Damn. RIP.

I often refer to myself as living in a Newhart sketch when I appear to be the only sane person surrounded by a bunch of whackos.

One of the very best "straight men" out there. His comedic timing was top tier. One of my favorites for sure.

Newhart was a little before my time but he had a great career. Enjoyed him in Elf.

I liked Dobbs when he stuck to business, then he went in op-ed politics.

Saw this joke from Newhart and it made me laugh:

I refuse to believe Greg Kihn is dead.

Nah uh uh uh uh uh uh uh.

In all seriousness, RIP. He had a good run in the early 80s with 2 or 3 memorable songs.

There have been about 5 people charged today with involvement of actor Matthew Perry's death including a live in caretaker and 2 doctors for taking advantage of his addiction and getting him to pay for ketamine.

Jack Russell from Great White passed away as well.

I had seen some video of him speaking and knew he had some significant health issues. Apparently he had Lewy body dementia and "multiple system atrophy" which sounds frightening, frankly.

He'll always be associated with the Rhode Island fire that killed 100 people, although it's not clear-cut how much responsibility he should have taken for that. There is a good documentary about it I remember watching years ago.

Anyway, GW was a staple of the late 80s hair band rotation on MTV and had several big hits. RIP.

Another one of those people who have been out of the limelight for so long that you forgot they weren't dead already.

Miss him. He was a different personality from what you would later see in the daytime. He would have the shocking subject matter at times, but he was more interested in understanding the subject than exploiting it.

I would've thought he died ten years ago. Crazy, I just looked up and his show ended its run in 1996 (which, I guess kind of coincides with the last time I would have regularly been home during daytime hours and would have noticed it). I just looked up Sally Jessy Raphael and she is still alive at age 89 (show last aired in 2002).
