Ranked: These Comedians Have Made Us Laugh For Decades

13. John Candy

John Candy is another comic who left us way too soon. After getting a few small roles in films like The ABC Afternoon Playbreak, he went on to receive a regular role in Dr. Zonk and the Zunkins.

His breakout role in cinema was considered to be as the playboy brother of Tom Hanks in 1984’s Splash. Sadly, he died in 1994 of a suspected heart attack. While his career was far too short, he provided us with many laughs to last a lifetime.
