Not the biggest LazyTown fan, but this guy deserves more respect than so many people. A true legend and I hope he’s finally at peace. RIP.

If I may quote Cyndi Seidelman of Game Show Garbage...

F**K CANCER!!!

Really sad about this. I wasn't a huge fan of Lazy Town growing up, but his performance as Robbie Rotten was so endearing that I couldn't help but be a little invested when I was younger.
Stef was a beautiful soul and I smile every time I think about the beautiful relationship he had with his fans, and all the things they did for each other. And it all started with a meme.

I heard about that and was very sad.

Not shocked because we knew his time was coming, but sad, because Lazytown was one of my favorite shows during my Nick Jr. days.

I agree; I was never a fan of Lazy Town, but did get to see Stefan Carl play the Grinch in Boston once. So horrible what happened. RIP Forever Stefan Carl!!
