Oh, my! They were such an integral part of the sound track to my pre-teen and teen years! RIP, Mary Wilson, and thank you!

George Segal has passed away after complications of bypass surgery. He did such a great job playing the grandfather on The Goldberg’s that for a moment when I heard the news my first instinct was to feel sympathy for Adam and Beverly.

I will admit the last Goldbergs commercial I saw I thought he wasn't looking too good. So sad. Rest in Peace.

I've always liked him in movies/TV shows. Even when playing jerks he always came off seeming like a nice guy at heart. He'll be missed.

Lonesome Dove was one of the books that I finished last year, I really loved reading that book. I had no idea that McMurty also wrote The Last Picture Show, a book I read in my teens and still remember where I was when I read it.

He wrote so many good books. I binge-read a bunch of them back in the day.

The great multi instrumentalist, vocalist, songwriter & longtime member of Poco, Rusty Young has passed away at the age of 75. Man, did I ever like that band. I still have a lot of their vinyl & play it often.

She was wonderful as Aunt Polly in peaky blinders. I agree, cancer is a bitch. May she RIP now.

I was so sorry to hear about Helen McCrory this morning. I was a fan and 52 is just FAR too young. She was so talented.
I will say that I was happy that I saw very few headlines about her passing that identified her as Damian Lewis' wife. Not that she wasn't (obviously), but it's so common that the press identifies a woman first by her relationship to a man rather than by her own accomplishments.

I noticed that too. Further, his name was trending on Twitter instead of hers.

That makes me mad. I didn't see any headlines regarding Damien , most actually said her name and of peaky blinders fame. It's a well received Netflix series seen all over the world. Sh4es had her own thread, in a few forums, he tweeted out about his love, that's what people saw I suspect.

Johnny Crawford passed last night. He had been diagnosed with dimensia or one of those diseases a couple of years ago. He was 75.

He was one of the original Mouseketeers before The Rifleman but I think he only lasted a season.

When I first got Disney+, I watched one of the first Mickey Mouse Club shows and was surprised to see him on there.

as a huge fan of Cher, Moonstruck will always be one of my all time fave movies, but it was Rose the stole the show for me. I was so sad to see this Olympia Dukakis has passed away at 89.RIP

She was on that celebrity rehab show a while back, so maybe it was related to her addition? I'm shocked as well. She was THE girl back in the day.
I watched "Here I Go Again" just now from the link in that article and it brought back so many memories. The music industry can chew up girls like that and spit them out. I hope she's at peace now.

Oops! I didn't check the dates on the video, but I looked at his Wikipedia page and still somehow managed to miss the date of his death. Thanks for the heads up. I wonder why YouTube decided to show me that video as if it were current.
