Huell was a National Treasure.
Did you know that several years before the closure and his passing, Stan sold the brand and recipe to a Chicago outfit? "Stan's Donuts & Coffee" in Chicago is now a chain of 30+ stores. The Berman family will get royalties for many years.
I was curious if it was the same stans... We love it
I really really miss him. He was such a genuine person and was so enthusiastic about everything no matter how small.
He inspired me to become a white supremacist
Yes, same! Think of him often.
Stan looks like a great man who just wants to put a smile on everyone's face and fill their stomachs
Huell had some great programs and genuinely cared for people, I miss his programs and his optimism. .
I miss this guy,wish he was still on tv.
+elchoya100 Me too. Although no one can replace him, I wish PBS would still have a similar show to his to carry on the tradition. Now, must plan how to go to Westwood to try Stan's Donuts. :)
His shows still air on PBS.
@@deathstar001 He had a "nitch"! God bless his soul. Stan's went down too as a business due to Covid 19.
I was in University City, Westwood ares and wanted to stop by at Stan’s. Should’ve read the comments to find out they where non existent. 😢
A real piece of California gold. He was the best
I did a Huell foodie road trip in 2019. I visited both Pinks and Stan's Donuts. The Huell was excellent and the milk was a nice complement.
This comment section is wonderful, didn't know either of these two but found out alot. Both great men, RIP to both of them
This has always been my favorite donut. I always tell everyone about it. I love it even more after the name change. Huell was such an awesome guy. RIP.
Huell was one of the most humble and charming person I had ever met. I was supposed to co-host an episode with him about the culture of the Mexican Lucha Libre (wrestling) scene in LA. But it never came to fruition. We played phone tag for while then sadly. he passed. His shows were a thing of simplistic beauty and his boy-like charisma made them a gem to watch. His shows got me through the roughest of times, and made me smile at the end of the day.. RIP HUELL HOWSER you were truly California's Gold.
I agree, he did bring a sense of the better in us all. I had a medical problem and was pretty sick, stuck at home waiting to see if I was going to make it. Pretty serious stuff. To cheer up I'd watch these tapes of his many shows. Funny as it sounds they did just that. I got to looking forward to watching them daily. Some of them over and over again (such as the desert episodes around Salton Sea or Newberry Springs). Was great to have Huell's old shows around to watch. Even dead he still provides us with a positive outlook on life.
Can't believe this doughnut shop closed for good stan's I remember this episode
The same space is opening a new donut store. I was there last Sunday. They were almost ready to go.
My grandma and I loved to watch Huel!
one of my favorite TV show's California's gold and visiting with huell houser you will great TV show miss this show RIP huell
Oh huell. I wish you had known your life had so little time left but even when you didn't you seemed to always live it to the fullest.
My father and I both had our hair cuts there in the 60's and 70's. I worked at Stan's winter/spring 1980.
I miss that donut
I met Huell once a long time ago when I worked at the Pasadena weekly. He had a bear trap of a handshake and was really nice. A true class act
Such a sweet man. For the past 20+ I've always enjoyed Huell. Sorry to have heard of his passing.
Well Hello There!!...Gone but not forgotten
Thank you Huell, thank you Stan. Sorry to hear Stan had decided to close down.....and I'll always miss Huell.
Impossible for Stan not to have been success with that great personality
Tonight is the last night Stan's is open. So long, Stan, and enjoy that retirement.
oh no! what happened? good luck to Stan!
@@clovano 😢😢😢
@clovano Did you not read? He retired.
I'm just now seeing this in 2024 and I want that peanut butter donut soo bad
@@davidmarvy6788same, I saw this video on my CZcams shorts feed and then remembered watching huel how see back in 4th grade and just had to click the link to the full video. Now I’m hungry, lol.
💔
An old world skill...now lost. Home made fresh doughnuts.
RIP Stan's Donuts
I always found myself smiling while watching Huell's programs. He was the best, for sure. Good luck to Stan in his retirement.
Farewell Stan's Donuts... thanks for the delicious treats and good times!
The legend. I think he is the OG before Anthony Bourdain.
I tell you what, if Huell was my uncle or grandpa, or even my dad, he'd have easily been my favorite relative.
I've gone to countless places he recommended. I remember in particular some old beverage shop in Eagle Rock that had NeHi he'd showcased; I actually worked right next door to that place for awhile. I even remember house-sitting on Rossmore, just below after it changes from Vine, and being pointed out Huell's LA digs...when he wasn't in the desert anyway. (thought for sure I saw him one day...)
