‘Kroll Show’ star added:
“Carl created, wrote, and/or directed some of the funniest shows and movies the world has ever seen, including two of my favorites The Dick Van Dyke Show and The Jerk. In the last few years, he reinvented himself as Twitter’s most beloved nonagenarian liberal voice— showing all of us what it means to live life with vitality, vigor, love, and kindness until the very end.”
