late 70s was NBC television's Real People,

a celebration of everyday folks doing extraordinary things, like a guy who ate soil,

Terry Fox, a one-leg man who ran across Canada, and a couple who try to sell at their roadside store a pencil for a million dollars.

Real People was hosted by an ensemble that included the recently departed comedian Fred Willard.

The show put a spotlight on people's triumph and helped introduce eccentric luminaries like Richard Simmons.

Today, Brian Sweeney breaks his silence to take a look at the life of comedy legend Fred Willard.

From his parody of late night talk shows to celebrating everyday goofballs on real people to being a key player in Christopher Guest's mockumentaries like Waiting for Guffman and Best in Show.

Plus, Entertainment Weekly puts a brick among a menagerie of crudely drawn LGBTQ celebrities for their Pride magazine cover.
