Tim Curry is forever in my heart as the voice of Nigel, the patriarch of The Wild Thornberries:

but we owe him a debt of gratitude for developing Dr. Frank-n-furter during filming of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. that movie became my generation's salve from the ’s genocidal neglect during the pandemic.

he’s one of the ancestors now.

godspeed, Tim.

It went downhill from there, IIRC, but that first season was wonderful and so was he.

The former I saw when I was young and is why I cite him as one of the people who 'made me gay' (Significant part of my 'queer awakening' or whatever),
Clue was a movie I watched a lot on TV as a kid, and is still a 'comfort movie' for me.
