Talk:Bob Einstein

Birthdate
What is his actual year of birth? IMDB has it listed as 1940, here it is listed as 1942. SaxofoneDL (talk) 21:59, 31 March 2008 (UTC)


 * His own website lists it as 1942 -- you've got to figure they know. I've set this back. — 70.21.187.53 (talk) 10:04, 12 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Someone has reverted this to 1940. As the previous commenter mentions, his own website lists his birthdate as 1942. There are also high school yearbook photos allegedly from 1960, which would make him an unusually old high school student at 19-20 years old. I'm reverting this to 1942. — RealGrouchy (talk) 16:52, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Other appearances
He appeared on Roseanne in the last season, as the network guy who wanted to buy her story. Hollielol (talk) 16:16, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

I've added the reference to Anger Management but did it public/anon as I wasn't logged in. I also didn't cite any external references since all those folks did was watch the same episode as I did. --WRX-Nut 18:37, 20 April 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by WRXNUT (talk • contribs)

Original research?
Does the "original research" disclaimer from December 2007 still need to appear above the article? I don't see anything to which that would apply. Perhaps whatever it was has since been removed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.237.206.75 (talk) 21:19, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Personal life
What about a personal life section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.231.19.87 (talk) 18:13, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

What about suing his plastic surgeon? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.188.146.210 (talk) 05:11, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

Remove the citation-less part about a Dan La Batard show superstition about celebrities dying after being guests. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.23.172.235 (talk) 20:52, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

Years active
In the Infobox template, changed the ending year from 2018 to 2019. According to Bob Einstein's obituary at Deadline Hollywood, he had "recently been diagnosed with cancer" and "[d]onations can be made in Einstein’s memory to the Leukemia Lymphoma Society." As he was suffering from leukemia or lymphoma, both of which are severely debilitating diseases that sap a body's strength, and his death occurred just two days into 2019, we can be certain that he wasn't "active" at the time of his death. I think the ending year should remain at 2018. — Quicksilver (Hydrargyrum)T @ 21:19, 2 January 2019 (UTC)


 * What do you mean? I changed it to 2018. Rusted AutoParts  21:27, 2 January 2019 (UTC)


 * — Sorry, my mistake. You are correct. — Quicksilver (Hydrargyrum)T @ 07:17, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

No Relation to Albert Einstein
People are bound to wonder if he was related to the physicist Albert Einstein. And so, as it is the business of Wikipedia to educate and inform, I have included the information in the Article. 206.45.237.132 (talk) 00:49, 3 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Actually, he was related to Albert Einstein, just not the physicist. Your edit has already been reverted, because two unrelated people sharing the same name is unremarkable. It would be trivial and piddling to add such a disclaimer to every notable Einstein not directly related to Mr. E=MC2. --Animalparty! (talk) 06:07, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
