Garry Shandling Dead at 66

I loved "The Larry Sanders Show."

Sorry to see this one go.
Comedian Garry Shandling died at an L.A. area hospital on Thursday ... TMZ has learned.

The 66-year-old star was not suffering from any illness ... as far as we know ... so, it appears this was sudden. A source connected to Shandling says he was healthy and speaking to people on Thursday morning.

Our source says there was a 911 call from "The Larry Sanders Show" star's home, and he was transported to the hospital. We're told Shandling was alive when he arrived at the hospital.

Last weekend, Shandling was hanging with friends Kathy Griffin and Bob Odenkirk ... who also co-starred with Garry on 'Larry Sanders.'

Wow, very sad, a rare comedic talent. Loved Larry Sanders, It's Gary Shandling's Show, and the dry delivery of his stand-up.

Ironically, his recent segment with Seinfeld on Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee was titled “It's Great That Garry Shandling Is Still Alive”.

RIP

Too soon - but when it's time to go, better to go suddenly IMHO.

Oh NO, 66 years old is way to young for him to go. Talented man from Tucson, AZ who will be missed. RIP Garry.
