I could get mad, but 77 is a good run.

Mary Tyler Moore passed away a few days ago to start the year off

Is it wrong that my first reaction was to go and rewatch the chestburster scene?

And Miguel Ferrer a few days before that.

NPR's website of all places featured that scene in their announcement of his passage.

Poor guy had cancer. At least he's hurting no more. :smallfrown:

RIP. I binge watched The Storyteller this weekend, and I have been on a huge Watership Down kick lately. It is time for Hazel to go with the Black Rabbit of Inlé. He was always brilliant, and involved in so many things I've loved. Thanks for everything!

Don't worry, guys. Before too long, he'll be back as Christopher Eccleston.

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.

Oh, I liked him too. His Aragorn was both rough, as befitting a man who made a living out in the wild, yet also noble, as befitting a king.
