  I'd be surprised that he could get away with faking his death for so long. He would have needed piles of cash that wouldn't be seen as missing when his estate was divvied up. For this reason alone I'm confident he's dead.

  As a performance artist, Kauffman was excellent. As a comedic actor, very good. As a stand-up, he was all right.

  Holy shit, sex with 42 women in one week. If he comes back, it's a sure bet that he won't keep up that pace. Unfortunately. AIDS sounds very likely.

  I remember the name, but I don't remember him saying or doing anything funny.

  Loved his feud with Jerry Lawler. Andy loved wrestling and he could really play the bad guy.

  "Loved his feud with Jerry Lawler"
  
  Don't forget that Kaufman was also the "Inter-gender" Champion!

  I'm trying to remember one time that Kauffman made me laugh....
  
  Nope...I got nothing. He was, IMO, a whole lot of goofy and very little funny. I mean, lip syncing to the Might Mouse theme? And that feud with the wrestler? I don't get it. And his bogus (or was it?) neck injury from the wrestler? Seemed like some childish publicity stunt, nothing more. Latka Gravas was kinda cute I suppose, but Jim Ignatowski, the drunk guy on Taxi, was a whole lot funnier.
