I always got a kick out of them including him on Big Bang Theoty. Doesn't he have a restraining order out on Sheldon? I wonder if they will mention him at some point. I hope so. They did for Leonard Nimoy. But since this is the last season, I don’t know if they’ve already filmed all the episodes.

I still have my signed Stan Lee t-shirt from winning that contest run by FoRT during the superhero reality show he did. He was always the Easter egg to watch for in the Marvel Movies.

Douglas Rain has passed away at the age of 90. He was the voice of Hal The Computer in 2001 A Space Odyssey. At the premiere screening, 241 people walked out of the theater, including Rock Hudson, who said, "Will someone tell me what the hell this is about?" And here we are all these years later & I still don't know... 2001 A Space Odyssey was one of my favorite movies of all time. HAL gave me the creeps, though. And for those of us who could never really understand what the film REALLY was saying, here's an article that explains it very well: "2001: A Space Odyssey — Explained Confused after watching it? This may help."medium.com/rreview/2001-a-space-odyssey-explained-228c2d551cbf

I love that Stan Lee wasn't afraid of diversity in his comic books. He was ahead of his time, in many ways.

I was just mentioning Stan Lee to a friend recently because I saw him in a movie (maybe Venom?) and I thought he was already dead. She told me it was his wife that passed on not long ago. I'm sad to hear that he is gone now, too. He brought happiness to many people with his talent! He will be missed and fondly remembered.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the death of William Goldman yet. The author/ screen writer was responsible for some of the best movies ever including The Stepford Wives, The Great Waldo Pepper, A Bridge Too Far, Chaplin, Misery, Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid, All The Presidents Men & of course The Princess Bride. He's on his way to better things as long as he can avoid the dreaded Fire Swamp.

Sending him on his way with gratitude for many enjoyable hours of entertainment!

William Goldman was a huge, huge talent. He wrote soooo many wonderful books, films, and more! His history is really fascinating -- well worth a look at his life story in Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_GoldmanRIP Mr. Goldman

Somebody's got to say it: I wonder if he's going to have his ashes buried in a pineapple under the sea?

I'm sad to see him go. Blessings to his family. Saying goodbye to both parents in the space of a year has to be hard.

Ken Berry was quite the song & dance man. For awhile he was being portrayed as the next Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire. I have to admit though I never much cared for Mayberry RFD.

To me, he'll always be the Brady Bunch neighbor and the Kinney Shoes guy!

What a sad life Jael lived. Even before ANTM, I don't think her life was easy. Then she dealt with drug addiction and then cancer. When she appeared on Dr. Phil's show when she was in the throes of addiction, she looked like a different person than the one we saw on ANTM. It was tragic. I hope she's at peace now

Oh, that’s a really tough one. I loved her and I loved L&S growing up. I’d read rumors that she wasn’t well. I’m so sorry to hear that they were true. Diabetes is NO joke. It’s a serious disease.

I had heard she was ill as well. I watch L&S religiously back in the day. And I remember her from The Odd Couple.
