This is really, really sad. Richard Dunn was always one of my favorites. The Dunngeon is definitely one of the best moments of the show.

A boxer named Richard Dunn passed away yesterday. Is this the same guy? Coincidence? Wikipedia mistake?

roll truck roll: Not sure. Can't find any news on the boxer, but both Tim & Eric, and Adult Swim, have announced the actor's death.

What is there to say except for he was hilarious and I always felt like he was having a great time.

He was so awesome. I don't really watch the show anymore, but he was one of my faves...
He really just did seem like a great guy. You could hang out and shoot the shit with him...

Dunn never seemed to get the knack for being in front of the camera, and that's why I loved watching him.

It all depends on how one reacts to another's awkwardness. For me, his onscreen performance was reminiscent of Larry "Bud" Melman, and not in a good way.

In any event, I am sorry to hear of his passing.

I was a lot sadder when I heard this than I would have expected. He was a funny old guy who did a fantastic job on Awesome Show.

He seemed like a genuinely nice guy. Great job, Mr. Dunn.

Not entirely unexpected I suppose, but he's been a comedy hero to my friends and I since the first T&EASGJ. We'll miss him.

Good night, sweet Pep-Pep.

This makes me sad. I hope being on Tim and Eric these last few years brought him a lot of joy.

Bones for Richard Dunn, indeed.
