George Segal. I was just watching through Just Shoot Me again when this happened.
Also Jessica Walter who I know mainly from Arrested Development.

Yeah, I heard this morning that Jessica Walter passed away. That one definitely got me.
She was excellent as Lucille Bluth on Arrested Development and Malory Archer on Archer.
Lucille: "I don't understand the question, and I won't respond to it."
I've seen George Segal in a number of shows as well, like Just Shoot Me, and he was also great.

Yeah, I too was saddened to hear about Mr. Segal and Ms. Walter. I've been watching Dinosaurs on Disney+ and I didn't realize at first she voiced Fran.
EDIT- I loved Segal as the grandpa on The Goldbergs. My favorite line was from the "Ferris Bueller" episode where both Adam and Barry were trying to be Ferris while claiming the other was Cameron. Segal tried to be mediator..."Now, now, you BOTH can be the Fergus!" :)

That’s shitty, what a waste.
I like this video, DMX marking out hard for Rakim, it’s cool to see a guy like that with his tough persona getting so excited about meeting someone he looked up to and loved as a young man. 🙂

Wow, I just today (just before reading this) quickly popped into a random episode of SMW and was thinking holy shit, New Jack was in THIS promotion?! That’s an odd coincidence, I’ve never been a garbage wrestling fan, but I somehow always stopped to watch the new Jack train wreck. His promos felt like the real deal, like he meant everything he said, and I guess to an extent, he did. Sad news.

Funny man and legendary comedy writer Paul Mooney died today. The guy was around for ages and has done amazing stuff, look up some of his material and have a laugh. 🙂

Kentaro Miura died on May 6th, but the news only broke within the last few hours. Famed as the creator of the grim dark fantasy manga Berserk; which has been running since the 90's.

RIP to both of those creative geniuses
Mooney's influence goes back at least 40 years and his "reemergence" on Chapelle's Show 15 years ago was as much a tribute to that as it was a platform for him to be seen
Berserk is imo one of the singularly greatest works ever drawn. Absolutely NOBODY has ever drawn horror (and hope; yeah it's there) quite like him and to say that his loss will be felt is a tremendous understatement. His art was peerless and his story tremendous.

Ned Beatty at 83.
Another one of those character actors who seemed to be in everything. I'd been seeing him in movies and TV since I was a kid.
