[Jayson]

Barbara Billingsly died this weekend, now Tom Bosley... who's next? I bet Andy Griffith.

[Phrubruh]

I think Florance Henderson while on Dancing with the Stars.

RIP Father Dowling 

One of my favorite actors...

[Jesse James]

Penthouse founder Bob Guccione dead?

RIP, and I'll rub one out in your honor this evening, good sir.

[Morgbug]

Leslie Nielsen? Bummer

[BillCable]

Bummer

Don't mind if I do! (said as a sincere tribute to the exact humor at which Nielsen was the master).

[Hemish]

Man made me laugh more than any other actor 

[BrentS]

Surely this can't be true?

[DSJ™]

Surely this can't be true?

It is true and don't call me Shirley...

Nice Beaver!

Farewell our Edmontonian friend... Thanks for the laughs...

[Carpeteria3000]

ACTUAL RELEVANT STAR WARS-RELATED DEATH: Irvin Kershner dead at 87.

Bummer.

[I Am Sith]

Sad day today...  Thank you both for the memories!

[McMetal]

RIP Leslie. Awesome as a dramatic actor (Forbidden Planet is still a Top 10 Sci-Fi film of all time) - even better as a comic actor.

Hope they will run a Police Squad marathon at some point...that was some of his finest work:

"Who are you? How did you get in here?"

"I'm a locksmith...and...I'm a locksmith"

 

[Darth Kenobi]

Sad that Leslie Neilsen passed away.  Always remember him from Airplane and The Naked Gun series.  RIP

ALso sadden to hear that Ivan Kershner passed away as will.  Made one of the greatest movies of all time, IMHO.  RIP

[Hemish]

Another good one gone
