Celebrity Deaths

Shannen Doherty - 53 make the third TV celebrity.

Aww.

90210 does have a place in my heart. I was fortunate to have a connection to the Spelling family. One of my friends was a production assistant and became friends with the Spellings and some staff.

When we had visitors from Japan, I would put them in my car and drive up and do the Beverly Hills 90210 tour. It was really big in Japan. I could enter the grounds of the Spellings if I called ahead, take a couple photos and leave the premises. We'd go to the schools and the houses in Pasadena. We went to the beach house and other locations, taking tons of photos and ending up in Barney's Beanery where one meal would feed three Japanese girls.

I saw Bob Newhart walking his dog. I had to explain to the girls that he was a celebrity and also explained that if a show that they are watching ever ends with a dream conclusion that it was because of him.

That's where Columbo would eat his chili.

Hahaha, I should go look for clips of that just to see how the restaurant looked back then.

It used to be. It was a really good value there, I'm sure that's changed, but I would get pretty full and eat there at 3:00 in the afternoon and cover lunch and dinner. Very economical.

Hate to lose a funny man but 94 is a great run.

He was a good dramatic actor as well.  The episode of "NCIS" where he played the former pathologist with Alzheimers was very moving.

Oh yeah. Definitely.

Along those lines, Andy Griffith could play a bad guy real well if needed.

Thankfully there are five more Wienermobiles out there on the road. One of them drove right past me once, when I was out taking a walk.. They look surprisingly big when seen up close.

Six in total! Who knew? A task force of wiener mobility.
