Wind Squid Hall of Remembrance

I didn't realize Arleen Sorkin died until I started playing the Arkham Trilogy and it said in memory of Arleen Sorkin and Kevin Conroy. This is the first I've heard of Richard Moll dying. This sucks...

Cervantes 58 years means Ms. Kodama getting on, but not old enough to just drop off.  I wonder if it was karoshi ('work to death').

dschult3 Fun fact: she got her Harley Quin credentials from a role in a show called Days of our Lives, which has been a favourite of my mum's for decades.

"Sorkin started her career as part of the comedy group The High-Heeled Women in the late 1970s and early 1980s. She played several prominent roles, including Calliope Jones on Days of Our Lives from 1984–1990, 1992, 2006, and 2010, Geneva on Duet, and was the original female co-host on America's Funniest People. Sorkin also wrote for Tiny Toon Adventures and co-wrote the screenplay for Picture Perfect. She provided the inspiration and voice for the animated character Harley Quinn in Batman: The Animated Series and other DC projects. From 1995 until her death, Sorkin was married to television writer-producer Christopher Lloyd, with whom she had two sons, Eli and Owen."

Bull from Night Court: 1943-2023

Played Bull on the show Night Court

I used to watch that show for a stupid laugh every now and then.  However, I stopped when a person left their girlfriend, because he was in a relationship with a fish.  That was the dumbest thing I had ever seen on TV.

Oh, and I had a friend who went to tapings of the show.  Springer's quote is hilarious here.  They were all local actors at one point.  A racist in the first episode would turn into a "loser baby daddy" 45 minutes later, while the MC encouraged the crowd to chant "fight" or "Steeeeeeeeeve" at times.  The whole show was fake.  It was probably real in the 80s, but that didn't last long.  What an era for TV.

Virgil (1962-2024)



Virgil was valet for the Million Dollar Man, and member of the greatest faction of all time, the nWo. RIP Virgil and its always nWo 4 life.

(True story: I met Virgil in the early days of his legendary convention appearances and we sifted through some Japanese wrestling VHS tapes and talked wrestling, as his booth was across from the bootleg tape trader that was selling the tapes. He was a cool dude to me)
