Robert Morse reportedly dead aged 90: https://abc7.com/robert-morse-dead-obituary-mad-men/11775650/

 

Might have preferred Broadway thread but this is where he is mentioned. Without looking, he's probably a DDP pick as he has been for years.

 

Was still acting on stage till just before the pandemic started too. Alongside Mad Men, he was good playing Dominick Dunne in The People vs OJ Simpson. Another name I considered for my Oldies team but he seemed a regular DDP pick, which is good news for Lullabye-bye of Broadway who get a DDP unique when the cert QO shows up!

Several roles in Star Trek, none of which gain him a Scavvy Hunt nomination.

The Sopranos' 20th anniversary had the various living castmembers pop up here and there, and Tony Sirico isn't looking that great. Hey T, did you hear what I said? I said Tony Sirico isn't looking that great.

 

Tony Sirico is not looking great, he’s dead:

Ah, sorry to hear of this. I didn't know the name written down but I recognised the face instantly from lots of 90s American TV! Beyond the various Treks and 24 (iirc he has a pretty major role in that), I remember him as the Mayor of Eerie, Indiana, in the cult 90s kids TV series!

Another day, another reddit post announcing the death of an actor from The Wire. This time it's Al Brown who played Stan Valchek. Curious how the character has his own wiki page but the actor doesn't, must be very rare.
