Liam Neeson's wife Natasha Richardson is all but dead after suffering severe injury while skiing in Canada. She's officially brain dead and is being transported back to the US before being taken off life support.  :-\

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,509477,00.html

The brain dead is an unconfirmed rumor thus far, nothing official yet.

Natasha Richardson fans hoping her skiing accident is not as serious as some might suspect

Very tragic for Neeson & family, hopefully just rumors.

Sad indeed, but I'd rather die like that than to live through what Christopher Reeve had to live through (that's not living IMO) - my only brother died instantly due to a massive blow to the head in a car wreck 1/2 mile from my home when I was 14.

Wow, very sad indeed. :(

That's two Angel regulars who have passed on before the age of 40 now.

I read about Andy, but who was the other actor who passed away?

Glenn Quinn who played Allen Doyle in the first season died of an overdose back in 2002.  Unless there's someone else that I'm forgetting?

What a shame...Maybe Lucas will loosen his restrictions now on the Holiday Special.....ya probably not.  Sad though.

In her memory Bea Arthur DESERVES an action figure. Crazy as it may seem.

In her role she played the nighttime bartender of the Cantina.

However she had a prolific career.

I most certainly would PROUDLY display an action figure of her in my collection.

Come on Lucas/LFL, give us Ackmena!
