i have devoted my life to emulating this genius[jim varney]. i impersonate him in my comedy act in gretna louisiana twice a month!

I broke in to tears the day I heard he died. He stole our hearts with his Sense of Humor and his Funny Movies. We will never forget him.
R.I.P

RIP

I will miss you Jim and I was glad you came to visit me and my Dad we will all miss your humor in your role of Ernest P. Worrell

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM U WILL TRULY BE MISSED U ARE MY LOVING ACTOR (BESIDES ANTONIO BANDERAS) AND IT REALLY SUCKS THAT U DIED I LOVE ALL UR MOVIES !!!!!!!!!!


U WILL ARE MISSED AND ALL WAYS WILL BE

R.I.P JIM VARNEY AKA ERNEST (JUST LIKE IN UR MOVIES) :) :) :)

Never got bored watching him as *ERNEST* laugh my ass off watching the Repeats

His final movie, "Ernest the Pirate" (2000) had nearly completed shooting at the time of his death. For that reason, it got canceled, and was never released on VHS, DVD, or as part of an "Ernest" box set on anything.




R.I.P. Jim.
Will never forget you!

Jim you are missed never forgotten thanks for making us laugh

Dat reaaaaaalllllllyyyyy sux, dat he passed away, i wouldve luvd 2 meet him, he was da funniest dude in da world, he was completely awesome, ya kno wat i mean?

Ernest is my "guilty pleasure". Jim Varney's character was just as good as many, indeed better then some, of the classic comedy characters from the 1930's and 1940's.

Another good performance by Jim is the Billy Bob Thornton sleeper "Daddy and Them" with John Prine.
