In the past 30 days we have lost John Madden, Betty White, Sidney Poitier, Bob Saget, Meatloaf and Louie Anderson. As far as I know none of these deaths are being blamed on Covid. Betty White was only a few days short of a hundred. Louie Anderson had been admitted to the hospital earlier this week and was fighting late stage cancer. It will be several weeks before the coroner releases any more information on Bob Saget.

Here’s a fun fact I just learned: Louie Anderson was originally cast with Bronson Pinchot in Perfect Strangers. When the show got picked up they didn’t feel the chemistry was right between Anderson and Pinchot and Anderson was replaced by Mark Linn-Baker. The Lou Appleton character became Larry Appleton and the show ran for eight seasons.
