Leon Redbone sings Auld Lang Syne with some help from Merv
Merv Griffin has died. He was 82.
My sincere sympathy to his friends and family.
I was unable to find a clip of one of may favorite Merv Griffin TV memories. Viva was one of his guests. He leaned over - pushed back her hair and said, "You're so pretty. Why do you hide your face?" Years later I met Viva at an anti-Iraq-war demonstration. It was fun to talk to her about that interview.
Please share your Merv Griffin memories in the comments
Update: Don't miss QuickSilver's dairy 'Merv Griffin died a closeted homosexual'
