Why he might be annoying:

    He was extremely obese.
    He was extremely reluctant to disclose his personal life.
    Despite playing various characters on 'Trailer Park Boys', many fans remember him for his role as Philadelphia Collins.
    His character's name was used in the entertainment headlines to announce his passing, which had some people to wrongfully assume the singer passed away.
    He died during the filming of 'Don't Legalize It,' which halted production of the film indefinitely.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a versatile actor, as he acted in both stage and on television.
    In addition to his work on 'Trailer Park Boys,' he portrayed Big Ron on 'The Drunk and On Drugs Happy Fun Time Hour.'
    He suggested that his character on 'Trailer Park Boys' use the name Philadelphia instead of Phil in order to avoid a copyright infringement suit with Phil Collins himself.
    He was well liked by his castmates on the show.
    He provided some of the show's memorable lines during the series original run (ie. 'Whatcha lookin' at my gut for?').
