Anthony Clark, a comedian and actor who is best known for his performance as Greg Warner on the sitcom “Yes, Dear,” died on Tuesday. He was 63.
His “Yes, Dear” co-star, Mike O’Malley, announced the death in a social media post on Wednesday. He did not provide a cause or say where Mr. Clark died.
“Yes, Dear” ran from 2000 to 2006 on CBS, in an era where multicamera sitcoms were still in vogue. The show followed two married couples navigating parenthood. Mr. Clark’s Greg was an uptight first-time parent, contrasted with his more lax brother-in-law Jimmy, played by Mr. O’Malley.
The show was, in some ways, a commentary on overbearing parents overwhelmed by advice from professionals. TV reviewers were mostly tepid about “Yes, Dear,” but it drew steady ratings.
When Mr. Clark got the role, he was already an established stand-up comedian with sitcom experience. He was a regular on two short-lived series. One was “Boston Common” on NBC, where he portrayed Boyd Pritchett, a Virginia native who ends up working at his sister’s college. The other was “Soul Man,” a Dan Aykroyd vehicle where in which Mr. Clark played the Rev. Todd Tucker. Mr.
Clark did not have to audition for the “Yes, Dear” role.
