Yes, Dear Star Anthony Clark Dead At 62

Actor and comedian Anthony Clark, who starred in the long-running CBS sitcom "Yes, Dear," has died at the age of 62.

Clark's longtime manager Barry Katz confirmed the news to TVLine, calling Clark "one of the funniest and most talented comedian/actors I have ever had the pleasure of watching. It was an honor to represent him and he will be missed for the joy, happiness, and love he brought to everyone he worked with and the audiences that were blessed to see his undeniable performances."

Clark's "Yes, Dear" co-star Mike O'Malley paid tribute to Clark on social media, saying: "Anthony Clark died yesterday. He was a hilarious guy. When my wife Lisa and I were dating back in the mid-nineties, Anthony was already famous in Boston, regularly selling out comedy shows. The first time we saw him at The Comedy Connection we laughed and laughed and laughed. He was so unique — one of those comics who is laughing along with you at the absurdity of his stories and observations. I was a fan before I was a friend. We spoke on the phone three weeks ago. He had us laughing loudly once again... Rest in peace. Tony." O'Malley also shared photos from his time shooting the last episode of "Yes, Dear" with Clark.

Anthony Clark first broke into show business as a stand-up comedian, performing in HBO comedy specials, and he starred in the short-lived NBC sitcom "Boston Common," which ran for two seasons from 1996 to 1997. He was later cast along with Mike O'Malley, Jean Louisa Kelly, and Liza Snyder in "Yes, Dear," which debuted on CBS in 2000. Clark and Kelly played married parents Greg and Kim, with Snyder as Kim's sister Christine and O'Malley as Christine's husband Jimmy, who moved into Greg and Kim's guest house.

"Yes, Dear" became a steady performer for CBS, lasting for six seasons and 122 episodes before signing off in 2006. Clark went on to host Season 4 of the NBC stand-up competition "Last Comic Standing," which aired in 2006, but he was replaced by Bill Bellamy in Season 5. His other TV credits include "Soul Man," "Ellen," and "Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist."
