OH MAN! Yet another great legend leaves us this year! I'm very familiar of the works of the "ZAZ" team; with Jim Abrahams being the "A" between the two Zs, brothers David and Jerry Zucker. I know they worked with Leslie Nielsen a lot; Airplane! and the Police Squad! TV series that led to The Naked Gun and its two sequels. I grew up watching the first Naked Gun, and I did watch the two sequels as well! Thank you so much, Jim Abrahams, for that film and so many others you and the Zucker brothers cooked up.

May Jim Abrahams rest in peace now. :(
