leenorman Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Sorry to hear about Jay. I rewatched some of his Cheers episodes not long ago. Ken Levine wrote a nice tribute to him on his blog. I have only one exposure to his film career: (remember, I'm old-school); [loved Cheers; never saw Jay appearance]; but, I saw him in a wonderful film where he played a lousy, arrogant, gambler husband, Eric McKeever; wife, a 'sweets' caterer, who branched off on her own (Judith Light) for financial purposes to save their home; met a man who fell in love with her; she loved her abusive husband; and, moved boyfriend in with the family; and he and Jay (husband) who had become disabled; bonded; A Husband, A Wife, and a Lover (Wm. Russ - GREAT PART), 1996 TV Movie HE WAS WONDERFUL IN THIS ROLE!!!! If you get a chance to see it, the title of the film is not a good one; sounds typical (it isn't)....JK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie2 Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Oh no! Ken Levine's praises of her on a recent podcast episode prompted me to look into the life of Anne. She seemed every bit as talented and elegant as he said. My grandma is a big Topper fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvsbway Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 Monty Hall has died at age 96. As many here know I'm a huge fan of his daughter Joanna Gleason. In my research of Joanna I learned how closeknit the Hall family was. Earlier this year Monty lost his wife Marilyn, who was married to him for over 60 years. A Hollywood marriage that lasted. RIP to one of the greats. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
