John Larroquette

Trivia

John Larroquette

Edit
  • In 1989, asked that his work not be submitted for more Emmy consideration after his fourth consecutive win for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series. At the time, four consecutive wins was a record.
  • Developed his distinctively refined speech pattern so he could work in radio. As a young man, he spoke with a traditional New Orleans style.
  • Had a bout of alcoholism during the 1970s and 1980s. Correction: He is a self-admitted, recovering alcoholic. He has stated this on numerous talk shows, especially when he got his own show, and the character he was playing was a recovering alcoholic.
  • Served in the United States Naval Reserve.
  • His role as a Johnny Carson-style talk show host was omitted from the theatrical version of JFK (1991) but restored in the director's cut on video/DVD. He actually wrote a letter to Carson just to inform him he was playing the part, and Carson appreciated the gesture.
  • Is not a fan of the horror genre, and has therefore never seen any of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies, even though he provided the opening and/or closing narration for three of them.
  • Collects leather-bound first editions and fountain pens. Also enjoys photography and art.
  • Liked playing Super Mario Land on Nintendo Game Boy between takes on Night Court (1984).
  • Has his own home recording studio.
  • Appeared in the Director's Cut of Oliver Stone's "JFK" (1991) and shares his November 25 birthday with John Kennedy Jr. The funeral of President John F. Kennedy took place on Larroquette's 16th birthday and JFK Jr.'s 3rd birthday.
  • Favorite football team is the New Orleans Saints.
  • Is a member of the Libertarian Party.
  • Father of Jonathan Larroquette.
  • Likes ScharffenBerger's gourmet chocolate.
  • Has a son who was a fan of 1990s group Fishbone.
