RIP, loved him in "Best of Show".

Phyllis George, pioneering sportscaster and former Miss America, has died



[quote

CNN) — Phyllis George, a broadcast television pioneer who became the first female co-anchor of the football pregame show "The NFL Today," has died. She was 70.

Her death was confirmed by her children, CNN's senior White House correspondent Pamela Brown and entrepreneur Lincoln Brown.

George was born in Denton, Texas, on June 25, 1949. A trained classical pianist in her youth, she attended North Texas Christian University before becoming the 50th Miss America in 1971.

That crown -- and her magnetic personality -- catapulted her to national fame. "It was the springboard to everything I've done in my life," she said in a 2007 interview. She joined the organization's board of directors, one of the first past winners to do so.

I didn't know who Jorge Santana was, but I do remember Suavacito.  Really liked that song. 

Fred Willard was good in so many things -- This Is Spinal Tap is one of my favorite movies. 

Phyllis George -- I remember when she became a sportscaster.  Raised a number of eyebrows back in the day.  She was a beauty.

May all of them rest in peace.

It’s really going in threes the last two weeks. Fred Willard was so funny in all those Christopher Guest movies. Best in Show, Spinal Tap. He was on The Simpson’s, so I’m sure they’ll dedicate tonight’s show to him, and he’s on the new Netflix show Space Force which premieres next week and I am sure they’ll dedicate that in his memory as well.

A Mighty Wind was so funny it made me cry.

Fred Willard was hysterical.

Phyllis George.......... a beauty, and almost exactly my age.  I'll be interested in finding out how she died.

70 is now very young to me........
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Frank Bielec, an interior designer and one of the stars of TLC's "Trading Spaces," died Friday at age 72.
TLC Network, which aired the series, confirmed Bielec's passing in a tweet, mourning him as a member of their "family."

He was living in Katy, TX.
My wife knew him fairly well.
He would go into her frame shop regular basis.
The last time we saw him, he had a booth set up at an Arts and Crafts show between Richmond and Fulshear, TX.
It was in October, and he had some Halloween artwork he had made, to hang on the doors, etc...
We bought one of them.

He died of a heart attack.

Ken Osmond, ‘Leave It to Beaver’ Star Who Played Eddie Haskell, Dies at 76

 May 18, 2020 10:54am PT




Ken Osmond, best known for his role at the troublemaker Eddie Haskell on the television comedy “Leave It to Beaver,” died on Monday morning. He was 76.

Sources tell Variety Osmond died at his Los Angeles home surrounded by family members. The cause of death is unknown.

Henry Lane, Osmond’s former partner at the Los Angeles Police Department, also confirmed the news and said he had suffered from respiratory issues.

Osmond, a native of Glendale, Calif., began his career as a child actor with his first speaking part at age 9 in the film “So Big,” starring Jane Wyman and Sterling Hayden, followed by “Good Morning Miss Dove,” and “Everything But the Truth.” He also guest-starred on television series including “Lassie,” “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet,” “Wagon Train,” “Fury”  and “The Loretta Young Show.”

In 1957, Osmond auditioned for the the Eddie Haskell role, which was originally intended to be a guest appearance, but those involved with the show were so impressed with Osmond’s portrayal that the character became a key component of the series throughout its six-season run of 234 episodes.

Eddie Haskell was the reason I watched LITB. Everybody knew an Eddie Haskell growing up. Playing up to adults while acting like a jerk when adults weren't around.
It's sort of amazing the creators of the show put a scoundrel like Eddie Haskell on a fifties/sixties sitcom.
Usually, the secondary characters have flaws but not quite the rascal like Eddie.

It's almost a shame that the show didn't last long enough for Eddie to fall in love with Beaver's most obnoxious classmate, Judy. They were made for each other.

Frank was one of our favorite designers on that show. He seemed like a really nice guy.

Ken Osmond found himself typecast after playing Eddie Haskell.  Interesting that he left acting and became a police officer in LA. 

Rest in peace, Mr. Osmond.

just tweeted that his wife, Noelia, passed away from a heart attack today. Way too young . . .

Apparently, according to local news, Mrs. Marte was in the hospital awaiting surgery on her ankle when she died. 

We think of heart attacks as killing older people, but sadly, heart disease can kill at any age.
