I don't mean to be rude, but is he really alive? I mean it he looks like one of those animatronic Presidents in Disney World.
I feel bad that people are still pimping him out like this...

I said it last year and I'll say it again, I'm glad to see he is still able to do what he enjoys doing considering what he went through. ...and happy new year. |

ABC took a lot of heat for putting Dick on last year.
Really, Dick Clark is "New Year's Rocking Eve". Period. All the other crews are just wannabe hacks. So what if he has trouble speaking. I think it's great that ABC didn't kick him to the curb after his stroke. People need to see guys like Dick, along with wounded vets and other people that just drive on. It ain't all "Melrose Place" and "90210". Good on him. |

Health issues can take a lot of out of someone. Frankly, I could care less what the guy looks like. I doubt many of us will look any better when we hit 79, if we are lucky enough to live that long I should add. |

Quoted:
He's so old he should change his name to Dick Trickle.  I don't care if you used the trickle word, if my drops land where I want then to. Why ? because I'ts not about what you think. That's why I got a 32 yr old at the feet of my 51 year old body. Age has a respect of it's own. |

I'm not concerned with "perfect" I am concerned that he is being guilted into doing the show. He's obviously still able to be in public and shouldn't be limited in what he wants to do, but he didn't seem to really be there. |

Personally I think he looked and sounded 100x improved over last year.. |

Quoted: With all due respect to Dick Clark, a guy has to know when to leave.This thread needs a poll. I say get the old guy off TV. Really, it was painful to watch him. These once great celebrities, politicians, sports stars etc., become unpleasant caricatures of themselves when they stay too exposed long past their prime. I want to remember Clark as he was - not some doddering old guy trotted out every New Years Eve just for tradition. |
