Ted Bullpitt has driven off with the Kingswood in the big garage in the sky.

We'll never see the likes of him or that show again. Comedy is just too sanitized these days :mad

Maybe it was just a particularly poor performance but Mario Van Peebles effort in Heartbreak Ridge is as bad as any dead actor's. Like, seriously bad.

Come on. Stitch Jones is the the earl of funk, duke of cool, the ayatollah of rock'n rolla.

Damn... RIP Carrie. Such a talented actress.

I can't decide on what her funniest role was... was it the crazy girlfriend from Blues Brothers or was it the nun in Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back...

But her best ever role was as Princess Leia in Star Wars.

Might have to go on a Star Wars binge to celebrate her life!

She was perfect as Princess Leia--the perfect role model for me as a little girl. But * she was funny in Blues Brothers!!

Gees, what a year this has been for people leaving this world. I had just got over George Michael now I read that Carrie Fisher died. Watched a couple of Carrie's solo performance as a comedian and she was very funny. Not afraid to tackle the big issues. RIP.

 

[Aphrodite]

RIP Debbie Reynolds

 

[HBF]

RIP Debbie Reynolds.
She was amazing as Bobbi Adler in Will & Grace.
A very funny lady.

 

[Dramoth]

Constant companions as they got older, Carrie's mum couldn't stay away for more than a day...

#RIP Debbie

 

[DaVillaBlues]

Geez those photos of Debbie and young Carrie as a child/teen are really rather tear jerking.

Both extraordinary women who lived extraordinary lives.

Billie Lourd has obviously got her mother's humour. I love this from a recent interview she did before their deaths:
"(My grandmother) gets really upset when I get called 'Carrie Fisher's daughter'. She wants people to call me 'Debbie Reynolds' granddaughter.' It's very offensive to her. She does not like to be cut out. Not at all.”

RIP Mary Tyler Moore
