Farewell to Jack Horkheimer, returned to the stars yesterday
I have fond memories of my childhood watching your show and hearing Tomita's arrangement of Debussy's Arabesque.

Keep looking up!

2. I watched him a lot when I was a kid
No one will be able to replace him but they do need to keep the show going.

5. I'm hoping maybe they could get Neil DeGrasse Tyson
He does Nova Science Now. It still won't be the same without the Horkmeister.

6. Well poo
Hey,
He was a pretty cool guy. I remember watching his little spots on PBS, a friend of mine would go climb up on his roof after he watched him to see what he was showing on his spots.

Keep looking up! and as always,

Peace

7. I always loved his show.

















Does anyone know if his wig is still with us?









I'm going to Hell for that.
