Who Should Be On The 2017 Deathlist?

[The Mad Hatter 1,092]

Has anyone thought of adding Richard O'Sullivan?

nope.

[The Mad Hatter 1,092]

John Newman should not be underestimated remember he is 27 next year. Also do not underestimate Stefan Karl Stassfanson lazy town was very popular in its hay day and the guy has become a meme.

[Book 3,557]

Stefan Karl Stassfanson

[Book 3,557]

Helmut Kohl

Gunther von Hagens

Benedict XVI

Hans-Jochen Vogel

Who?

I bet he's related to Luke Halquinn and Joey Freak.

*Good choice - A play Parsons was in closed earlier this year and she has been retired since then. Could be a situation like Strich where theater work is what she lived for and dies right after quitting

 

Another good selection-Lollobrigida's family and her much younger husband are already fighting in court,usually a sign death is not far behind when people are vulturing for their cut of money(see Etta James,Casey Kasem)

 

Of those 5 women I would say Jackie Stallone is probably the worst option since she is still active and about in public.

 

Not familiar with most of the Germans name's but I would say Pope Benedict is a good choice if rumors that he is frail now are true.

Magnus Scheving (show creator): I know a lot of kids who love Robbie Rotten. I have gotten complaints from some parents that he is a bad influence. What should we do about it?

 

Stefán Karl Stefánsson: Oooh, I know! I'll pretend to have pancreatic cancer IRL so that parents can say to their children "see, that's what happens when you are a bad, bad person". I'm an actor, so I can make it look credible. Method acting taken to the next level.

 

Magnus Scheving: Brilliant!!!

[msc 18,479]

Does seem there was a trend lately for folk having the experimental pancreatic cancer treatment, only for the disease to come back and see them off. Vera Caslavska and Steve LaTourette being two which come to mind who thought they were on the mend, only to become DDP hits. Does make one follow the "recovery" of Geoff Fox all the more closer, and, dare I say it, makes you wonder how long Wilko's going to be around for.

How about Jerry Lee Lewis?

just an FYI for your signature, Frank Buckley died earlier this year.

Yeah but Jackie Stallone could easily go under the knife again at 95 and die from anaesthesia.

Dear esteemed committee, I would hereby like to nominate Baby Peggy for the 2017 DeathList for the following reasons:

 

1. 2017 is an important year in the sense that it will mark the 90th birthday of talking movies. When The Jazz King came out in 1927, that was the end of an entertainment medium that lay the foundation of every movie that you all have loved throughout the years. As Baby Peggy is one of the last surviving performers of the silent films, her inclusion would be a good way to highlight the anniversary.

 

2. Her status as one of the last surviving ones coincides with the fact that she was a major star back in the days. Her notability is undisputed in terms of being a DL-worthy selection. At her peak, she received over a million fan letters in just one year. That's over 3000 fan letters per day (!) So we are talking Chaplin, Pickford and Laurel & Hardy level here. In contrast, how many fan letters has someone like Liz Smith gotten? Not many, I reckon.

 

3. She is 98 years old so she would be a realistic hit by pure statistical probability.

 

4. She has struggled with health issues like pneumonia and, by own admission, won't be around for all too many years to come. So it is not only an age-based nomination.

 

5. She goes by the name of Diana Serra Cary. And, as we all know, Cary is the first name of the man who inspired the 30 years of DeathList (see previous post on Dyan Cannon).

 

Sincerely,

 

Predictor.

Wonder how many music legends will make deathlist next year? I mean, Glen Campbell obviously, but will anyone else?

Do you think there's a chance that Carl Palmer with die, soon, & have it be the first time, in awhile, I guess, that and entire band has died, in one year?

Viola Beach sewed that one up earlier in the Year..

[Exu 250]

Dead certs are Jimmy Greaves and Bruce Forsyth. Ms Gabor must be a hot. favourite.

An outsider for me is Brian Wilson
