Judd Apatow has recently made a short film about Bob Newhart's and Don Rickles' friendship:

@John Key If it's not too late, I'd like to include Joan Ganz Cooney in my list since Shecky passed on 12/31. My updated list is as follows: 1) Jimmy Carter 2) Noam Chomsky 3) June Spencer 4) Bruce Willis 5) Lee Adams 6) Glynis Johns 7) Gene Hackman 8) Dick Van Dyke 9) Norman Jewison 10) Estelle Parsons 11) Ethel Kennedy 12) Joyce Randolph 13) Bob Newhart 14) June Lockhart 15) Michael Caine 16) James Tolkan 17) Katherine Jackson 18) Jack Hanna 19) David Attenborough 20) Alan Greenspan 21) Joanne Woodward 22) Prunella Scales 23) Jim Lovell 24) Charles Strouse 25) Roger Corman 26) Eva Marie Saint 27) Richard M.

Kinda wish Jim Lovell was there instead of Buzz Aldrin. And also wish David Attenborough was there. Besides that, not a bad list.

That's my entire Deaths of the Silver Screen III entry, lol!

Maybe Cheney

If she dies, will the headline be "Bucket kicks the bucket"?

@John Key Just to clarify, will you automatically replace one of our picks if they've died before 2024 with the first sub that we list? Asking regarding Shecky Greene.

Very sad loss.

After almost a year, we finally have a new update with the passing of actor, Richard Franklin, resulting in @Perhaps being victorious over @BabyBlue and advancing to the next round. The updated scoreboard is as follows: Neither pick is dead in the Dying Probably v. Bibliogryphon match. This continues. Neither pick is dead in the Handrejka vs Toast match. This continues. Neither pick is dead in the TQR vs Prophet match. This continues. Neither pick is dead in the Murto Sean vs The Unknown Man match. This continues. Neither pick is dead in the gcreptile vs WEP match. This continues. Neither pick is dead in the Captain Hemlock vs CalebH match. This continues. Ulitzer95 vs chilean way CaptainChorizo vs William1971 Joey Russ vs Sean Book vs time Salmon Mousse vs Great Uncle Bulgaria ThereWillBeDeaths7 vs theoldlady YorkshireBanker vs markb4 Perhaps vs BabyBlue (Thanks again to @Dying Probably for letting me take over this!)

19/50, new record for me as well.

He definitely gets way more flack for it than he deserves.

@TQR Shane MacGowan is a hit for @the_engineer .

Three US political figures in a matter of a few days. Wow.

So does Henry Kissinger give us the "Guilty of War Crimes" bonus?

Mo, his Jaani Dushman was from 1979. This is a later film with the same title.

I kinda assumed she was in hospice care already since Jimmy was. Guess I was wrong.

Was interviewed for the 20th anniversary of 'Elf', but it was an email interview: https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/07/entertainment/bob-newhart-elf-anniversary/index.html

Drowned in hot tub, no drugs or foul play suspected apparently. This death is like Robin Williams-level of shocking.

Sam Neill was in Moonlighting?

Is it necessary to list the subs since the pool has started already?

No worries. I figured there are a good set of TV series that have only 3 cast members alive, so they'll be good picks. But I forgot about that sub requirement so never mind.

Any thoughts on getting rid of the rule that a Tv series must have 5 living cast members to be allowed?

Congrats @Toast !
