Things aren’t looking good for Rodney. Then again, this would be his fourth hospitalization since March 2000. Stay tuned.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – More than a week after undergoing heart surgery, comedian Rodney Dangerfield remains hospitalized in intensive care and hooked to a respirator, his publicist said on Thursday.

The 82-year-old comic– famed for his self-deprecating one-liners and the catch phrase, “I can’t get no respect”– underwent a heart valve replacement at the UCLA Medical Center last Wednesday.
