Rest in peace to the great Ed Asner, who died today at age 91. Of course I loved him on the “Mary Tyler Moore Show,” but his ability to turn a sitcom character into a one-hour TV drama in “Lou Grant” had me watching every season. And the opening credits, bird to bird, are classic.

Loved Lou! He’s also a good santa
I’ve only ever seen parts of Elf. But probably beginning with Rich Man, Poor Man, I thought Ed Asner did great in every role I saw him in. Probably first time I ever read a book/saw a movie (or miniseries, more correctly) with a character named Axel.
Oh! I was going to ask who the pin represented.
