The entire 8:30 news programme, and the current affairs talk show after it, was about him.

Well, we are in mourning.
Oh, and not quite true, there was some Middle East in there also, before the weather.

Just a reminder, the phrase "Sometimes Famous People Die" is not correct. All famous people will die. Not just sometimes.
The same is true for all non famous people as well.

I loved it too, used to watch it with my Dad. I think he might even have the DVDs now. I find that a lot of people of a similar age to me don't remember it though. They remember Cheers and MASH and Who's the Boss? for instance, but not Night Court. That always seems strange to me, because I always thought of it as just as big a show. Maybe because my Dad loved it so much.

Re: BREAKING: Sometimes Famous People Die
I saw like two episodes back when it was on TV, and I think it was pretty funny and I sort of want to watch it, but it's hard to get now.

So sad. He went through so much and it seemed like he had finally put it behind him.
Some deaths hit me really hard - his, Carrie Fisher, Luke Perry.

Re: BREAKING: Sometimes Famous People Die
About Matthew Perry
Quoting because I don't trust tumblr to let people read it:
Quote:
“I've had a lot of ups and downs in my life. I'm still working through it personally, but the best thing about me is that if an alcoholic or drug addict comes up to me and says, 'Will you help me?' I will always say, 'Yes, I know how to do that. I will do that for you, even if I can't always do it for myself! So I do that, whenever I can. In groups, or one on one.
And I created the Perry House in Malibu, a sober-living facility for men. I also wrote my play The End of Longing, which is a personal message to the world, an exaggerated form of me as a drunk. I had something important to say to people like me, and to people who love people like me.
When I die, I know people will talk about Friends, Friends, Friends. And I'm glad of that, happy l've done some solid work as an actor, as well as given people multiple chances to make fun of my struggles on the world wide web...
but when I die, as far as my so-called accomplishments go, it would be nice if Friends were listed far behind the things I did to try to help other people.
I know it won't happen, but it would be nice.”
- Matthew Langford Perry
(August 19, 1969 - October 28, 2023)
