Who was the very calm 70's looking guy that had a paint along type show on PBS from around I would say 1986-1990. Thanks for the help

      I love that show. To this day I still record it and use it as napping material. Other times I just like to enjoy the tranquility of his voice and see how is paintings evolve into simple masterpieces. He was a brilliant painter. RIP Bob Ross.

          Probably either "The Joy of Painting" or "The Art Chest".

              He was in an episode of Family guy (Not doing his own voice though)

              Peter Griffin was watching his show & he was painting "A happy little bush" the he said "& that'll just be our little secret" then he started breathing heavily, got angry & said, "& IF YOU TELL ANYONE.....THAT THAT BUSH IS THERE.....I WILL COME TO YOUR HOUSE AND I WILL CUT YOU!"

                    There's also a parody of Bob Ross on Homestarrunner.com where it shows Marzipan with the same facial hair and hair style as Bob Ross.

                          Theres some great clips on youtube of him.

                          He's got a real following online...if you go through the comments (or imdb), you won't find anything negative about him...

                          His show was great. I remember his show and New Yankee Workshop...for some reason I link those two together. Did they use to be on the same day or channel?

                              He was on an episode of "I Love the 80's." Boy I loved those compilations. A good, modern-day trip down Memory Lane...

                                  Patton Oswalt has a whole bit on Bob Ross and William Alexander's paint shows too.

                                  He says Bob Ross was the human quaalude, can't fall asleep just switch on old Bob for a bit.

                                  And he says William Alexander would get into surrealistic rages that had little to nothing to do with actual painting "And the mighty brush with which you will paint shall unleash the forces of Odin!"

                                    I would watch paint over and over and I still don't think my paintings could come out as good as his. It is like magic.
                                    What are you people!? On dope!?

                                      its really ironic how he died he was always relaxed but he died of a heart attack. I miss him.
                                      i read the never ending story and guess what?

                                      It ended.

                                        i actually went to see mr. bob ross once at a state fair. he was giving a class and a demo. but it turned out he died two nights before.
