Jim Abrahams, Writer-Director of 'Airplane!,' 'Naked Gun' and Other Zucker Brothers Comedies, Dies at 80

I can't say it better than (TV's) Frank Conniff:

Kentucky Fried Movie, Airplane!, Police Squad, Top Secret, etc... I mean, come on! All of these projects and more gave us not just laughs, but huge belly laughs. Jim Abrahams was an inspiration to me and I will be forever grateful for all the great comedy he gave us. Rest In Peace.