It's a G@d-damnwd shame he died.
i love stans birthmark
Huell Howser IS California Gold!
I love California Gold but Visiting had some great episodes. Stan's was one of them. He pretty much said, "Come on Reeses. Sue me!" HA. Atta' way Stan.
Wow, its inspiring how Stan was hoping to live to be 100, so he could continue his passion.
Stans doughnuts is closing this month 4/2020 sorry to see this place go .
This guy really lived it up :)
God, I miss this place. Was never quite the same after they had to lease out a big chunk of the space, though. I would sit in their with my father and siblings on Sunday mornings. I recall all the film posters (probably given by the Mann Bruin across the street)
RIP Huell
What a great show!!
RIP Huell and Stan.
Classic. He will be missed by many of us. Christian. Home now at peace with the Lord
Who’s here because Stans is closing?
Still not over it. DK in Santa Monica gets all the attention now, but this was the real deal
Donuts went downhill over a period of time,after Stan left.
I miss Huell... :(
I miss Huell and his wholesome shows.
I want to go get a Huell Howser donut now!
Sure hope picked up the tab for everyone on that patio.
Well,after working in dough for a good long time,he just got old & wanted to enjoy the rest of his life as it is,Happy Retirement Stan 😉😁.
Huell was so nice.
After watching this I went here, the peanut butter pocket is really good
FULLmeltHASH Nice gona give it a Try! 🗿🚬 Here have a A Fat Toke of Some of California's gold!
This was posted 2016 but I feel like this is way older. Reese's wouldnt let this slide now I don't think 😂
God i never got to taste this delicious donut 😢
Huell was great! He is missed
Them donuts look so damn delicious!
Huell was the best.
The Simpsons were from the Tracey Ulsan show. Truth
I found out the hard way, but stan's doughnuts in westwood , NE of santa Monica, is permanently closed 😢
This video is 8 years old after all. Simplier time for doughnuts back then
I tend to agree we all miss Mr. Hansen. But I would think Mr. Houser would like us to follow him in his footsteps as a as a organization of a optimus group. Meaning we could create optimistic group that way follow on Huell Hauser I did before in the past and continue of Huell Howser
ohhhhh goshhhhhh oh my gossssssshhhhhhhh thats heavy duty chocolate 24:04 lol
love it
Huell Howser. Quality entertainment.
It's in California dude, how the hell am I going to get one of these
BTW his shows are still aired on PBS.
I never been to Cali, it looks cool though
Damn, I went to Oakleys for 25 years....
"The Huell" 🍩 doughnut.!!! ".Inspiring"..
Stan's is was my morning stop when I attended UCLA.
this donut shop closed down,what is there now.
rip huell
I wonder if they have any connection to Stan's Donuts in Santa Clara, Ca (Nor Cal) Stan's Santa Clara was started about the same time and they to are World Famous.....National Radio Host Mark Levine raves about Stan's when he visits the Bay Area.
And now Stan's Donuts are a Thing That Is Not Here Anymore. (sigh) COVID-19 casualty at least partially, the other part being that the owners wanted to retire.
Hated to see Stan's close. Sad.
🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩
Rip Huell Howser.
Stan’s Donuts is now closed ):. The last time I was in, an employee was complaining to him about being underpaid $40 dollars to him and Stan sitting down contemplating something deeply a strong presence of concern
Rockview dairy milk is the best!
show me the matches!
Make your own matches!
Any online name it's Huell and something.
Is Stan still living? The last I knew, he was in a retirement home.
He is actually married again and had 6 step kids and a baby on the way!
Unfortunately, Stans is permanently closed~
He died?!?! How?!
Died January 7th 2013. 67 years old. Prostate cancer. He is missed.
@@guidofester5451 I had heard he passed but not about the prostate cancer part.
Keep em coming! If you wanna contribute to help them making more of these episodes available contribute to their kickstarter: www.kickstarter.com/projects/kcet/bring-back-huells-greatest-hits?ref=7i6rtx
Weird how he got healthy yet still had a sudden death
Hewell suffered with Prostate Cancer secretly for several years. It was the main reason for his diet change.
No doubt Huell had many glazed doughnuts in his time...
wow,is laura valadez still there,she was HOT!.but i think this place is closed now with all the unpleasentness.
he was great. I wish he had eliminated the dairy from his diet.
I tell you what, if Huell was my uncle or grandpa, or even my dad, he'd have easily been my favorite relative.
I've gone to countless places he recommended. I remember in particular some old beverage shop in Eagle Rock that had NeHi he'd showcased; I actually worked right next door to that place for awhile.

RIP Huell
