"I know that it works, because all of the grandchildren from 2 to 10 stay at the screen the whole time," he said. But besides the video chatting, they also visit him in person but stay in the driveway keeping a safe six-foot distance.

"They drive into the driveway, and we keep a 12- or 14-foot distance," Winkler explained. And while the "Barry" star appreciates the visits, he admitted, "I want only to squeeze them."
Production on the HBO show is currently suspended due to the virus outbreak. "Barry" was about to start shooting its third season but now the future of the series is unclear.
