I only just discovered White Collar recently . I absolutely love it and I was so sad to hear about Willie's passing . Mozzie is just joy and one of my fave characters . It seems like this cast had such a special relationship with each other . RIP Willie and thank you for making me smile when I needed it most
I watched it when it started and I was in college. Hated waiting for every episodes. Fifth season was supposed to end and because it was a cliffhanger, the fans demanded a sixth season. I only wish the show went on for longer. At least the 6th season being longer
I count myself very lucky that Willie replied to one of my tweets after the show ended. It was such a treat. White Collar will forever be my favorite show, and Mozzie my favorite character. I wanted to be Mrs. Suit and get to hang out with him.
I hsd the great good fortune to work on WC as the Assistant Art Director for the last 5 seasons. Beloved actor Willie Garson was a treasure, and I got to know him a bit when we found ourselves standing outside of the studio (Silvercup East) after the relatively big (for NY) earthquake that we had in 2013. Even during that somewhat scary time, he made me laugh for a good 15 minutes. RIP sweet Willie.
Aww, that’s wonderful. I wish I could’ve known him. The closest I got was he replied to a question I had about the finale on Twitter. He was so sweet to explain something I didn’t understand. He was just lovely.
I somehow had no idea Willie had passed until just now, seeing this video come up in my recommended. How truly saddening. Mozzie was my favorite character on White Collar by a pretty long shot. I always felt like I could relate to Mozzie the most, and he just always had that silly, friendly kind of way about him. Willie just brought such a great vibe to Mozzie that made the character feel so friendly and familiar right from his first appearance. It doesn't surprise me, though, hearing how the boys speak so highly of his ability to connect to people and entertain them in such a charismatic way. That's a skill I've always envied people for. Willie seems like the kind of person who would've uplifted any room he walked into.
God rest Willie Garson’s soul. But let me just say that it’s a joy to see these two together again. Very nostalgic. I think Willie would want a White Collar reunion even without Mozzie. I hope they reboot the series or at least do a movie. Mozzie was hysterical, but so genuine and relatable in that last episode.
